Whatfix Expands Its Deployment to Generali Global Corporate & Commercial’s AGORA Underwriting Platform Across 27 Countries

AI-powered in-app guidance, analytics, and intelligent agents to support global underwriting operations

SAN JOSE, Calif. and BANGALORE, India, July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Whatfix, the global leader in agentic digital adoption platforms (DAPs) for enterprises, today announced that Generali Global Corporate & Commercial (GC&C) has deployed Whatfix to drive agentic digital adoption across AGORA, its global underwriting platform, deployed in 27 countries across Europe, the United Kingdom, Asia, and North America.

Since its initial rollout in Portugal in 2021, Whatfix has scaled across the Generali Group to support teams in Italy, Switzerland, and most recently, the UK. Building on these outcomes, Generali has started implementing Whatfix within its Global Corporate & Commercial (GC&C) business unit through a gradual rollout designed to progressively engage all countries where AGORA is deployed. This marks the first deployment of Whatfix within GC&C and further establishes the platform as a key enabler of digital adoption across the broader Generali ecosystem.

AGORA: The Single Entry Point for Global Underwriting

AGORA serves as the foundation of Generali GC&C’s underwriting operations, bringing together risk engineering, pricing, policy administration, and claims-related workflows into a standardized global operating model.

As AGORA expanded across markets, Generali GC&C identified key challenges around user adoption, process consistency, data quality, and maintaining operational integrity across a highly regulated global insurance environment. A significant portion of support requests stemmed from users requiring additional guidance within complex workflows rather than application defects. To address these challenges, the organization selected Whatfix to provide contextual, in-app guidance and analytics directly within workflows.

AI-Native Digital Adoption and Analytics Built for Enterprise Insurance

Whatfix will deploy its AI-native product suite across AGORA, including in-app, contextual guidance embedded directly within underwriting workflows, and AI-powered analytics to identify friction points and optimize processes.

These capabilities are powered by intelligent agents across the Whatfix platform, with ScreenSense dynamically understanding user context and intent to deliver real-time, relevant support within workflows.

Expected Business Outcomes

The initiative is designed to:

Reduce IT support dependency through real-time, in-app assistanceAccelerate underwriter readiness and time-to-proficiency globallyImprove adoption of continuous platform updates through contextual in-app guidanceEnable consistent underwriting experiences across 27 countries

“AGORA is central to how we serve our global corporate clients,” said Matthew Richardson, Global Head of Operations, Generali Global Corporate & Commercial. “Success starts with deploying technology but is realized by ensuring users can confidently follow the right process, every time. For us, Whatfix is less a training add-on and more an adoption control. It helps us reduce avoidable support demand, reinforce the right path, and deliver a more consistent experience across countries.”

“Enterprise insurers operate in highly regulated, complex environments where every workflow matters,” said Khadim Batti, Co-Founder and CEO of Whatfix. “By combining AI agents, and contextual guidance with analytics within AGORA, Generali GC&C is transforming how underwriting teams interact with technology; making adoption and outcomes continuous, intelligent, and measurable.”

As Generali GC&C continues to evolve AGORA, the focus is shifting from deployment to value realization, improving user proficiency, strengthening service stability, building trust in data, and creating a foundation for scalable innovation across global underwriting operations.

This announcement builds on findings from a recent Whatfix commissioned study with Forrester Consulting, underscoring the critical role of digital adoption in translating enterprise technology and AI investments into measurable outcomes at scale.

AglaiaSense and Leopard Imaging to Demonstrate Privacy-First AI Traffic Sensing at Smart City Expo World Congress in Barcelona

Published

on

By

FREMONT, Calif. and BARCELONA, Spain, Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — AglaiaSense and Leopard Imaging will exhibit together at Smart City Expo World Congress, November 3–5, 2026, at Fira Barcelona Gran Vía.

The two companies proposed AI-VIVA (Vision Intelligence for València and Arterials) and is selected as a finalist in the fifth urban challenge of Barcelona Innova Lab Mobility (BILM), on the application of artificial intelligence to traffic-light regulation. AI-VIVA combines AglaiaSense’s edge-AI traffic solutions with Leopard Imaging’s patented privacy architecture. At the show, the team will give a live demonstration of AglaiaSense’s signature MS500 and GS500 cameras, with the AglaiaSense AI Box, powered by NVIDIA, which adds local processing to coordinate groups of neighboring intersections.

The cameras analyze images inside the device, using the Sony IMX500 and IMX501 intelligent vision sensors. They count and classify vehicles, buses, cyclists and pedestrians in real time. Raw video is discarded on the device within 400–800 milliseconds, and only anonymous metadata is transmitted. Cities can feed that data into signal-control software to adapt traffic lights to real demand.

MS500: about 2 W average power, 1080p, powered from a standard NEMA or ZHAGA street-light socket.

GS500: about 6.5 W average, dual 4K cameras, with Ethernet, LTE Cat 4 and GPS; powered by PoE, 12–24 V DC or a NEMA adapter.

Both cameras: IP66-rated, −20 °C to +65 °C, mounted on existing poles, so no trenching or new masts are needed.

Bandwidth: more than 95% lower than CCTV-based monitoring.

“Cities want safer, smoother streets without turning every crossing into a surveillance point,” said Leon Luo, CEO of AglaiaSense. “Being named a finalist in Barcelona tells us the approach resonates.”

“Privacy has to be built into the camera, not added later,” said Bill Pu, CEO of Leopard Imaging.

AglaiaSense’s solutions are deployed across North America and Asia, and the company won first place in the Pedestrian Safety Challenge Hackathon, run by the Edge AI Foundation (formerly the tinyML Foundation) and the City of San José. In field tests, the systems achieved detection and counting accuracy above 95%. The City of Lakewood, Colorado, compared the GS500 with traditional IP cameras and LiDAR on real roads and found it more accurate, more energy-efficient, and less costly to deploy. At a high-risk crossing where pedestrians often crossed outside the crosswalk, the system alerted approaching drivers in real time.

Visit us at Pavilion 3, Level 0, Street D, Stand 71. To book a meeting, email sales@aglaiasense.com.

About AglaiaSense

AglaiaSense, is an edge-AI company specializing in privacy-first, vision-based sensing for smart cities. Its GS500 and MS500 cameras run AI on the image sensor to count and classify road users in real time and send only anonymous metadata.

About Leopard Imaging

Leopard Imaging is a global leader in high-definition embedded cameras and AI-based imaging solutions in industries including automotive, aerospace, drones, IoT, and robotics.
