Infinitus Launches AI-First, Human-Backed Hub Solution to Replace Specialty Pharma’s Legacy Call-Center Infrastructure

Published

on

AI absorbs routine volume and human experts own every judgment call – cutting administrative cost up to 30% while ensuring patients get expert support exactly when it matters most

SAN FRANCISCO, July 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Infinitus Systems, Inc., healthcare’s agentic communications partner powering more than 350 million healthcare interactions, announced the launch of its AI-first hub solution, an end-to-end model built to replace the industry’s outdated, manual, and high-cost “call-center” hub infrastructure.

Unlike legacy hubs – or approaches that introduce AI into isolated workflows – Infinitus’ AI-first hub solution was designed to unite AI agents and human expertise across the entire patient journey. AI agents handle the routine 24/7 – enrollment, status updates, general inquiries, and more. Human experts engage where judgment or empathy is needed: exceptions, escalations, and anything clinical or ambiguous. Agents provide a warm hand-off with context to human experts so that they can be most effective.

Importantly, the model scales with minimal needs for seasonal headcount, as AI agents handle most of the volume. During a recent annual re-verification cycle, for example, Infinitus absorbed a 144% patient volume surge with zero additional full-time employees hired – proof that AI, not headcount, is what carries peak demand.

This launch comes at a critical time: as specialty therapies grow more complex, pharmaceutical manufacturers are actively seeking alternatives to legacy patient-support models that improve access, accelerate therapy initiation, and give better visibility into the patient journey end to end, without sacrificing the human judgment patients depend on. For manufacturers, the stakes go beyond operations. A patient’s first real interaction with a brand is often the hub experience itself – and a slow, confusing, or impersonal one can undo months of marketing investment before treatment even begins.

“Up to 40% of patients prescribed these life-changing specialty therapies drop off before ever starting treatment, often because slow, manual hub processes compound the cost and prior-auth delays that are already working against them,” said Ankit Jain, CEO and co-founder of Infinitus. “We built our AI-first hub solution to eliminate that bottleneck – but speed only matters if it’s trustworthy. That’s why every case that involves clinical nuance or a judgment call is routed to one of our trained, certified human experts automatically. Patients get their therapies faster, and a person is always the one making the calls that matter.”

Coinciding with this launch, a major pharmaceutical manufacturer’s leading brand’s patient support program has selected Infinitus to manage the end-to-end patient journey through its AI-first, human-backed approach designed to improve scalability, cost-efficiency, and patient experience, without compromising oversight.

The AI-first hub solution can reduce administrative costs by 30% while significantly accelerating patients’ time to treatment. Built on hundreds of millions of healthcare interactions, Infinitus enables patient support programs to deploy AI and go live significantly faster than platforms that weren’t purpose-built for healthcare.

Here’s how it works:

Digital Intake and Form Cleanup: Processes digital prescription forms (EACs) directly into Salesforce, using AI agents to automatically call provider offices to recover missing information.Benefit Verification and Prior Authorization Tracking: Instantly runs insurance checks to determine copay assistance eligibility while continuously tracking prior authorization status.24/7 Patient Support and Adherence: Provides after-hours assistance using pre-approved clinical content, coordinates medication delivery with specialty pharmacies, and provides ongoing adherence reminders. Smart Handoffs: Built-in clinical awareness allows the Infinitus platform to instantly route complex inquiries to human case managers, while summarizing after-hours conversations so teams can take over the next morning. Same-Day Insights: Leverages Infinitus Lens to monitor all human and AI interactions in near-real-time, delivering actionable analytics the same day instead of the standard monthly wait of legacy hubs.

Infinitus has been automating patient support workflows since 2019, and is used by eight of the 10 largest pharmaceutical manufacturers. With this launch, Infinitus is helping manufacturers move the entire patient journey from awareness through adherence onto one AI-first, human-backed solution, rather than layering AI onto the same fragmented hub infrastructure they’ve always had. 

The launch follows the recent releases of Clinical Escalations, a risk detection system that ensures healthcare AI agents appropriately triage patients, regardless of the stated intent of a healthcare interaction and Infinitus Studio, the first no-code AI agent builder for healthcare.

Supporting power-sector decarbonization, grid resilience, and low-carbon fuels across ASEAN

JAKARTA, Indonesia, Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Shanghai Electric (SEHK: 02727, SSE: 601727) showcased three energy transition solutions under the theme “Powering the Archipelago” at Enlit Asia 2026, held Sept. 22-24 in Jakarta, Indonesia.

As the premier annual platform for the ASEAN power sector, Enlit Asia attracts more than 11,000 attendees and 280 exhibitors, bringing together industry leaders, policymakers and innovators to explore advances, share insights and shape the region’s energy future.

Three Solutions for ASEAN’s Energy Transition

Tailored to the ASEAN market, the three solutions address key regional energy transition needs, including reducing carbon emissions from existing thermal power systems, enhancing renewable energy integration and stable operation of island grids, and providing low-carbon fuels for the shipping and aviation industries.

The High-Efficiency Power & Decarbonization solution is designed to help markets like Indonesia reduce power-system carbon intensity, spanning unit upgrades, fuel transition, and system optimization. Modular steam turbines for H- and F-class combined-cycle systems meet both power and heating needs while improving efficiency and reducing overall costs. Heavy-duty gas turbines can operate with up to 30% hydrogen blending, and coal-fired power retrofit solutions improve thermal efficiency and reduce coal consumption for lower-carbon operation.

The Grid Modernization & Resilience Upgrade solution addresses island-grid challenges in renewable energy integration, frequency regulation and voltage stability. It combines synchronous condensers, flywheels, multi-technology energy storage and integrated solar-storage power pods. Synchronous condensers and flywheels deliver rapid frequency response and inertia support; multi-technology storage covers short- to long-duration applications; and the power pods provide plug-and-play clean emergency power for remote areas and critical loads.

Building on the Jilin Taonan project, the full-chain Power-to-X Integrated Solutions cover wind and solar generation, green hydrogen, biomass gasification, and green methanol synthesis. The project has completed 8,000 tons of green methanol bunkering, a global single-bunkering record. Phase II, launched on August 20, 2026, targets 200,000 tons of green methanol and 10,000 tons of sustainable aviation fuel annually. Shanghai Electric is now extending these solutions to ASEAN’s shipping and aviation markets to support low-carbon fuel supply and shipping decarbonization.

Local Presence, Regional Impact

Shanghai Electric’s technologies and system solutions are supported by an established regional track record. Its energy equipment and services are deployed in Southeast Asian markets including Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam, with representative projects such as the Indonesia Pelabuhan Ratu 3 x 350 MW Coal-fired Power Station Project, the renewable energy plant in Selangor, Malaysia, and the recent Samalaju 500 MW-class combined-cycle gas power project in Sarawak, Malaysia.

These projects demonstrate the company’s integrated capabilities across traditional power upgrades, high-efficiency gas generation, renewable energy, and green fuels—laying a foundation for the three solutions’ further application in ASEAN.

During Enlit Asia 2026, Shanghai Electric also participated in the official conference agenda, delivering a technical presentation titled “Heavy-Duty Gas Turbine Technology for Clean, Efficient, and Smart Power Generation,” outlining its technology roadmap and regionally adapted solutions in heavy-duty gas turbines and combined-cycle systems. The company also hosted multiple roadshows and exchange activities, inviting representatives from PLN, Indonesia’s national electricity company, local customers, and academics in the energy sector to discuss fuel diversification and the development of Indonesia’s power system.

Looking ahead, Shanghai Electric will continue to draw on its energy equipment manufacturing and system solution capabilities to work with ASEAN partners and support the transition to more efficient, stable and lower-carbon energy systems across Southeast Asia.

JustMarkets: How Browser-Based Trading Is Changing Access to Global CFD Markets

Published

on

By

JAKARTA, Indonesia, Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — JustMarkets today showcased its browser-based CFD trading platform, offering traders direct, installation-free access to global CFD markets. As more traders move between devices, this web-based solution allows users to execute Contracts for Difference (CFD) operations directly from any web browser.

Trading Without Installation

The use of browser-based trading software may remove a common obstacle to market participation — installation. Traders do not need to download any software, configure the device, or rely on a single computer for their trading activities.

Users who trade in different places and use different devices may benefit most from browser-based platforms. The software becomes more accessible to traders who need quick access to charts and quotes.

Faster Access When Markets Move

CFD markets globally can respond swiftly to macroeconomic figures, central bank announcements, earnings news, commodity price fluctuations, and other geopolitical events.

JustMarkets’ web-based solution allows traders to respond to these events without the delay of installing software. While this cannot eliminate trading risk, it may improve the convenience of market access.

One Platform for Multiple CFD Markets

For CFD trading, browser-based trading terminals may be helpful, regardless of the asset class the trader uses. From forex and commodities to indices, stocks, and cryptocurrency CFDs, the trader can track multiple markets on a single online platform. It is particularly relevant in cases where traders monitor more than one instrument at a time or develop strategies based on overall market sentiment.

Simplicity for Everyday Trading

Not all traders require a complicated trading system for every decision they make. Often, what is needed are simple charts, live quotes, account details, and the ability to execute trades efficiently.

The JustMarkets web interface provides these core features through an uncomplicated web platform. New traders may find the platform easy to use, while experienced traders can use the web terminal to trade from wherever they happen to be.

Flexibility as the New Standard

Trading through the browser is part of a broader trend towards multiplatform trading. Traders are beginning to require greater flexibility in how they can access the market, including via desktop, mobile application, or the web.

However, the objective is not to replace other forms of trading altogether; rather, it is to provide greater flexibility to trade at a client’s convenience. For traders who require market access without an installation process, web-based trading offers an alternative platform.

Browser-Based Access Is Becoming Part of the Trader’s Routine

With an increasing number of traders moving across different platforms and seeking to trade faster in the global market, it is quite natural for web-based platforms to form part of the trading experience. JustMarkets has built its platform ecosystem with the provision of CFD instruments via platforms suited to various routines, ranging from desktop and mobile to browser-based platforms.

For the trader, the potential benefits include fewer technical steps, access to charting and order placement, and added convenience when following the forex, commodity, index, stock, and crypto CFD markets.

About JustMarkets

JustMarkets is a global financial CFD trading platform designed to eliminate technical “noise,” enabling investors to focus on what matters most: making accurate decisions. With modern infrastructure and professional services, JustMarkets serves as a reliable partner for CFD traders.

Risk Warning

Trading CFDs involves a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. CFDs are leveraged products and can result in rapid financial loss. Leverage increases market exposure and the potential for losses. Ensure you understand the risks involved before trading.
