Inspect2GO Introduces GovOwl, Its Brand for Cities and Counties

Published

on

By

The new brand arrives at NEHA in Kansas City, along with owl chocolates, owl toys, and games.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — GovOwl, the new government brand of Inspect2GO, Inc., debuts August 3 and 4 at the National Environmental Health Association’s Annual Educational Conference & Exhibition (NEHA AEC).

“The owl represents the agency leader who uses our software: watching over operations, seeing in the dark, gaining insight and wisdom.”

Why the New Brand

“We outgrew our name,” said Paul Smith, founder and CEO. “Inspect2GO described our first product. GovOwl describes our clients, the cities and counties we serve. The owl represents the agency leader who uses our software: watching over operations, seeing in the dark, gaining insight and wisdom. Plus…owls are cool.”

Local government is the backbone of every community, and the people who serve in it deserve technology that genuinely supports their work. So GovOwl builds it with people who have done the job. GovOwl account managers include former government officials. They’ve run government programs, sat through the budget meetings, and lived the paperwork. That experience shapes the software and the support behind it.

The GovOwl story began in California in 2011 as Inspect2GO. The company’s first government product shipped in 2013, one simple mobile app for food inspections. That app grew into a complete environmental health system, and from there into code enforcement, citizen portals, online payments, and community development. Agencies kept asking for more, and the company kept saying yes, expanding across departments and automating workflows agency-wide.

Learn more at www.GovOwl.com/about/.

Meet at NEHA

Look for the curious, eight-foot-tall barn owl at Inspect2GO/GovOwl booth #418. Grab some merch like a mini stuffed owl and caffeinated owl-shaped chocolates. Or, if you’ve got the skills, land a bean bag toss from across the aisle to trade up for our official mascot owl.

About GovOwl

GovOwl provides cloud software to city and county agencies for environmental health, code enforcement, community development, inspections, permitting, and online payments. GovOwl serves government clients in 11 states, grows steadily each year, and has a 98% annual client retention rate. GovOwl is a brand of Inspect2GO, Inc., a California corporation founded in 2011 and headquartered in San Clemente, Calif.

TORRAS Unveils Q3 Air Pro, the World’s First Dual-Layer Airbag Case Built for Outdoor Adventure

Published

on

By

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Better protection has long been one of the defining challenges facing the phone case industry. In pursuit of higher drop-test ratings, many brands rely on thicker structures or additional materials. Yet these measures often compromise everyday comfort and limit design flexibility. With the Q3 Air Pro, TORRAS is addressing this long-standing trade-off through a new flagship case that redefines the future of phone protection.

Dual-layer Airbag Redefines Protection

Building on four generations of airbag innovation, TORRAS introduces the Q3 Air Pro, its latest flagship case with a newly engineered dual-layer airbag system. Powered by Air Duet™ technology, the dual-layer airbags along its top and bottom edges deliver enhanced protection through a smarter, lighter approach without relying on added bulk.

When the phone is dropped or bumped, the sealed airbags rapidly disperse impact energy throughout the system and quickly spring back. Designed for greater resilience, the Q3 Air Pro’s dual-layer airbag works in two stages to further reduce damage risk: the outer airbag intercepts the initial impact, while the inner airbag disperses the residual shock.

Protective Gear Built for Outdoor Adventure

More than a phone accessory, the Q3 Air Pro is protective gear designed for outdoor adventure, helping adventurers stay focused and perform at their best in demanding environments.

Inspired by the air-cushioning systems used in performance sneakers, the Q3 Air Pro combines responsive impact protection with a bold, futuristic athletic aesthetic. Its transparent outer airbag reveals the orange inner layer and twin-ribbed loop structure, making the engineering behind its protection clearly visible.

This visible construction offers reassurance, reducing concerns about device safety so outdoor enthusiasts can focus on the challenge ahead and move with greater confidence.

A 360° Rotatable Kickstand for Hands-Free Use

Beyond impact protection, the Q3 Air Pro is designed to make using a phone easier in outdoor environments. Its built-in magnetic stand combines multi-angle support, magnetic attachment and wireless charging within an ultra-slim stand ring.

With full 360-degree rotation and a 180-degree flip mechanism, users can position their phone at virtually any angle, while 18N of magnetic force allows it to attach securely to compatible metal surfaces.

This enables users to take calls, follow navigation and capture moments hands-free from virtually any angle, without carrying additional equipment on the move.

Details Made for the Journey

Every detail of the Q3 Air Pro is designed to meet the demands of outdoor enthusiasts. Refined through 576 texture adjustments, the back panel is engineered to withstand sweat, dirt and everyday wear. Rock-inspired grip textures along both sides provide a more secure hold.

Inside, the soft microfiber lining features a topographic contour pattern and the coordinates of Mount Everest—a subtle detail created for those who are always moving forward and already looking toward their next destination.

Explore the TORRAS Protective Case Lineup

The Q3 Air Pro is now available through the following channels:

Alongside the flagship Q3 Air Pro, the protective Ostand case lineup also includes the lighter Q3 Rugg for everyday protection and the single-layer airbag case Q3 Air for more active pursuits. Together, the lineup reflects TORRAS’ commitment to creating diverse case options for the different ways people live, move and explore.
