Bud Ecosystem Launches Bud Novaria, the Hardware-Agnostic AI Operating System for Enterprise and Sovereign AI

Published

on

One native stack from silicon to agents; in production, a global fashion brand’s AI bill fell from $218K to $40K a month at the same accuracy

NEW YORK, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Bud Ecosystem today announced the global launch of the Bud Novaria AI OS (AIOS), the first AI operating system to run one native stack, from silicon to agents, across GPUs, CPUs, HPUs, NPUs and TPUs. Bud Novaria unifies training, inference, routing, guardrails, governance, agents and consumption on one platform, in any cloud, on-prem or fully air-gapped. Already in production, it cuts enterprise AI run-rate by up to 80% at the same accuracy.

More than 80% of the $684 billion enterprises invested in AI in 2025 delivered no business value. The cause is infrastructure, not intelligence. A typical production deployment spans seven layers and 40+ tools. Every tool boundary adds latency, erodes end-to-end accuracy and forces oversized models, a compounding cost Bud calls the AI fragmentation tax. Bud Novaria removes the tax at its source with one native stack of eight products under a single control plane: one pipeline, one trace, one governance model. Its hybrid router sends 60–70% of requests to owned, domain-tuned small models and reserves frontier models for the hardest 30%.

That breadth is the difference. GPU-bound platforms tie an enterprise to one vendor’s roadmap and supply; point tools cover one layer. Bud Novaria runs one natively integrated stack, silicon to agents, on 600+ hardware SKUs from NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, Qualcomm and Arm with no code changes, so enterprises and sovereign programs deploy on the hardware they own or can procure.

“Enterprises are not failing at AI. They are failing at AI infrastructure,” said Rob Rollinger, Chief Marketing Officer of Bud Ecosystem. “Every tool boundary levies a fragmentation tax, and under agentic load the taxes compound. Bud Novaria gives an enterprise one operating system from silicon to agents, on whatever hardware it owns, under its own governance, and every request makes the system cheaper, faster and safer than the last.”

In production, a global fashion brand’s customer-facing AI styling agent moved from a frontier-model stack to a Bud domain-tuned small model served CPU-native on Intel Xeon servers. Monthly AI cost fell from $218,000 to $40,000 with accuracy held at 85.4%. A national tax authority runs agentic AI for more than 60,000 concurrent users in a fully air-gapped environment with zero data egress, and a financial services group cut annual TCO on its back-office workloads from $2.4 million to $768,000.

Bud Novaria is available now to enterprises, cloud service providers and OEMs. Bud is Red Hat certified, a member of OPEA and the AMD Instinct ecosystem, and a Microsoft AI First Mover. A 30-day proof of concept runs on the customer’s own infrastructure and data. Full details: budecosystem.com/news/bud-ecosystem-launches-bud-novaria-ai-operating-system.

Omneky Brings Its AI Growth Agent to Slack, Extending the Premier Agentic Harness for Advertising

Published

By

Marketing teams can now brief, approve, and launch ad campaigns from the channels where they already work

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Omneky, the autonomous AI growth platform, today announced a Slack integration that brings the Omneky AI Growth Agent into the channels where marketing teams plan, review, and approve their work. The launch comes during Dreamforce week, as Salesforce, Slack’s parent company, brings the Slack ecosystem to Omneky’s home city of San Francisco.

A growth lead posts a brief in a channel and tags Omneky. The agent researches the brand and its competitors, proposes a strategy, and returns creative variants in the thread. Teammates comment and approve. The agent then launches the campaign, shifts budget toward the variants that convert, and posts pacing and performance updates back to the channel.

Slack joins Omneky’s public API, MCP server, and Claude and Grok connectors, all driving the same harness: the customer’s brand ontology, closed-loop performance data across more than $1 billion in ad spend, media buying across six channels including ChatGPT, human approval controls, and a router that picks the best model across Claude, GPT, Grok, Gemini, Seedance, and others. That is what makes Omneky the premier agentic harness for advertising. Whatever agent a team uses, Omneky is the layer that lets it research, create, launch, and optimize ads.

“Agents are going to run advertising, and they need a harness built for it: the brand data, the models, the channels, and the controls. We built that harness, and Slack is now one more place teams can drive it,” said Hikari Senju, Founder and CEO of Omneky.

The integration is available today to all Omneky customers at https://omneky.com/slack. New customers can start a free trial at omneky.com. To schedule a briefing during Dreamforce week, contact hi@omneky.com.

Linkind Light Stick Launches at tm:rw, Bringing Immersive Smart Lighting to Experiential Retail

Published

By

Linkind brings its latest smart lighting innovation into tm:rw, giving consumers a new way to experience dynamic, customizable lighting in person.

NEW YORK, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Linkind, a smart lighting brand focused on making expressive, connected lighting more accessible, announced the launch and retail installation of the Linkind Smart Light Stick at tm:rw, the technology-focused experiential retail destination in New York City.

The installation gives visitors the opportunity to experience Light Stick beyond the screen, with a dedicated retail presence designed to showcase its dynamic lighting effects, highly customizable color control, and ability to transform the atmosphere of a space.

Light Stick represents a new direction for Linkind’s smart lighting portfolio, combining functional illumination with a more expressive approach to ambient lighting. Featuring 50 independently controllable color zones, more than 120 preset effects, 16 million colors, and dynamic flame-inspired effects, Light Stick can create everything from subtle ambient illumination to bold, animated lighting displays.

With support for Matter, Light Stick can also integrate across compatible smart home ecosystems, bringing its visual capabilities into the wider connected home.

Smart Lighting You Can Experience

The tm:rw installation is designed to turn those capabilities into a physical experience.

Rather than relying solely on product imagery or specifications, visitors can see Light Stick’s color, movement, and effects operating in a real environment, and experience how multiple lights can work together to dramatically change the character of a space.

“Light Stick is a product that really needs to be experienced,” said Kevin Bright, Communications Director, Linkind. “Its impact comes from seeing the movement, color and depth it can create in a room. tm:rw gives us an opportunity to take that experience out of a product page and put it directly in front of people.”

The installation also reflects Linkind’s broader push toward experience-led smart lighting—products that do more than simply turn on, off, or change color, and instead allow consumers to actively shape the atmosphere of their homes.

Bringing Linkind into the Physical Retail Experience

The launch at tm:rw represents another step in Linkind’s expanding physical retail presence and gives the brand a platform for consumers, creators, and technology enthusiasts to discover its products firsthand.

tm:rw is built around interactive technology discovery, creating an environment where emerging products can be demonstrated and experienced rather than simply displayed on shelves.

“Consumers increasingly want to understand what new technology actually does for them before they bring it into their homes,” said Kevin. “Products like Light Stick are particularly well suited to an experiential environment because the product itself becomes part of the space.”

The Linkind Smart Light Stick is now on display and available at tm:rw in New York City and is available online at Linkind and Amazon.

About Linkind

Linkind creates smart lighting designed to make connected homes more colorful, expressive and accessible. From everyday illumination to immersive entertainment and outdoor lighting, Linkind combines smart-home connectivity with creative lighting experiences that allow people to shape their spaces around the way they live.

WareSpace Expands in South Florida and Enters Bay Area with $36.5 Million in Industrial Acquisitions

Published

on

By

The acquisitions add warehouse space for more than 210 small businesses in two supply-constrained markets and bring WareSpace to 34 facilities and more than 3.2 million square feet nationwide.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — WareSpace, a leading operator of micro-bay warehouse space, today announced $36.5 million in industrial acquisitions in Miami Gardens, Florida, and South San Francisco, California. The acquisitions mark WareSpace’s third property in South Florida and its first in the Bay Area, and will create more than 210 flexible warehouse units for small businesses in two markets where appropriately sized industrial space is increasingly difficult to find.

The deals add approximately 164,000 square feet to WareSpace’s national footprint and bring the company to 34 facilities totaling more than 3.2 million square feet nationwide. They also follow WareSpace’s recent $300 million capital commitment from Jadian Capital, and its first portfolio-level acquisition, which added five properties across four new U.S. markets in July.

In South Florida, WareSpace acquired 4900 NW 167th Street in Miami Gardens for $20.42 million. The 100,000-square-foot property will be converted into flexible warehouse units, expected to serve more than 125 small businesses, along one of Miami-Dade County’s busiest commercial corridors. The property has direct access to the Palmetto Expressway and I-95 and is approximately 18 minutes from WareSpace’s existing Medley location and 35 minutes from the Fort Lauderdale location, which opened earlier this year.

In South San Francisco, WareSpace purchased 161 Starlite Street for $16.05 million. The 64,103-square-foot industrial property will be converted into 85+ flexible units for small businesses in one of the country’s most supply-constrained industrial markets. Small-bay industrial inventory in the area has declined by approximately 5% over the past five years, with no new small-bay supply currently under construction.

“These acquisitions are in very different parts of the country, but the opportunity is remarkably similar,” said Joseph Ely, Co-Founder and COO of WareSpace. “Both areas are population dense, high-barrier markets where small businesses need industrial space close to their customers and employees, but appropriately sized options are increasingly difficult, if not impossible, to find. We’re continuing to invest in locations and assets where we see that disconnect and where our model can solve a real need for business owners across America.”

“Miami gives us the opportunity to build on the momentum we’ve already established in South Florida, while South San Francisco opens the door to a new market where industrial space is becoming increasingly scarce,” said Levi Cohen, Co-Founder and CEO of WareSpace. “Both acquisitions reflect how we’re growing — expanding in markets where we’ve seen strong demand while selectively entering new ones where we see a clear opportunity for the WareSpace model.”

WareSpace will reposition both properties into flexible, move-in-ready warehouse units typically ranging from approximately 200 to 2,000 square feet. The company’s model combines shorter-term leases with all-inclusive pricing and on-site services, giving contractors, e-commerce businesses, distributors, service companies and other small operators access to industrial space without the size and long-term commitments associated with traditional warehouse leases.

The two acquisitions continue a period of rapid national growth for WareSpace as it expands its micro-bay model across major U.S. metropolitan areas.
