WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., Feb. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — ORSS Project Inc. Introduces the World’s Most Ambitious Ocean Restoration Initiative

“ORSS Project is a golden key to open the new door to a bright and more sustainable future of humanity and planet Earth,” states Dr. Geetha Plackal.

Innovative Three-System Approach Promises to Combat Climate Change and Revive Marine Ecosystems

ORSS Project Inc., a pioneering force in ocean restoration and climate resilience, has announced the global deployment of its Oceanic Restoration Submersive Systems (ORSS), an advanced marine technology designed to restore coral reefs, protect coastal communities, and support sustainable ocean economies.

With the growing threats of climate change, overfishing, and marine biodiversity loss, the ORSS Project aims to reverse ocean degradation at scale by deploying 10,000+ units worldwide over the next decade to double the world’s coral reef footprint in thirty years.

UN High Stakeholder and ODM Worldwide CEO Ashraf Anwar declares, “The great oceanic restoration era has begun.”

The first deployments will focus on key regions, including Malibu, California, and the Great Barrier Reef, as well as the coastline of India, with expansion planned across hurricane-prone areas in The Gulf of Mexico, Southeast Asia, and the Caribbean.

Over 50 Senior Advisors, including Marine Biologists and Conservation experts, have joined the ORSS Project team.

Revolutionizing Ocean Restoration with AI-Powered Technology

“ORSS Project empowering our oceans, our communities, ourselves. Futureproofing reef resilience towards a sustainable blue economy and climate resilient tomorrow via harnessing AI, coral restoration, fisheries, tourism, and traditional community knowledge,” declares Dr. Jack Dyer, Project Director and Senior Advisor of ORSS Project Fiji.

ORSS units are equipped with AI-driven monitoring stations, which digitally track marine species, migration paths, and ecosystem health without invasive tagging. Each unit also features:

Advanced coral propagation platforms can scale reef restoration by harnessing 25% of annual global coral spawning transferred into secured, climate-controlled ORSS to thrive.Ocean cooling technology that mitigates climate-induced disasters, including coral bleaching and intensifying hurricanes.Underwater vertical-axis turbines provide clean energy while supporting marine habitat growth.AI-powered marine analytics, generating critical data for global research institutions, insurance companies, and conservation groups.

Dr. Geetha Plackal, Marine Scientist and Director of the ORSS India Project, says, “This project may write new chapters in the history of the blue economy based on its positive impacts on socio-economic development worldwide. ORSS can make valuable contributions to aquatic ecosystem conservation and R&D by providing data resources for the future of the field of Marine Sciences.”

In addition to the ORSS, ORCS, and CRRF systems, the ORSS Project will continually recalibrate ORSS systems equipped with eDNA for maximum positive impact. This will restore healthy marine ecosystems, acquire unparalleled insights into marine biodiversity and ecosystem health, and unlock new revenue streams for impact partners, investors, and coastal communities. To date, nothing operates remotely at the scale of ORSS systems equipped with eDNA to assist NGOs, governments, or Universities with monitoring and data collection in coastal waters.

A Sustainable Financial Model for Global Restoration

Unlike traditional conservation efforts, ORSS operates on a financially self-sustaining model, ensuring continued expansion and impact. Key revenue streams include:

1.Regional Licensing & Government Partnerships

ORSS collaborates with governments, marine conservation agencies, and private sector leaders to secure annual licensing agreements. These partnerships help restore damaged ecosystems while fostering local economic growth.

2.ORSS Eco-Tourism & Marine Recreation

With the rise of sustainable tourism, ORSS deployed will produce:

Guided ORSS snorkeling and diving tours showcasing restored coral reefs.Educational tourism packages with hands-on ORSS Restoration Experiences.Luxury eco-tourism offerings, including ORSS yacht expeditions and exclusive marine experiences.

3.Sustainable Fisheries & Oceanic Food Security

ORSS is crucial in replenishing wild fish stocks, benefiting commercial and subsistence fisheries. Through revenue-sharing agreements, ORSS will generate $1M–$10M per sustainable fishery while ensuring long-term food security for coastal communities.

4.Insurance & Climate Resilience Partnerships

Hurricane intensity has increased due to warming ocean waters, costing insurers billions in damages annually. ORSS cooling technology can reduce hurricane severity, translating to:

$50M–$280M in annual savings for insurance companies.Flood risk mitigation, infrastructure protection, and reduced business losses.

5.Carbon Credits & Data Monetization

ORSS generates additional revenue through climate-positive investments, selling carbon credits from ocean cooling efforts, and providing marine biodiversity data to universities and global research institutions.

The ORSS Coral Reef Restoration Facilities (CRRFs): Scaling Global Marine Regeneration To Double The World’s Coral Reef Footprint Within 30 Years

ORSS is establishing 10 state-of-the-art Coral Reef Restoration Facilities (CRRFs) in tropical zones. Each facility will:

Support large-scale coral spawning and transplantation into 10,000+ ORSS units worldwide.Use AI-powered monitoring systems to optimize coral resilience.Train local conservationists and marine biologists, fostering a new generation of ocean restoration specialists.

Strategic Collaborations & Global Impact

ORSS Project is actively engaging with:

Leading marine biologists & climate scientists to refine ocean restoration techniques.Universities & research institutions to collect and analyze real-time marine data.Governments & NGOs to integrate ORSS solutions into national climate resilience plans.Corporate partners & philanthropists seeking high-impact, scalable conservation investments.

Finatical Software: The Next Decade of Finance Will Be Built on a Structured Financial Data Layer

Published

on

By

As AI transforms finance, trusted and structured financial data—not better prompts—will determine which organizations realize its full value.

DURHAM, N.C., July 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Finatical Software, creator of Flash Reports for QuickBooks Online, today announced its vision for what it believes will become the next essential layer of the modern finance technology stack: the Structured Financial Data Layer.

For decades, finance technology has evolved in response to changing business needs.

1995–2015

Finance needed better reporting.

2015–2025

Finance needed real-time reporting, dashboards, and automated KPIs.

2025–2035

Finance needs trusted data for AI-powered decisions.

While organizations are investing heavily in artificial intelligence, many finance teams are discovering that AI is only as effective as the financial data and business logic it receives. Without a single source of truth built on reconciled, complete, and accurate financial information, AI can produce inconsistent analyses, conflicting recommendations, and outputs that are difficult to validate or trust.

“Much of the conversation around AI has focused on choosing the right model or writing better prompts,” said Shaun Pendrigh, Chief Technical Officer of Finatical Software. “We believe the real competitive advantage will come from building trusted, structured financial workflows that AI can consistently understand. Before finance teams can trust AI’s recommendations, they first need confidence in the data, calculations, and business logic behind them.”

Finatical believes finance organizations need more than access to AI—they need a governed foundation that organizes financial information into consistent, reusable, and auditable structures before AI enters the workflow.

That foundation is what Finatical describes as the Structured Financial Data Layer.

Unlike disconnected spreadsheets or opaque AI workflows, the Structured Financial Data Layer creates a trusted financial foundation where data, calculations, reporting logic, and business rules are transparent, reusable, and reviewable. Finance professionals can trace recommendations back to their source, understand how conclusions were reached, and maintain confidence in the decisions supported by AI.

Rather than replacing finance professionals, the Structured Financial Data Layer enables them to work more effectively with AI by combining trusted financial data with human judgment. AI can accelerate analysis, identify patterns, and generate recommendations, while finance professionals retain the ability to review assumptions, validate results, and understand the reasoning behind important business decisions.

“Finance professionals should remain in control of financial judgment,” Pendrigh added. “AI should amplify that expertise—not replace it. But that only happens when AI operates within a trusted financial workflow where both the data and the underlying logic can be reviewed.”

Finatical’s Flash Reports platform is designed around this philosophy by connecting live QuickBooks Online data with Microsoft Excel to create governed, refreshable financial models that become a trusted source of truth for reporting, forecasting, analysis, and AI-assisted decision support. By preserving financial logic within structured Excel workflows, finance teams gain the flexibility of Excel while maintaining the governance and transparency required for trustworthy AI.

“Finance has always required trust,” Pendrigh said. “AI doesn’t change that—it raises the standard. Organizations won’t gain a competitive advantage simply by adopting AI. They’ll gain it by building financial data foundations that make AI trustworthy, explainable, and repeatable.”

“Reporting was the last generation of finance technology,” Pendrigh concluded. “Decision support will define the next. The organizations that build a trusted Structured Financial Data Layer today will be best positioned to unlock the full potential of AI tomorrow.”

About Finatical Software

Finatical Software helps finance professionals transform live QuickBooks Online data into structured, trusted financial information and workflows for reporting, analysis, and AI-assisted decision support. Its flagship solution, Flash Reports, connects Microsoft Excel directly to QuickBooks Online, enabling finance teams to build refreshable, governed financial models while preserving the flexibility of Excel. Finatical’s vision is to become the trusted Structured Financial Data Layer for finance professionals working in Excel with QuickBooks Online.
