on

Latest collaboration enables developers to leverage TwelveLabs’ video understanding capabilities to create new applications with the security, privacy, and performance of AWS

LAS VEGAS, April 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Amazon Web Services (AWS), an Amazon.com, Inc. company and TwelveLabs, the video understanding company, today announced that TwelveLabs’ state-of-the-art multimodal foundation models, Marengo and Pegasus, will soon be available in Amazon Bedrock. Amazon Bedrock is a fully managed service that offers developers access to high-performing models from leading AI companies through a single API. Seamless access to TwelveLabs’ advanced video understanding capabilities will enable developers and enterprises to transform how they search, analyze, and generate insights from video content, leveraging the security, privacy, and performance of AWS. AWS is the first cloud provider to offer models from TwelveLabs.

“This integration with Amazon Bedrock represents the next phase in our collaboration with AWS, making our video understanding AI more accessible to enterprises worldwide,” added Lee.

“Video contains nearly 80% of the world’s data, yet most of it remains unsearchable and underutilized,” said Jae Lee, Co-founder and CEO of TwelveLabs. “By making our models available through Amazon Bedrock, we’re empowering even more enterprises to bring video understanding to their existing infrastructure. Our technology enables users to search across their entire content library—from videos collected 10 years ago or 10 minutes ago—to find the precise moment they’re looking for in less than a single second, and then interpret and analyze those moments. This opens the door for all kinds of novel uses. Through the collaboration with AWS, we can extend powerful capabilities to customers and accelerate innovation across industries.”

Advanced AI Video Capabilities

Video is commonly regarded as one of the world’s largest unsearchable data sources, yet TwelveLabs’ cutting-edge technology turns it into a trove of accessible information. Whether it’s giving a sports network the ability to instantly pull every instance of a specific play style or commentator reaction or helping a broadcaster identify recurring themes across large volumes of footage, TwelveLabs helps teams turn their video archives into usable, indexable assets, unlocking both operational efficiency and new revenue opportunities.

TwelveLabs overcomes the inherent complexities associated with video understanding to allow customers to search video across all modalities. Specifically, TwelveLabs delivers:

Natural language video search that pinpoints precise content momentsDeep video understanding without requiring pre-defined labelsMultimodal AI processing visual, audio, and text simultaneouslyTemporal intelligence connecting related events across timeEnterprise solutions scaling extensive video libraries into accessible knowledge

“At MLSE, we are defining the future of the sports and entertainment business. Innovation is in our DNA, and we’re leading the charge in shaping what comes next. With powerful tools like Amazon Bedrock and TwelveLabs’ AI models supporting our vision, we’re accelerating our ability to create smarter, more immersive experiences for fans.” said Humza Teherany, Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer at Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment.”

Unlocking the Power of Video Understanding for AWS Customers

With Marengo and Pegasus available in Amazon Bedrock, AWS customers can use TwelveLabs’ models to build and scale generative AI applications without managing underlying infrastructure. Using Amazon Bedrock, customers gain access to a broad set of capabilities while maintaining complete control over their data, benefiting from enterprise-grade security and utilizing cost control features—all essential for deploying AI responsibly at scale.

TwelveLabs’ fully managed, serverless models in Amazon Bedrock allow developers to:

Create applications that search through videos, classify scenes, summarize content, and extract insights using natural languageBuild sophisticated video understanding features without specialized AI expertiseScale video processing from small collections to massive libraries with consistent performanceDeploy solutions with enterprise-grade security and governance controls

“Video understanding is revolutionizing how industries like media & entertainment, sports, automotive, and education work with and discover content,” said Samira Panah Bakhtiar, General Manager of Media & Entertainment, Games, and Sports at AWS. “Over the last year, I have consistently said that natural language semantic search is a ‘strategic unlock’ for our entertainment customers, as they reexamine their existing intellectual property and breathe new life into it. By bringing TwelveLabs’ advanced models to Amazon Bedrock, we’re helping our customers make sense of any video moment, unlocking the full value of their treasured video assets. Businesses will now be able to easily search, categorize, and extract insights from their vast video libraries, enabling new use cases and better user experiences that were previously impossible without significant technical expertise.”

The integration will benefit multiple industries, from media, entertainment, advertising and beyond. For example:

Film and TV Studios can rapidly manage video workloads from dailies, content repacking, and archive managementSports Leagues and Teams can efficiently create match highlights and create customized fan focused content at scaleNews Agencies and Broadcasters can quickly manage large libraries to find the moments that matterStreaming services can better package and distribute content across platforms and more effectively insert relevant video ads

AWS and TwelveLabs’ integration partner Monks expressed their excitement: “We’ve been putting AI to work across the entire video value chain for IP holders, broadcasters and brands. TwelveLabs in Amazon Bedrock makes it easier to realize opportunities for monetization in broadcast news, entertainment and sports by making it simpler and more secure to build and scale applications with powerful video understanding,” said Lewis Smithingham, EVP Strategic Industries at Monks.

Expanding Collaboration Between AWS and TwelveLabs

This announcement builds on a strong existing relationship between AWS and TwelveLabs and continues the momentum of their Strategic Collaboration Agreement (SCA). TwelveLabs is working with AWS to accelerate the development of its foundation models, deploy its advanced video understanding foundation models across new industries, and enhance its model training capabilities using Amazon SageMaker HyperPod. With the reliable and scalable infrastructure offered by SageMaker HyperPod, TwelveLabs has accelerated model training while reducing training costs.

“This integration with Amazon Bedrock represents the next phase in our collaboration with AWS, making our video understanding AI more accessible to enterprises worldwide,” added Lee.

AGEDB Announces Preliminary Technical Evaluation of Graph Database and AI Data Platform Opportunities

Published

on

By

VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 21, 2026 /CNW/ — AGEDB Technology Ltd. (TSXV: AGET) (“AGEDB” or the “Company”) announces that it is evaluating opportunities to re-engage in its historical graph database business area through preliminary architectural design and technical assessment of potential AI data platform applications, following its entry, on September 16, 2026, into a memorandum of understanding (the “MOU”) with a Korea-listed company exploring opportunities to enter the AI sector (the “Korean Company”).

The Company previously disclosed that it had discontinued its graph database management system operations during the year ended April 30, 2025 and was seeking new business opportunities. The Company is now assessing potential opportunities to leverage its existing Apache AGE-related technology and experience. These preliminary evaluations should not be interpreted as a resumption of full-scale development or commercial operations.

Under the MOU, AGEDB and the Korean Company contemplate evaluating an integrated package combining locally installed PostgreSQL and Apache AGE relationship-analysis database technology with an AI agent. The MOU also contemplates a separate “Personal AI Operating System” evaluation track, referred to as “AGE Brain,” for potential use in user-controlled computing environments. The proposed applications remain conceptual and subject to further technical and commercial assessment.

The contemplated preliminary work includes architectural design and technical evaluation of approaches to connecting relational data with graph-based relationships and supporting AI-assisted information retrieval and analysis. The parties may consider proof-of-concept testing and pilot activities, but no timeline or commitment to undertake such activities has been established under the MOU.

The MOU has a one-year term. Except for provisions expressly identified as binding, it is non-binding and does not require either party to complete development, launch or commercialize a product, make an investment, commit personnel, pay development fees, or enter into a definitive commercial agreement. Specific project scope, deliverables, schedules, responsibilities, costs and any commercialization terms remain subject to further discussions and, where applicable, separate written agreements. Each party will bear its own evaluation costs unless otherwise agreed in writing.

The Company’s evaluation remains preliminary. No product launch, commercial revenue or definitive commercialization arrangement has been agreed, and there can be no assurance that the parties will proceed with development, that the proposed platform will be completed or commercialized, or that the Company will obtain the resources required to advance the opportunity.

AGEDB may also explore potential collaborations with AI development companies in Korea and other markets, subject to available resources and further assessment.

Acquisition follows a successful partnership between the two companies and advances Bose’s evolution into a multi-brand products and technology company

FRAMINGHAM, Mass. and PARK CITY, Utah, Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Bose Corporation, a global leader in audio innovation and research, announced today it has acquired Skullcandy, a lifestyle audio brand known for its bold products that bring together sound, style and performance. Bose and Skullcandy have each spent decades finding new ways to bring people closer to the music they love. Together, they’ll combine Bose’s audio expertise, technology and global reach with Skullcandy’s design, understanding of its consumers and authentic community connections to create new products and experiences and accelerate growth.

The acquisition follows a multi-year partnership that has already brought Sound by Bose technology to Skullcandy earbuds and headphones. The companies have seen firsthand how their strengths can come together to create products consumers love while staying true to what makes Skullcandy special, providing a foundation to accelerate further collaboration and innovation.

With a strong position at the intersection of audio, lifestyle and culture, Skullcandy will remain a separate brand within Bose’s Premium Consumer Audio business. Skullcandy’s deep roots in boardsports, including longstanding relationships with passionate supporters of the culture and its athletes, and authentic connections across music, gaming, fitness and other communities present new ways for Bose to meaningfully connect with consumers where it has less presence today.

“For more than 60 years, Bose has been committed to delivering incredible audio experiences however and wherever people choose to listen. As we work to reach even more people, we’re expanding how we do that, not only through Bose products, but through technology partnerships and a growing portfolio of brands,” said Lila Snyder, Chief Executive Officer of Bose Corporation. “As a privately held company, we have the freedom to make bold, long-term investments in opportunities we believe in, and Skullcandy is a great example of that. They have an established, thriving brand, and together we see tremendous opportunity to create new products and experiences and reach more consumers around the world.”

“We believe this is a win for Skullcandy and our fans,” said Brian Garofalow, Chief Executive Officer of Skullcandy. “Skullcandy was born on a chairlift in Park City, Utah, over 20 years ago, and we’ve always believed great music should be part of the experiences people love. Joining Bose gives us the opportunity to make those experiences even better by bringing more of their audio expertise and technology to our products, and it opens up even more ways to take Skullcandy further.”

Bose plans to invest in Skullcandy’s continued growth, providing greater access to technology, resources, global distribution and commercial relationships while giving the brand the freedom to continue evolving in ways that are authentic to its identity and consumers. Skullcandy will continue to be based in Park City, Utah.

Bose acquired Skullcandy from a fund managed by Mill Road Capital Management LLC, a Connecticut-based private investment firm. Jones Day acted as Bose’s legal counsel. Additional information, including financial and other terms of the transaction, will remain confidential.

About Bose Corporation
Bose Corporation is a global leader in audio innovation, driven by a singular belief: sound has the power to transform the way people connect with the world.
