Visionstate's WANDA Deployed to School Division: Demonstrates Versatility of Facility Management App

EDMONTON, Alberta - December 1, 2022 - Visionstate Corp. (TSXV: VIS) ("Visionstate" or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce the first deployment of its WANDA™ mobile app to a school division in Canada and has added yet another municipality to its growing list of customers.

The deployment of WANDA™ to a school division in Alberta marks the first installation of the technology in this sector, which continues to look for new technologies to track cleaning protocols as COVID and new flu viruses continue to persist.

The school division deployed Visionstate’s technology using the WANDA™ mobile app in combination with QR codes to monitor cleaning in bathrooms, hallways, libraries, classrooms, and offices. A front entrance and front office QR code are also being used for both custodial staff to log cleaning and maintenance activities and provide visitors with an opportunity to flag potential issues.

“We are very excited about on-boarding our first school division,” said Visionstate IoT Inc.’s (“IoT”) President Shannon Moore. “With the continued threat posed by virus outbreaks and COVID-19, school divisions can use WANDA™ to ensure that cleaning protocols are being met, which is the first line of defence against the spread of disease.”

IoT also deployed to an Alberta municipality which is focusing on the cleaning of its large aquatic centre. The WANDA™ app is being used to monitor change rooms, office areas and community rooms. In addition, WANDA™ is tracking deck maintenance as well as supply room and first aid inventory.

“We have several firsts in terms of WANDA™’s application to pool maintenance and supply tracking in this environment,” Moore explained. “For example, deck maintenance is a critical part of the infrastructure and requires daily maintenance. A QR code is being used specifically for that purpose. Polishing high touch points, scrubbing pool scum, maintaining water test stations, and cleaning and repairing skimmer baskets are all new applications for WANDA™.”

The municipality is also tracking supplies using the WANDA™ app, from delivery to the supply room; to the first aid storage room; to the first aid cart which is on the pool deck. Each has a “check stop” monitored by a QR code so there is a backup to ensure first aid supplies are always available.

“The versatility of WANDA™ in the facility management environment continues to be demonstrated,’ explained Moore. “In an era where disease outbreak is cause for concern, as well as ensuring efficiency in the delivery of services, WANDA™ stands out as the best solution for facility managers.”

Visionstate’s WANDA™ is marketed globally and generates revenue through a software-as-a-service model. Each new client builds recurring revenues where the margin is approximately 90%.

EDMONTON, Alberta - November 15, 2022 - Visionstate Corp. (TSXV: VIS) ("Visionstate" or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce the appointment of Shannon Moore as President of the Company’s operating division, Visionstate IoT Inc., effective immediately. Ms. Moore is a current employee of Visionstate and has served as Director of Sales and Marketing for the past 12 months.

Ms. Moore has a long history in sales, marketing, and operations, having most recently served as CEO of an Edmonton-based home services company before joining the Visionstate team in 2021. Ms. Moore also has extensive experience in sales, which she acquired while employed in the media industry during much of her early career.

As demand for Visionstate’s WANDA™ product continues to increase, the Company is putting in place key personnel to execute its growth plan. Since the initial outbreak of COVID-19, the facility management sector has undergone a transformation away from paper-based processes and toward digitalization, particularly analytics.

Visionstate IoT Inc. is uniquely positioned to capitalize on the opportunity through its proprietary WANDA™ technology, which tracks cleaning protocols and maintenance activities in large facilities, including hospitals, airports, shopping centres, Class A office towers, and municipalities, to name a few.

The Company has witnessed unprecedented growth in the WANDA™ mobile app and accompanying QR codes, which enables facilities to track cleaning and maintenance in specific areas, including exteriors, and most recently high-value assets such as wheelchairs and gurneys. Patrons can scan the same code and provide feedback on the condition of an area or facility providing facility managers with even more in-depth analytics on public sentiment.

“Shannon is a huge asset to our team,” explained Visionstate Corp. CEO John Putters. “She has the experience and skill set to execute on our growth plans and is taking the WANDA™ product to the next level.”

During the past 12-months Ms. Moore has been learning about Visionstate’s technology and understanding the market opportunity for WANDA™. She is also active in her community and has an executive position in a prominent service-oriented organization.

Visionstate's WANDA™ Expands to Equipment Tracking, Sales Queue Grows to More Than 100 Companies

EDMONTON, Alberta - October 31, 2022 - Visionstate Corp. (TSXV: VIS) ("Visionstate" or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce significant growth in the deployment and interest in the Company’s WANDA™ technology, an IoT (Internet of Things) application designed to track cleaning and maintenance protocols in public facilities.

In the previous quarter, the Company installed its technology in several new locations, including shopping malls, Class “A” office buildings, casinos, and municipalities. The demand for WANDA™ is steadily increasing as facility management moves toward digitalization to capture key analytics on its operations.

“Ever since the COVID lockdowns ended we have seen a dramatic rise in interest for the WANDA™ platform,” explained Shannon Moore, Director of Sales and Marketing for Visionstate IoT Inc. “Building operators are turning to technology to track cleaning and maintenance activities to increase operational efficiencies and to provide a safer environment for the public.”

“Currently we are dealing with a list of more than 100 companies that are interested in implementing our WANDA™ platform,” she explained. “This includes everything from large retailers to municipalities.”

Part of the increase in demand is due to the expansion of WANDA™ ’s capabilities. Originally, WANDA™ was designed to track cleaning and maintenance in restrooms.  Using QR codes and its mobile app, WANDA™ is now able to track assets and inventory in addition to cleaning and maintenance protocols.

Visionstate recently implemented WANDA™ at a major Canadian-based hospital to track high-value assets such as wheelchairs and gurneys. Not only can WANDA™ track asset usage, but also the history of the cleaning and maintenance schedules, all at a fingertip.

“WandaMOBILE makes it easy to track high-value assets and inventory,” Moore explained. “The additional benefit is that building managers also have access to the cleaning history, which is particularly important in the hospital environment.”

WANDA™ is based on a subscription model, or software as a service, making it easy and affordable to implement. Visionstate charges customers an activation fee based on the number of users. As the size of the customer grows, the number of activations grows with it.

“Executing on our current customer list represents the potential for several million in residual, booked revenue,” said Moore. “Our goal is to acquire new customers quickly to build our residual income base.”

Visionstate Portfolio Company Exceed Solar Launches Strategy to Address Food Security

EDMONTON, Alberta, September 21, 2022 - Visionstate Corp. (TSXV: VIS) ("Visionstate" or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce its portfolio company, Exceed Solar Inc., has launched an innovative strategy to address mounting concerns over food security in municipalities across Canada.

Exceed Solar Inc. (“Exceed Solar” or “Exceed”), which builds high-tech greenhouses, is creating a community-based food network within the City of Edmonton to help build “growing capacity” in order to address rising food costs and supply shortages. The first greenhouse and community garden were developed in partnership with Freedom Cannabis Inc. (“Freedom”), an Alberta-based company that is also committed to positive social impact.

The initiative involves Exceed Solar supplying its 240-square-foot high-tech greenhouses to businesses and community leagues, in conjunction with a community garden, through sponsorships and donations. The harvest from the gardens is donated to community food banks to help ease the burden of food shortages and rising costs.

“We have found that the buy-in from businesses and community leagues in Edmonton has been exceptional,” explained Elliott Putters, CEO of Exceed Solar. “We all recognize the challenges in front of us when it comes to accessing affordable food and assisting the less fortunate in our society.”

The community garden and greenhouse were installed at Freedom Cannabis Inc. in the summer of 2022, with staff and management playing an active role in maintaining the gardens. The company grew an assortment of vegetables, including celery, tomatoes, Swiss chard, carrots, and spinach, that will be harvested this fall and donated to the campus food bank at the University of Alberta.

“Not only is Freedom living up to its core values in growing great people, but there is a deep sense of satisfaction within our company, knowing that we have helped people that may be less fortunate,” explained Johnfrank Potestio, CEO of Freedom Cannabis Inc.

Exceed’s Sol Greenhouses are a necessary ingredient in fighting the effects of climate change and the associated food shortages. The greenhouses feature a solar-powered heat-pump system that not only extends the growing season, but more recently has been important in cooling the greenhouses during the long stretches of unseasonably hot weather. The main structures of the greenhouses are built with recycled plastic bottles supplied by Ecoplast Solutions, an Alberta-based company.

Exceed Solar has two more community leagues in the queue for the food network which will be launched in the coming months.

“A community-based initiative not only builds capacity in those communities,” Putters explained, “but also becomes a central focus, bringing residents even closer to their communities.”

Exceed Solar would like to thank its sponsors for this important initiative, including AltaPro Electric Inc, Visionstate Inc., and Freedom Cannabis Inc.

Visionstate Corp. portfolio company Freedom Cannabis completes acquisition

EDMONTON, Alberta, September 19, 2022 - Visionstate Corp. (TSXV: VIS) ("Visionstate" or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce that portfolio company Freedom Cannabis Inc., a Canadian producer of premier cannabis products, has signed a definitive agreement to acquire the assets of Calgary-based Boaz Pharmaceuticals Inc. (boazpharm.com).

The acquisition of Boaz is expected to double the revenue for Freedom Cannabis as it expands its growing footprint. Visionstate is an early investor in Freedom Cannabis and owns approximately 3.2 million shares.

With 126,000 square feet of cultivation and manufacturing space, the Boaz assets are expected to double the production capacity of Freedom’s existing facility and provide entrance into cannabis 2.0 products. The Boaz assets consist primarily of 44 specially repurposed shipping containers equipped with new technologies to produce superior quality crops and higher yields. The containers provide opportunities for scalability and ease of installation and allow for expansion of new cannabis strains. Each container is expected to hold approximately 850 cannabis plants and yield approximately 40,000 grams.

Key Transaction Highlights:

  • Expands production capacity: The containers are expected to double the production capacity of the existing facility.

  • Lower production costs: The containers are outfitted with innovative technology which will increase yields and lower operating costs to contribute to cost efficiencies.

  • Enhances branded product: Boaz has a series of cannabis 2.0 products which will be integrated and expanded upon to provide diversification in Freedom’s product offering to retail consumers. In addition, Boaz has an extensive catalog of cannabis strains with the ability to supply those strains to customers.

  • Shareholder value: The transaction will deliver additional EBITDA to shareholders through synergies and other strategic initiatives.

  • Equity Investment: The principal shareholders of Boaz have committed to investing $1.8 million into Freedom Cannabis providing the Company additional working capital and demonstrating Boaz’s commitment to Freedom Cannabis.

“This is an exciting step toward our vision of expanding the scale of our quality cannabis products, while contributing to overall shareholder value,” explained Johnfrank Potestio, CEO of Freedom Cannabis. “Boaz has a demonstrated history of producing quality craft cannabis and will integrate seamlessly with our own products.”

The acquisition will provide Freedom Cannabis with additional packaging equipment for the Company’s fast-growing services division, additional growing capacity to meet the rising demand for retail products across Canada and secure a foothold into the cannabis 2.0 market.

Additionally, Freedom will acquire all inventory for Boaz and product SKUs currently offered throughout Canada, including in provinces currently not served by Freedom Cannabis, particularly in the Maritimes where Boaz has a strong market presence.

Freedom Cannabis will also be acquiring important intellectual property assets, including IP associated with Boaz’s extracts division and K-Cup product which is a unique cannabis-infused coffee drink.

“This acquisition demonstrates our commitment to revenue growth and increasing shareholder value,” explained Potestio. “Freedom Cannabis is quickly becoming one of the most well recognized and respected brands in the cannabis sector, and the acquisition of Boaz is another step in that direction.”

Visionstate’s WANDA™ Launched in Europe, Opening New Markets for IoT Technology

IoT Cleaning Application Now Part of Picardy Wallonia Hospital’s Ultra-Efficient Digital Architecture

EDMONTON, Alberta, July 27, 2022 - Visionstate Corp. (TSXV: VIS) ("Visionstate" or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce that with its long-term partner Bunzl Canada Inc. (“Bunzl”) it has deployed its proprietary WANDA™ IoT technology in the European market at an innovative hospital in Belgium. The launch of the Company’s mobile app represents the first installation in Europe and expands Visionstate’s reach beyond the installations already at 26 hospitals in North America.

The Picardy Wallonia hospital (CHwapi) is an ambitious, innovative hospital project designed to meet current and future health challenges. Its singular mission is to serve its community by promoting “well-being and being well” in a human-focused environment. That environment is comprised of clean, bright, and green spaces connected by an ultra-efficient digital architecture that includes a range of "intelligent" solutions such as digitized appointment making and signage, geolocation of equipment in real-time (RTLS), home automation and telemedicine, a new self-serve maternity support app and more.

“The WandaNEXT IoT cleaning management platform is a natural addition to our state-of-the-art facility,” said Rudy Varenne, Managing Director at Crèche Les CHwa’ptis (ACBL). “The CHwapi environment has been designed to provide a best-in-class experience for both patients and healthcare providers. This platform supports our ability to do that with better visibility and continuous improvements in quality and efficiency.”

WandaNEXT enables healthcare, education, assisted living and commercial facilities to track and verify cleaning activities, validate quality through regularly scheduled audits, and alert cleaning teams to service requirements (such as discharge cleaning routines). It also facilitates schedule optimization, activity management, consumption tracking, end-user feedback and administrative reporting.

Hugues Robert, Managing Director of Global Net Belgium, a Bunzl cleaning and hygiene company, comments, “We are convinced that through the use of WandaNEXT, the Belgian short- and long-stay healthcare market will be able to accelerate the digitization of its cleaning and facility management process in the broadest sense while simplifying the documentation and audit process. We are all very excited to participate in this project within CHwapi and are already very pleased to see the number of expressions of interest from other players in the healthcare market.”

The pilot implementation at CHwapi began earlier this month and will be evaluated over a six-month period. Cleaning teams use cleaning trolleys equipped with tablets that enable them to refer to specific cleaning protocols required for each room type. Dynamic task assignments are delivered in real-time so that cleaning team members are aware of immediate service needs as well as scheduled daily, weekly, and monthly tasks. Audit features are used to monitor quality and identify training and support requirements.

“Now more than ever, facilities in critical environments such as healthcare, education, long-term care, and assisted living must verify and validate that cleaning and disinfecting is being done correctly and at the right intervals,” said Margo Hunnisett, Vice President, Marketing and Communications at Bunzl Canada, where the WandaNEXT product was developed by Visionstate IoT.

Visionstate continues to work in partnership with Bunzl to develop new system features and functionality. The partners are currently completing a pilot project that includes surface diagnostics using ATP testing technology.

WandaNEXT has a growing installation base that includes healthcare, education, retail, commercial office, conference, airport and distribution facilities across Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Europe.

In the past couple of months, Visionstate has demonstrated major growth in sales and deployments of its WANDA™ cleaning-tracking technology.

Some of the highlights from the corporate milestones include:

  • Successful Trial at the Metro Toronto Convention Center

    • Along with a successful showcasing of WANDA™ at the ISSA Canada Show, Visionstate is pleased to announce that it has also completed a successful trial in the washrooms at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, which has now captured the attention of other facilities.

    • Following Visionstate’s campaign with the City of Edmonton to manage cleaning activities and maintenance of the city’s 400 bus shelters, QR codes are now being planned to be installed in the City of St. Albert, representing another exciting new vertical for the Company.

  • Expansion at Blackstone

    • Visionstate’s long-term customer Blackstone is expanding their WANDA™ locations by more than 300% with approximately 100 WANDA™ tablets, giving further validation for Visionstate’s position within the market.

  • Partnership with Grey Nuns Community Hospital

    • Visionstate has established a long-running partnership with the Grey Nuns Community Hospital (GNCH), a part of Covenant Health that has 18 sites located in 12 communities across Alberta. The Company has developed an asset management system that GNCH is using to monitor its equipment. This new development opens many new opportunities in all sectors.

  • Activation at the University of Saskatchewan

    • Activations of the Company’s unique Internet of Things (IoT) have been estimated to include 1,800 deployments within the University of Saskatchewan. For each activation of the mobile application, Visionstate measures its success based on the rate of customer acquisition.

The hotel has been providing hospitality to its guests for more than 130 years with its 745 guest rooms and suites. This relationship represents the first hotel for Visionstate and another exciting milestone for the Company.

John Putters, CEO of Visionstate, commented, “As we continue to build our position within the market, and scale WANDA™, we feel confident that we will be able to replicate our efforts into other large facilities.” Putters added, “We strive to find like-minded partnerships for successful business development. What we learn from every partnership is that no two businesses function the same and we will continue to find ways to make WANDA™ work for them. Sometimes it pushes us creatively, but out-of-the-box thinking keeps every day interesting and innovative.”

Visionstate is now prioritizing on finalizing details for many more installations, including malls, healthcare facilities, resorts, school divisions, commercial facilities, casinos, universities, and coast-to-coast cleaning companies in the United States. Outside of Visionstate’s partnership with Bunzl Canada, the Company is also forging ahead with internal sales.

Visionstate's IOT Software Solution for Facilities Goes Global; Adoption Accelerating due to COVID-19 Sixth Wave

EDMONTON, Alberta, April 14, 2022 - Visionstate Corp. (TSX VENTURE: VIS) (“Visionstate” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide the following update on the growth of its Internet of Things (IoT) application which is quickly gaining traction in the facility management sector under the branded name, WANDA™.

WANDA™ has quickly become an important tool in the fight against COVID-19 and other diseases as the sixth wave of the virus continues to create health concerns across Canada and beyond. WANDA™ is a mobile application, incorporating QR code functionality, that tracks cleaning and maintenance activities and measures those activities against new and more stringent protocols.

“We are very pleased with the growth of Visionstate IoT Inc.,” said Company CEO John Putters. “WANDA™ is quickly becoming the primary tool for businesses, municipalities, and governments to ensure cleaning protocols are met in order to reduce the impact of COVID-19.”

The Company provides the following updates on the global rollout of WANDA™:

  • The Company has entered into two significant pilot projects with Business Services Contractors (BSC) to test the performance of the WANDA™ mobile app. The successful conclusion of the pilot projects will result in further deployments throughout the portfolios of the BSCs and represents new selling partners.

  • The Company has deployed additional WANDA™ tablets to Class A office towers in Florida to an existing customer. The continued expansion of WANDA™ through the customer’s real estate portfolio demonstrates the value of the technology as it continues to become an integral part of the cleaning protocols.

  • The sales pipeline for WANDA™ continues to grow and includes seniors’ facilities, municipalities, school divisions, universities, and office towers, to name a few. The opportunities continue to be driven by Visionstate’s global partner which is a leader in the cleaning and hygiene business.

  • The Company has partnered with a managed phone solution provider to supply rugged phones to customers who do not currently provide employees with handsets. The managed solution provides the ability to control the use of the phones so that they are used for the purposes of WANDA™ only.

  • Visionstate is commencing the development of RFID technology to track the location of high-value assets in hospitals and to track the cleaning of these assets after each use. Tracking assets and the cleaning protocols that accompany these assets continue to be a challenge for hospitals in particular. The RFID application will also be sold on a software as a service model.

  • Visionstate launched a new website to better reflect the new functionality, features, and benefits of the WANDA™ product. The website can be viewed at www.visionstate.com.

About WANDA™

Designed to track cleaning and maintenance activities, the mobile version of WANDA™ has unlimited scalability and is applicable to diverse industry sectors, including hospitals, airports, shopping centres, community recreational facilities, schools and universities, senior’s care facilities and even large municipalities. The mobile app is also quick to deploy and is based on a subscription model to eliminate upfront costs.

Visionstate charges a monthly or annual subscription fee for each activation of the mobile application and measures success based on the rate of customer acquisition, which is a standard measure of performance for technology companies that are based on the Software as a Service (SaaS) model. Customer acquisition increases residual income over the 36-month term of each contract and carries a high margin on sales.

Visionstate's WANDA™️ Bolsters Rapid Expansion of Software Activations Across Several New Sectors

Edmonton, Alberta, March 16, 2022 - Visionstate Corp. (TSXV: VIS) (“Visionstate” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce incredulous growth in sales and deployments results for its proprietary WANDA™ cleaning tracking technology in increasingly diverse locations.

Following strong penetration within the healthcare and academic community, the first quarter of 2023 included the addition of two senior’s care facilities, four shopping centres, and a substantial university campus in Canada. Visionstate’s WANDA™ footprint has also been integrated within a colossal US customer that is one of the largest private real estate equity firms globally.

Activations of our unique Internet of Things (IoT) have been estimated to include 130 deployments within a large Canadian university and an additional 100 within senior care facilities. Furthermore, expected expansion within a sizeable Canadian city could lead to a potential addition of 200 further activations for this cleaning, maintenance and inventory tracking technology. An expected charge range could include $15.95 to $24.95 per month of revenue over a 36-month term.

The most significant growth relates to the company’s mobile app that was introduced to the market in 2021 and is an evolution of the restroom-centric touch screen tablets that formed the original WANDA™ IoT application. The mobile app has significantly reduced the upfront costs of implementing the solution, decreased installation related requirements, and greatly expanded the functionality of the WANDA™ technology.

“In early 2021 the Company was restroom-centric and tablet dependant,” Putters explained. “Since COVID-related restrictions were lifted, we are seeing a significant spike in both the deployments of our technology, and the interest level in adopting WANDA™ into standard cleaning protocols. Today WANDA™ can track anything both within and outside of facilities with virtually no upfront costs. We have municipalities, for example, using WANDA™ mobile with QR codes to track cleaning activities while collecting valuable information from the general public on the state of cleanliness. This includes anything from publicly accessible ashtrays to garbage receptacles. It also demonstrates that if municipalities are concerned about cleanliness and public perception, WANDA™ is the ideal solution to meet those objectives.”

The surge in WANDA™ sales is also attributed to the adoption of the mobile app into cleaning programs, including those offered by Visionstate’s partner, which is at the forefront of cleaning and hygiene programs across the globe.

About WANDA™

Designed to track cleaning and maintenance activities, the mobile version of WANDA™ has unlimited scalability and is applicable to diverse industry sectors, including hospitals, airports, shopping centres, community recreational facilities, schools and universities, senior’s care facilities and even large municipalities. The mobile app is also quick to deploy and is based on a subscription model to eliminate upfront costs.

Visionstate Portfolio Company Exceed Solar Bundles IoT Tech with Latest Greenhouse Sale

Exceed Solar is addressing the growing threat to food security

Edmonton, Alberta, November 30, 2021 - Visionstate Corp. (TSX-V: VIS) (“Visionstate” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that Exceed Solar, a portfolio company of Visionstate Corp., is further enhancing its high-tech solar greenhouse with its recent deployment of a residential off-grid greenhouse.

Exceed Solar, which recently deployed a 240 square foot, solar-powered greenhouse at the University of Alberta, is now bundling Internet of Things (IoT) technology into its structures to measure environmental conditions that will enhance growing capabilities while efficiently using renewable energy.

Interesting facts about the Exceed Solar greenhouse:

  • Two 315-watt photovoltaic solar panels power the off-grid greenhouse, producing 630W/h in green energy

  • The solar energy produces enough power to operate fans, lights, and a small IoT computer

  • A unique 40 square foot vestibule or potting shed is attached to the greenhouse and houses the solar components

  • Solar energy is stored in two batteries that can provide up to 2.9kW of storage

  • The building envelope is constructed using recycled SIP or structural insulated panels supplied by Ecoplast Solutions, a Canadian company based in Lloydminster, Alberta

  • The SIP panels are rated R30 and are made from 100% recycled plastic bottles

  • The greenhouse features an insulated north wall to regulate temperatures inside the greenhouse

The residential greenhouse is powered by two 315-watt solar panels and is built with energy efficiency in mind by using recycled, structural insulated panels (SIPs) for the building envelope and a double layer of polycarbonate panels for the growing area. The greenhouse has a total footprint of 160 square feet with 120 square feet of greenhouse space and a fully-insulated 40 square foot attached vestibule that can be used for indoor growing.

Exceed’s most recent sale of the greenhouse marks the first deployment in a residential setting. The Company’s objective is to disrupt traditional construction by incorporating new building materials and technology to ensure energy efficiency and meet demand for the transition to a renewable energy economy.

In addition to incorporating technology and renewable energy into its greenhouse, Exceed Solar is meeting the increased demand for backyard growing as climate change and COVID-19 continue to put pressure on food costs.

“The Exceed Solar greenhouse is the most advanced of its kind currently on the market,” explained Kim Muir, director of Marketing and Sales. “It is designed for northern cold-climate conditions and provides the ability to offset food costs by growing produce in your own backyard and for a longer growing season too.”

The IoT technology being incorporated in the greenhouse includes sensors for measuring temperature, humidity, and light levels in the greenhouse, which is accessible remotely through an app. The data collected within the greenhouse will allow the customer to better understand and tailor the growing conditions in the greenhouse and allow Exceed Solar to collect valuable data on the performance of its products.

Along with providing high-tech solar-powered greenhouses, Exceed Solar is setting its sights on addressing affordable housing by leveraging sustainable, modularized building materials and renewable energy. The Company is focussed on advancing its brand of social enterprise by addressing basic needs in our communities such as affordable and accessible housing.

Visionstate Provides Business Update

Edmonton, Alberta, November 4, 2021 - Visionstate Corp. (TSX-V: VIS) (“Visionstate” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on its business activities, sales, and new technology development. The Company continues to grow with its IoT WANDA™ product as a result of new cleaning protocols required to address the spread of COVID-19.

The interest in WANDA™ has grown substantially in the last three months, with a sales pipeline larger than ever in the history of the company. The rise in interest coincides with facilities opening to the public with Visionstate customers being diligent in their cleaning practices to ensure a safe environment. WANDA™, which tracks cleaning activities and provides detailed analytics on key performance indicators, is an essential part of the fight to control COVID-19 and other diseases, by ensuring new protocols are being met.

Visionstate is set to roll out WANDA™ tablets, IoT buttons and its WandaMOBILE product to diverse locations, including hospitals located in Europe, a large Canadian zoo, a Canadian provincial museum, four new shopping-centre locations and expansion of an existing installation with one of the largest private-equity companies in the world. The expansion includes a Class A office tower in Miami, Florida.

Existing clients are also adopting WandaMOBILE coupled with QR codes. The use of QR codes provides the opportunity to track any area or zone within a facility. The codes can be used by cleaning staff to log their presence at a location and use the app to record cleaning activities, supplies and address any existing alerts from customers. These customers can scan the QR code to provide feedback or alerts for areas that require immediate attention.

WandaMOBILE is particularly popular because of the quick deployment time and the QR code feature. Visionstate has an upcoming pilot project with a large Canadian municipality to use WandaMOBILE to track cleaning and alerts in diverse locations, including garbage receptacles on public property. Current customers of WandaMOBILE are also implementing QR codes, including a Canadian international airport, since the use of touchscreens in public settings are decreasing because of COVID-19 and the potential to spread disease.

Visionstate’s business model is based on software as a service (SaaS), with contracts typically on a three-year term. Since the Company only reports quarterly results, success of SaaS models is measured by the rate of customer acquisition. To further increase the rate of customer acquisition, Visionstate is also investing in added sales staff to augment the sales and marketing efforts through its existing global partner. These resources will be in place in the month of November 2021. Visionstate recently added a business strategist to its team, and the results of the on-going analysis of the Company’s performance will provide guidance on the sales strategy.

Visionstate also continues to invest in new features for its WANDA™ product, particularly the mobile app. New auditing features, automatic supply replenishment, and key analytical insights are currently being developed and will be deployed by the end of the calendar year.

The Company is also ramping up its development of artificial intelligence (AI) applications for retail and public locations. Visionstate, which disrupted the static directory market in 2005 with its interactive ViCCi (“Vicky”) product, is re-purposing its core technology, which includes interactive wayfinding, and integrating it with state-of-the-art AI technology.

Visionstate Works with Artificial Intelligence Company to Deploy Retail Customer Service Solution

Edmonton, Alberta, October 21, 2021 - Visionstate Corp. (TSX-V: VIS) (“Visionstate” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has entered into an agreement with Artificial Intelligence company Fluido.ai to deploy AI enabled customer service applications for the retail sector. The first deployment of the new technology will be in a large Canadian-based shopping centre.

With the retail sector struggling as it recovers from COVID-19 related business interruptions, supply chain challenges, health and safety concerns, and labour shortages – Visionstate’s VICCI (virtual, interactive, customer care, interface) kiosks with Fluido.ai chatbot give operators in-store support to help guide the customer journey.

The touch-free kiosk works without the need for human labour. The chatbot is voice activated and uses machine learning, so the technology improves as more customers interact with it. The retail operator can have a 360-degree view of how customers navigate the mall space, what the most common customer questions are, and what are the unmet customer needs, thus providing opportunities for new services and retail tenants. A large Canadian shopping centre will be launching the Visionstate VICCI kiosk with Tensorgraph’s Fluido.ai chatbot in the first calendar quarter of 2022.

"Visionstate is focused on helping businesses harness the power of technology to help both the business and the collective thrive in a sustainable way,” explained Visionstate CEO, John Putters. “We are thrilled to be able to incorporate Tensorgraph’s Fluido.ai chatbot into our VICCI smart kiosk platform so that customers can interact with the technology in the most natural way. Our voices are the first thing we use when we’re born and interacting with the kiosk verbally results in a faster, more accessible, easier, and safer experience as the customer does not need to touch a screen to connect. The launch of the VICCI kiosk with Fluido.ai chatbot in early 2022 will support customers and the mall leadership with better, safer experiences and real-time analytics that will help accelerate the retail recovery."

“We started Tensorgraph to offer businesses a way to embrace the ‘future of work’ where humans and bots work together,” added Wessam Gad El-Rab, Co-Founder of Tesorgraph.io., “Fluido is Spanish for ‘fluid or seamless’ and the Fluido.ai chatbot lets businesses benefit from technology without losing the human touch. I’m thrilled that Visionstate is launching a VICCI kiosk at a large Canadian shopping centre in 2022 where the mall leadership will now have full visibility into the customer journey to help inform business strategy, bridge the gaps created by the labour shortage, and create a better experience."

Statistical Trends in Retail and Technology:

  • 64% of entrepreneurs report that labour shortage limits their growth

  • 55% of small and medium-sized businesses find it difficult to hire

  • 61% of entrepreneurs must increase their hours and/or their employees’ hours due to the labour scarcity

  • 49% must increase wages and benefits

  • 44% have delayed or are unable to deliver orders to clients (source: BDC) https://www.bdc.ca/en/about/mediaroom/news-releases/labour-shortage-study

About Fluido.ai chatbot

Fluido.ai is a code-free conversational AI (Artificial Intelligence) platform powered by an advanced machine-learning and NLP (Natural Language Processing) model which allows businesses to benefit from technology that’s been built and “trained” to the unique operational and brand nuances of the business. The chatbot guides the customer journey in a safe and engaging way while the AI technology continuously improves the chatbot response as more customers interact with it. The ability of the Fluido.ai chatbot to seamlessly handoff and support the human-to-human interactions is its point of difference.
