("4GLOBAL" or the "Group")
Launch of Insight.OS
4GLOBAL (AIM: 4GBL), a provider of data and technology for sports, fitness and
wellness organisations to optimise operational and investment decisions, is
pleased to announce the launch of Insight.OS 1.0, its new AI-powered core data
intelligence platform designed to make it easier for organisations to access
and integrate its market-leading dataset. Removing the need for customers to
adopt 4GLOBAL's proprietary software, it is expected to create new revenue
opportunities and drive faster adoption.
Overview of Insight.OS
Insight.OS is the result of 4GLOBAL's continued evolution into a more
sophisticated and streamlined business, making its data accessible to
organisations who prefer to integrate insights within their existing
infrastructures - a growing trend - while also preparing for a future where
automated AI agents and systems play a prominent role in the use of its data.
The cloud-based data processing and analytics platform that now sits at the
heart of 4GLOBAL's data ecosystem, Insight.OS acts as an intelligent engine
that collects, processes, and transforms raw data into valuable insights,
which customers can now access in multiple ways:
· Vía 4GLOBAL's visualisation tools - through an upgraded 4GLOBAL
web-based portal offering dashboards, reports, and analytics.
· Via direct API integration, a way for different software systems to
communicate with each other - enabling organisations to integrate 4GLOBAL's
insights into their own business intelligence tools, such as Power BI and
Tableau.
This enhanced flexibility marks a significant shift from 4GLOBAL's previous
model, where customers primarily accessed insights through its proprietary
software tools.
Strategic Rationale and Commercial Benefits
The launch supports 4GLOBAL's strategic goals of accelerating growth,
diversifying revenue, and future-proofing its offering.
By adopting a platform-agnostic approach, 4GLOBAL is positioning itself for:
· Wider market reach: Organisations no longer need to adopt 4GLOBAL's
proprietary software to benefit from its insights, opening up new verticals
and customers, including larger and more data-mature organisations with
existing infrastructures.
· Shorter sales cycles and onboarding times: The reduced need for
complex software integrations removes barriers to adoption and enables
organisations to quickly and efficiently leverage 4GLOBAL's dataset, reducing
sales friction and improving conversion rates.
· Increased recurring revenues: API-driven licencing and integration
reduce software development dependencies, enhancing margins and scalability.
· Enhanced AI readiness: Insight.OS will ensure 4GLOBAL's data remains
compatible with and accessible by AI agents and systems as automation becomes
more widespread.
Next Steps and the Future of Insight.OS
Following a successful pilot with select customers, Insight.OS 1.0 is now
being deployed, with the migration of existing customers to the new platform
already underway.
Future iterations of Insight.OS will incorporate advancements in AI and data
processing, enhancing automation, analytical capabilities, and integration
options. This will further strengthen 4GLOBAL's position as a leader in
AI-powered data insights.
Alongside Insight.OS, 4GLOBAL remains committed to delivering its own software
solutions, ensuring customers continue to have flexibility in how they access
its offering.
Eloy Mazon, CEO of 4GLOBAL, commented:
"The launch of Insight.OS is a transformational step for 4GLOBAL, creating new
revenue opportunities and making our insights more widely accessible. By
removing barriers to adoption, we expect to accelerate customer growth and
expand into new sectors. This evolution strengthens our competitive position
and enhances the long-term value of our business."
