First-of-its-kind, Bi-directional Speech-to-Speech Translation is Now Available</p>
<p>SAN FRANCISCO, May 24, 2022 — <a href="https://www.orionlabs.io/">Orion Labs</a>, Inc., the world&#8217;s first Voice AI Communications<br />
Platform for frontline enterprises, today released its Speech-to-Speech Translation (S2ST),<br />

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We recently unveiled a compelling new concept, Frontline AI, which aims to unleash the potential of the frontline workforce. </span><strong><a href="https://www.orionlabs.io/what-is-frontline-ai/">So, what is Frontline AI?</a></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Frontline AI turns voice into data, powering Voice AI Workflows that unlock operations automation at the edge or point of frontline work. Frontline employees trigger Voice AI Workflows in two ways, a <strong>voice command</strong> that starts a back-end, automated process, or a <strong>voice query</strong> that sends or retrieves information from systems of record back to the frontline user.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Frontline AI turns these actions or inputs into data</strong>, providing enterprises with a mature, digital, and AI-driven system of action that makes it simple to access or update corporate or operational systems of record. Ultimately, Frontline AI empowers task workers with data and information typically available only to knowledge workers — a game-changing step for productivity.</span></p>
<p><strong>Every frontline enterprise can benefit from voice automation delivered at the edge of work.</strong> Yet, we know each operation is unique with unique processes. So read on to learn about how some of our Voice AI Workflows can benefit operations like yours.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.orionlabs.io/what-is-frontline-ai/"><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Check out what Orion Chief Technology Officer Alex McNamara had to say about Orion’s game-changing Frontline AI.</span></i></a></p>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Enhance Productivity and Safety with Orion’s Revolutionary Voice AI Workflows</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">To truly capitalize on Frontline AI at scale, enterprises must be innovative and foster a <strong>culture of curiosity about the seconds and minutes of untapped potential</strong> in frontline work: </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Here are a few questions enterprises should consider when approaching Frontline AI: </span></p>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">What routine, time-consuming tasks and SOPs can be automated? </span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">What’s the next step in digitizing routine manual or paper-based processes? </span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">What processes will improve when seamlessly connected to backend systems? </span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">What information can be introduced to a task worker before it’s manually requested? </span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">What are the processes that, when strung together, will unlock true transformation?</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Let’s take a look at a few simple ways Orion helps frontline enterprises integrate Frontline AI into their operations.</span></p>
<h3><b>Practical Applications: Frontline AI and Voice AI Workflows in Action</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Orion customers span frontline industries like <strong>retail, hospitality, transportation, logistics, security, and more.</strong> </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">We’ve been thrilled to partner with them on their journey as they implement voice automation and unlock the transformative productivity gains from Frontline AI.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Here is a quick peak into 3 of Orion’s transformative Voice AI Workflows and their real-world applications:</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><i>Speech-to-Speech Translation</i></strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">A multilingual frontline workforce poses unique challenges to effective communications. As today’s frontline leaders know, hiring the best available staff often means hiring workers with different native languages or varying levels of English proficiency. Without a solution for workers to communicate in their proficient language, miscommunications negatively affect workforce productivity, safety compliance, and customer service.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong>Orion real-time <a href="https://www.orionlabs.io/transform-frontline-work-with-speech-to-speech-translation/">Speech-to-Speech Translation</a></strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong> is a powerful productivity automation solution that unlocks access to an expanded labor pool, instantly translating languages between team members.</strong> Each worker communicates and receives responses from team members in their preferred language, ensuring clear, safe, and productive work. </span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://info.orionlabs.io/speech-to-speech-translation-solution-brief" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Get the Speech-to-Speech Translation Solution Brief</span></i></a></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><i>Shift Check-in Workflow</i></strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Frontline workers are often required to check in with dispatchers or supervisors at the start of their shift. When groups of workers start their shifts at the same time, </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">bottlenecks and delays occur — especially if managers or dispatchers must manually respond. Frontline operations require a solution that automates routine processes like shift check-ins to unlock cost savings and boost productivity hindered by traditional tools.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Orion’s Shift Check-in Workflow automates manual check-in processes, whether checking in at the start of a shift or checking in before each task</strong>. Users speak a voice command like “Status Check”, and the Orion Voice AI Workflow responds and completes the check-in without any other human intervention. This process eliminates a manual response from managers or dispatchers, gets workers productive sooner, and enables focus on higher-value tasks. This workflow can also be configured to integrate voice-driven check-ins with Time &amp; Attendance systems of record.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Orion customer </span><a href="https://www.orionlabs.io/mbta-case-study/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority (MBTA)</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> uses our Shift Check-in Workflow to eliminate all manual radio checks, saving MBTA up to 10 minutes for each driver at the start of each shift. Over a year, this adds up to nearly 45 hours saved for each weekday driver and 17 hours saved for each weekend driver. <strong>Manual radio checks alone saves MBTA an estimated $700,000 each year.</strong></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://info.orionlabs.io/shift-check-in-workflow-solution-brief" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Get the Shift Check-in Workflow Solution Brief</span></i></a></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><i>Voice Ticketing Workflow</i></strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Digital and mobile ticketing solutions revolutionized field and on-the-go operations by reducing the headaches, limited organizational visibility, and lost productivity inherent in </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">paper-based processes. Still, these digital ticketing solutions require touchscreen data entry into tablets or mobile devices, which hinders heads-up productivity and attentive customer service.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today’s frontline operations need to extend their ticketing system to be a voice system of action by using the power of voice. <strong>Orion&#8217;s Voice Ticketing Workflow extends the power of your frontline ticketing software system of record with voice query, automating data entry and updates with voice.</strong> Frontline teams gain the ability to populate back-end business systems of record with valuable real-time data from the frontline with Orion’s voice-driven system of action. Deskless workers achieve greater efficiencies in their day-to-day work and tasks, provide better customer experiences, and enjoy greater empowerment and job satisfaction.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The tight labor market across frontline industries, like hospitality, retail, logistics, transportation, and more, continues to be a challenge for employers who need to fill open positions. Notably, </span><a href="https://data.census.gov/table?tid=ACSDP5Y2019.DP02" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">1 in 5 people</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> in the U.S. speaks a language other than English with </span><a href="https://data.census.gov/table?tid=ACSDP5Y2019.DP02" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">over 8%</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> of the U.S. population speaking English less than “very well”. So, what does that mean for frontline employers looking to hire new team members in a challenging labor market?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Increasingly, employers recognize that hiring the best available staff means hiring a multilingual workforce with various levels of English proficiency. However, this can have wide-ranging impacts that require strategic planning given language proficiency is key to orientation, training, productivity, and safety. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Solutions that remove language barriers are more important than ever to today’s frontline enterprises. Yet, many of today’s translation solutions like Google Translate offer limited utility with translation outputs designed to be returned on a single device — and not for multi-device, real-time conversations. This isn’t good enough for enterprises that need intelligent solutions to help their growing multilingual staff enhance productivity and deliver exceptional customer service. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Our solution? <a href="https://info.orionlabs.io/speech-to-speech-translation-solution-brief" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Orion Speech-to-Speech Translation</a>. It’s a first-of-its-kind, voice-AI-powered approach that layers bi-directional translation into real-time communications, unlocking new possibilities for the deskless workforce. </span></p>

<h3><b>What is Orion Speech-to-Speech Translation?</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Orion pioneered </span><a href="https://www.orionlabs.io/what-is-frontline-ai/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Frontline AI </span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">to deliver a generational leap in productivity for the frontline workforce. Orion Speech-to-Speech Translation uses our proprietary Frontline AI to deliver a powerful, real-time translation tool directly to deskless workers at their point of work via our </span><a href="https://info.orionlabs.io/push-to-talk-2-0-fact-sheet" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Push-to-Talk 2.0 </span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">Platform. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Orion’s Speech-to-Speech Translation is a revolutionary, voice-driven solution that enables team members to participate in Orion talk groups adding translation into the flow of team communication. Orion groups support unlimited language preferences, utilizing bi-directional translation on voice messages so each team member can speak and hear messages in their primary or most proficient language. Each user communicates 1:1 or in Orion talk groups without needing to access a third-party translation tool or rely on a multilingual management team.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Like all our </span><a href="https://www.orionlabs.io/bots/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Voice AI Workflows</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, Orion Speech-to-Speech Translation improves productivity and safety, by supporting the needs of heads-up, deskless operations. When frontline workers use voice instead of typing on screens to communicate, they stay focused on their primary tasks.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This one workflow helps frontline employers: </span></p>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Unlock an expanded labor pool</span></li>

<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Luxury resorts know they have to create the perfect environment the moment a guest arrives on the property. To construct the perfect guest experience (GX), leading resorts like </span><a href="/the-boca-raton-hospitality/"><span style="font-weight: 200;">The Boca Raton</span></a><span style="font-weight: 200;"> rely on Orion’s Frontline AI Workflows. We’re pleased to recently have added an 80-acre Hawaiian resort to our growing roster of luxury resorts that rely on Orion for enhanced </span><a href="/hospitality/"><span style="font-weight: 200;">Hospitality operations</span></a><span style="font-weight: 200;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">The luxury resort features large event spaces, 150 stand-alone guest bungalows, butler services, a fitness center, multiple pools, a spa, multiple dining options, tennis courts, ocean sports, and a cultural center. The property will use Orion’s award-winning hospitality platform to support customer-facing operations like guest services, facilities management, food and beverage, recreation, and front desk operations, as well as behind-the-scenes services like maintenance, housekeeping, and day-to-day operations management.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-10206" src="https://www.orionlabs.io/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Kona-blog-2.16.2023-300x158.png" alt="Orion Hospitality Workflows" width="500" height="263" srcset="https://www.orionlabs.io/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Kona-blog-2.16.2023-300x158.png 300w, https://www.orionlabs.io/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Kona-blog-2.16.2023-1024x538.png 1024w, https://www.orionlabs.io/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Kona-blog-2.16.2023-768x403.png 768w, https://www.orionlabs.io/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Kona-blog-2.16.2023.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></p>
<h3>Improved Productivity for Hospitality Operations with Orion</h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Several hundred frontline hospitality workers and managers operating dispersed across the vast luxury resort will use the Orion Frontline AI Platform to improve productivity with the following Orion features: </span></p>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 200;" aria-level="1"><strong>Multimodal Communications</strong><span style="font-weight: 200;">: The luxury resort’s employees use Orion to communicate via push-to-talk in ad hoc, 1:1, or group environments that enable managers to connect directly with relevant workers like food and beverage service, housekeeping, security, engineering, spa, grounds, transportation, and front desk teams. These dispersed employees and managers remain connected to their teams anywhere on or off the property over Wi-Fi and LTE. The always-on ability to communicate via voice, text, photos, videos, and files like PDFs supports a user-friendly experience for frontline staff and improves team and cross-team communications.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 200;" aria-level="1"><strong>Location Management &amp; Operational Oversight</strong><span style="font-weight: 200;">: Orion’s Operations Console enables improved productivity and safety by providing the resort’s managers with a single-pane map view of all on-site staff locations. Managers can always connect with staff and gain a complete view of real-time operations, even if they are off-site when a critical situation or emergency arises.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 200;" aria-level="1"><strong>Emergency Alert Workflows</strong><span style="font-weight: 200;">: Orion’s Emergency Alert Workflow enables the resort’s dispersed staff to call for help no matter where they are. When the designated emergency phrase is spoken, the Orion Frontline AI Platform sends an automatic alert with precise x-and-y-axis location information that can pinpoint the emergency to specific rooms and floors of multi-floor hospitality operations. The Orion system is also configured to send an emergency alert email or text message with key location data to managers or even make an automated E911 call.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 200;" aria-level="1"><strong>All Call Workflow</strong><span style="font-weight: 200;">: Orion’s platform further supports emergency situations with the ability to instantly send an All Call message to every employee. Employees and managers respond faster and more accurately to critical situations like dangerous weather, health emergencies, harassment of staff or guests, or hostile intruders. </span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 200;" aria-level="1"><strong>Data &amp; Analytics</strong><span style="font-weight: 200;">: All message and location information sent over the platform is archived for governance, risk, or compliance purposes. Managers can access key data and analyze day-to-day activities or incident responses to make informed decisions on resort productivity and safety.</span></li>
</ul>
<h3>Orion’s Frontline Hospitality Operations Software</h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">In addition to the benefits of improved team communication, Orion improves team productivity through proprietary AI Workflows designed to support a world-class guest experience. Orion’s Frontline AI is a system of action that connects to hospitality operations systems of record like Amadeus Service Optimization (HotSOS), ALICE by Actabl, and Knowcross by UNIFOCUS. Orion also supports seamless collaboration with customer-facing operations and back-office management with integrations to industry-leading software like Microsoft Teams, Google, and Slack.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-weight: 200;">Orion’s AI Workflow Library and hospitality system integrations continue to evolve and expand as more and more hospitality operations realize the transformative productivity benefits of automating processes and delivering AI at the point of frontline work. Additional Orion Frontline AI Hospitality Workflows include Speech-to-Speech Language Translation, Voice-Automated Checklists, Voice-Access to Hospitality Systems, VIP Guest Arrival, and more.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Orion’s </span><a href="/onyx-named-2017-edison-award-winner-voice-hearing-technology/"><span style="font-weight: 200;">award-winning</span></a><span style="font-weight: 200;">, patented </span><a href="https://info.orionlabs.io/orion-onyx-fact-sheet" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 200;">Onyx device</span></a><span style="font-weight: 200;"> helps the frontline workforce take advantage of our proprietary Frontline AI however and wherever they operate — on the go, heads up, or engaged with customers or guests. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">The frontline device acts as a delivery system for operations automation and enables task workers to do knowledge and information work at the frontline. Frontline workers like </span><b>retail associates, hospitality staff, healthcare teams, and high-tech manufacturing workers</b><span style="font-weight: 200;"> use Orion’s patented wearable device to access Orion’s revolutionary </span><a href="/bots/"><span style="font-weight: 200;">Voice AI Workflows</span></a><span style="font-weight: 200;"> and immediately improve productivity. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">The Onyx makes it simple to invoke Orion’s Voice AI Workflows as </span><b>systems of action to update corporate or operational systems of record</b><span style="font-weight: 200;">. Workers also stay connected with teams and deliver push-to-talk voice messages over cellular and wireless networks in real time. </span></p>

<h2><span style="font-weight: 200;">The Best Wearable for Frontline Workers</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Unlike other frontline wearable devices, the </span><b>Onyx is a sleek, durable device</b><span style="font-weight: 200;"> that meets the needs of customer facing retail employees and guest-facing hospitality workers as much as the needs of behind the scenes healthcare staff and manufacturing warehouse or logistics workers. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">The device clips onto a lapel, pocket, belt, or strap. Users can also plug in a headset or earpiece for discreet communication in public environments. As long as workers are within 30 feet of their Bluetooth-enabled iOS or Android device, they can communicate over any WiFi or cellular network.</span></p>

<h2>Three Popular Orion Workflows for Frontline Retail</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Orion workflows offer tangible benefits and ROI by simplifying processes, increasing sell-through, improving productivity, reducing inventory shrinkage, and bolstering safety for staff and customers. Voice automation immediately amplifies the abilities of each worker on the retail floor and multiplies their impact.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Here are three popular Orion Workflows that impact the bottom line and will be available to experience live in the Samsung booth at NRF:  </span></p>

<div class="siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget">
	<p><b>Inventory Query</b> <b>Workflow: </b><span style="font-weight: 200;">Frontline workers connect directly to your inventory management system to quickly answer customer inventory questions. Associates use voice to query the inventory system to access information on item size or color availability, as well as item location, whether the item is in store, in the stock room, available at another store, or available for shipping. </span></p>
<p><b>Price Check Workflow:</b><span style="font-weight: 200;"> Store associates quickly verify prices with a simple speech request. Instantly retrieve queried data from back-end systems with the Orion voice workflow returning an audible speech response. Workers stay engaged with the customer and seamlessly support the customer experience with product recommendations, promotional information, and answers to additional questions.</span></p>
<p><b>Language Translation Workflow:</b><span style="font-weight: 200;"> Retail stores operate with multilingual staff rosters, especially in seasonal periods. Orion’s Speech-to-Speech Language Translation Workflow enables real-time, bidirectional, speech-to-speech language translation in over 60 languages, so workers can communicate and receive information in their native language. </span></p>
</div>

<div class="siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget">
	<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Orion workflows respond to spoken commands or pre-set event triggers to query retail systems, perform tasks, and connect workers to relevant team members. When querying systems, Orion retrieves the requested information and speaks it back to the retail worker’s device or connected earpiece. Information is pulled in real-time from retail management or point of sale systems so workers stay heads up with the customer or engaged on their task at hand. Additional Orion workflows update backend systems in real time, connect workers to SMEs, or support omnichannel operations.</span></p>
<h2>The Orion Workflow Library: Built for the Frontline Retail Workforce</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Orion offers voice workflows in three flavors: pre-configured workflows that are downloadable and instantly deployable, workflows that are easily configurable and API-connected to any enterprise system, and fully customized workflows designed and configured to any customer-specific frontline use cases. In addition to the popular workflows featured above, other Orion workflows for retail include:</span></p>
<p><b>Register Back Up Workflow</b><span style="font-weight: 200;"> and </span><b>Locked Case Alert Workflow </b><span style="font-weight: 200;">automate basic requests, ensuring a response or escalation to a manager until the request is met — all without disrupting the customer experience with a disruptive PA call. </span><b>Item Location Workflow </b><span style="font-weight: 200;">and</span><b> Order Status Workflow </b><span style="font-weight: 200;">query backend systems to instantly access information without leaving the customer’s side. </span></p>
<p><b>Customer Arrival Notification Workflow </b><span style="font-weight: 200;">assists with faster fulfillment times for omnichannel methods like BOPIS, BOPAC, or same-day delivery. </span><b>Loss Prevention</b><span style="font-weight: 200;"> integrates security and loss prevention systems with workflows and voice alerts to active users with designated response protocols. </span><b>SME Access Workflow </b><span style="font-weight: 200;">bridges the knowledge gap between retail floor workers and customer expectations by instantly connecting workers to the answers they need from SMEs who know the topic best — even if they are offsite at a different location. </span></p>
<p><b>All Call Workflow </b><span style="font-weight: 200;">enables fast dissemination of information to the entire team. </span><b>Emergency Response Workflow</b><span style="font-weight: 200;"> provides the dispersed retail workforce with the ability to instantly escalate a call for help and trigger multi-step workflows, including contacting first responders and instantly alerting managers to an emergency, theft, or incident. </span><b>Archive</b> <b>Workflow</b><span style="font-weight: 200;"> automatically stores all data and information sent over the system so managers can review incidents or workflows for analysis or compliance needs. </span></p>

	<h2>Voice Automations and Workflows Built for the Hospitality Workforce</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Exceptional properties can have world-class facilities, but if hospitality teams can’t match quality amenities with quality service, guest experience suffers. Today’s hospitality teams are tasked with providing exceptional service but are often understaffed or in perpetual new hire cycles. The pressure to maintain ratings and meet guest expectations leaves many teams searching for ways to amplify the abilities of each team member, helping them accomplish more with less. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Orion’s Voice AI Platform solves this problem with our proprietary <a href="https://www.orionlabs.io/process-automation/">Voice AI Bots</a> that participate in Orion’s talk groups — serving as additional team members or digital employees and amplifying the abilities of each team member. Whether off-the-shelf or customized, our Voice AI Bots help teams like housekeeping, events, engineering, food and beverage, recreation, concierge, grounds, security, and more. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">The on-the-go workforce uses voice-activated access to information and automated workflows to stay heads up and engaged with guests. New employees gain the edge-delivered support and connectivity to data they need to be immediately productive with simple, spoken commands. Management gains greater visibility and insight into team members' actions and operations. They also spend less time trying to reach team members and more time on high-value tasks that impact the guest experience. </span></p>

<h2>Voice Automation for the Hospitality Industry</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Guest experience is critical to maintaining successful properties and top travel ratings. Orion Voice Bots support workflows that help staff respond to guest requests faster, anticipate guest needs, and customize experiences to guest preferences. Here are examples of Hospitality Voice Bots: </span></p>

	<h3>Speech-to-Speech Language Translation</h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Hospitality teams frequently bring on staff that do not speak English as their primary language, resulting in multilingual teams and language barriers that can lead to miscommunication. Orion Voice AI Bots enable bidirectional, speech-to-speech language translation in over 60 languages, so workers are always communicating in real-time in their native language. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Orion employs </span><a href="https://www.orionlabs.io/ibm-think-2019-watson-ai/"><span style="font-weight: 200;">IBM Watson</span></a><span style="font-weight: 200;">’s powerful AI capabilities to instantly translate speech inputs to support real-time communication. A staff person speaks in their native language, and Orion’s platform leverages our proprietary transcoding, machine learning, and best-in-class third-party services to decode language inputs and translate that to the receiver’s native language and back again. Orion’s Language Translation Bots also support additional Voice AI Bots and workflows (like those outlined below) in the user’s native language.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Teams eliminate language barriers, increasing the efficiency and safety of operations for any worker. Managers can hire the best available staff during the current labor shortage — regardless of their native language. </span></p>

<div class="siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget">
	<h3>Emergency Alert</h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Safety measures are mission-critical to hospitality operations with guests and workers dispersed across a building or property. Guest safety is paramount, and staff members like housekeeping often operate alone. Orion ensures team members and managers know staff or guests in need will receive a quick, automated response and backup in a crisis. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Orion’s Emergency Alert Bot supports emergencies, critical, or urgent situations with advanced location information and multi-step process automation that speeds incident response times. Emergency workflows are triggered by words like “Help-Help.” Once triggered, the closest security and management personnel are deployed for immediate assistance to the location with both x and y-axis precision. An automatic alert email is sent to predetermined team members, and e911 calls including latitude and longitude information can be made without leaving the platform. During the incident, Orion captures every data point and records all messages, transcribing them for future analysis or reporting. </span></p>

	<h3>Voice-Automated Checklists</h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Small automations of routine, everyday tasks like checklists have a big impact across functions like maintenance, security, and housekeeping. Instead of paper and clipboards, workers use voice to walk through checklists that automatically store and archive their responses so no information is lost or steps are missed.  </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">With our Checklist Bot, housekeeping uses voice to walk through a cleaning checklist for each room with voice prompts for each cleaning stage. Once complete, they can note the room is clean and use voice to update backend systems to show the room is now ready. In the case of security, guards can start a patrol checklist that prompts them to to check specific entrances or patrol certain areas.

	<h3>Voice-Access to Hospitality Systems</h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">One of the most transformative ways Orion Voice AI Bots amplify hospitality work is by enabling voice query access to backend or corporate systems like HotSOS, Alice, and more. Orion Bots use proprietary machine learning to recognize the task-oriented language used by hospitality workers and transcode those inputs into data that can update or query back-end systems. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Each hospitality operation is unique, but all properties can benefit from Orion Voice AI Bots that help retrieve or update information in corporate systems like property management systems, housekeeping or maintenance software, and labor management software.</span></p>

	<h3>VIP Guest Arrival</h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">Voice AI Bots support multistep workflows like VIP Guest Arrival that alert teams and backend systems and prompt actions the moment a guest arrives on property. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 200;">The VIP Guest Arrival Bot invokes specific actions for front gate attendants, valets, management, concierge, and housekeeping. Back-end systems and staff work together to ensure room preparation is confirmed or expedited and amenities and dining reservations are double-checked. Back-end systems send automated emails to relevant staff or management to note guest preferences or information like birthdays and anniversaries. Guests receive a seamless welcome every time. </span></p>
