Flybits’ Context-aware Apps Deliver Personalized Experiences

Flybits’ Context-aware Apps Deliver Personalized Experiences
By Julie Muhn (@julieschicktanz) Posted on
Categories: FinovateFall 2015, Flybits

This post is part of our live coverage of FinovateFall 2015.

FlybitsLogoOur first presenter of FinovateFall is Flybits showing how it uses user context to personalize apps:

Context-aware apps that deliver personalized experiences have always required lots of custom development. The sheer variety of interfaces usually leads to complex apps that are hard to change. Flybits solves this problem with a simple, integrated way to incorporate all aspects of user context—including location from beacons, wi-fi, etc.—and personalize app behavior. Our SDKs let you Flybits-enable any app and transform it. Our visual Experience Studio gives you unprecedented agility in changing live apps as you refine your customer-engagement strategy. Flybits runs in the cloud for ease of use, scalability, and elasticity.

Presenters: Hossein Rahnama, founder and chief product officer of Flybits, and CEO Jerry Rudisin
