Ecrio Teams Up with Intel, and Canonical to Deliver AI-Powered Critical Communication Solutions

Ecrio Inc., a leader in AI-powered communication solutions, today announced a strategic collaboration with Intel Corporation (Intel), and Canonical to deliver AI-powered critical communication solutions for industries requiring real-time, resilient, and secure voice and video communications over edge and private networks.

This partnership integrates Ecrio's iota-e, AI-Powered Critical Communication software built on Ubuntu and running on Canonical Kubernetes, with Dell PowerEdge XR8000 edge servers and Intel Xeon Scalable Processors and OpenVINO toolkit to create cutting-edge solutions that enhance business processes whilst ensuring workplace safety for industrial environments.

This dynamic collaboration combines Ecrio's state-of-the-art, standards-compliant communication software—spanning Voice Calling, Push-to-Talk, and Messaging—with unmatched edge server technology to empower Edge AI workloads including Computer Vision-based applications. These innovations pave the way for transformative use cases, from worker safety monitoring and perimeter security to anomaly detection across diverse sectors including construction, manufacturing, and healthcare.

"At Ecrio, we are excited to collaborate with Dell, Intel, and Canonical to provide industries with an end-to-end critical communication solution that ensures safety, security, and operational resilience," said Michel Gannage, CEO at Ecrio. "This collaboration is a testament to our shared vision of enabling smarter, faster, and more secure industrial communication."

"Enterprise Edge AI is revolutionizing how industries operate in real-time, high-stakes environments," said Bhupesh Agrawal, Sr. Director - Network & Edge Business at Intel. "From CPU-native inferencing to Communications, Ecrio's solutions integrated with Intel's Xeon Scalable Processors and OpenVINO toolkit, are enabling a new era of edge intelligence with low latency that ensures safety, efficiency, and resilience in critical communication operations."

"Canonical enables telco customers to unlock economies of scale using best-of-breed and supported open source technologies" said Ivan Ramos, Global Head of Telco at Canonical. "Ecrio's communication platform, built on Ubuntu and running on Canonical Kubernetes, delivers a joined up approach for cloud-to-edge deployments, which is necessary to take AI-powered communication solutions into the future. We are excited to see how this technology will advance remote collaboration and decision support use cases across industries."

Ecrio's AI-powered communication solution was recently recognized as a winner of the National Security Innovation Network's (NSIN) Catastrophic Communications Challenge, reinforcing its critical role in next-generation resilient communication.

Ecrio's solutions will be showcased at MWC Barcelona in the Stands of Intel (Hall 3 Stand 3E31), Dell (Hall 3 Stand 3M10) and Canonical (Hall 2 Stand 2A90).
