Airfi prides itself on simplifying the development of connected devices, and in furtherance of that, it has announced a collaboration with AT&T in the form of a reseller agreement.
This agreement will enable Airfi to offer its platform and service with AT&T (News - Alert). It will use the newly released Catalyst by Airfi, designed as a turnkey platform to help OEMs launch and monetize cellular services in their connected products.
“Catalyst by Airfi is helping our customers reduce time-to-market and easily take advantage of our 4G LTE (News - Alert) connectivity,” said Chris Penrose, president, Internet of Things, AT&T. “The combination of AT&T’s network alongside Airfi’s platform and delivery expertise provides an end-to-end solution and helps reduce complexity for customers.”
Airfi, through the Catalyst platform, will work with AT&T and other wireless carriers globally to make it accessible for their OEM customers to reduce development cycles and speed up time-to-market for connected products. This platform has been helping carriers generate additional revenue by enabling them to more quickly and efficiently support OEMs looking to use their networks, regardless of their size.
“AT&T is one of the most trusted wireless carriers in North America and we are delighted they recognize the unique benefits that Catalyst extends to their customers,” said Dariush Zand, CCO and co-founder, Airfi.
Catalyst by Airfi is designed to support multiple go-to-market scenarios. It is available immediately in North America and will rollout globally throughout 2017.
With this new collaboration between Airfi and AT&T, they hope to ensure that OEMs are able to complete their jobs quickly and cost efficiently. This helps companies flourish and new opportunities to arise.
