noopener\">DerbySoft<\/a>&nbsp;has acquired&nbsp;<a href=_-132.html target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Arise<\/a>, an artificial intelligence-powered platform helping travel advisors improve communications with suppliers and reconcile hotel commissions, as exclusively shared with PhocusWire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Arise, a&nbsp;<a href=_-133.html>PhocusWire Hot 25 Startup for 2019<\/a>, launched in 2017 as a blockchain-based solution for hotel distribution and reservations. The company pivoted in 2023, despite some implementations, because of the challenges related to wider adoption of blockchain technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe shifted focus to AI-driven solutions that the industry could immediately adopt. Leveraging our deep understanding of hotel-distributor workflows, Arise identified key areas where AI could streamline booking management and B2B processes, driving greater efficiency and automation,\u201d said Nadim El Manawy, co-founder and CEO of Arise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed but DerbySoft said in a statement the deal supports its strategy around streamlining and automating elements of the supplier-distribution relationship in business travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBy unifying booking data into a single record, Arise enhances visibility, optimizes workflows and reduces reliance on third-party services,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The technology helps speed up payment processing and aims to ensure a more efficient and transparent process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDerbySoft anticipates the needs of the travel industry and delivers innovative, highperformance solutions for our clients,\u201d said Duane Overgaard, divisional CEO for hospitality at DerbySoft. \u201cIntegrating Arise\u2019s technology into our platform further strengthens our commitment to business travel by providing accuracy and efficiency in commission reconciliation, as well as robust communication tools between travel agents and hotels.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read the full article exclusively on <a
