News & Updates
What’s Actually Been Happening at GoSmarter
Company announcements, product launches, and industry news from GoSmarter AI. When something worth telling you about happens — a new feature, a partnership, an event, an award — it shows up here.
We don’t post for the sake of posting. If there’s something in the news category, it’s because something real happened: a product shipped, a customer hit a milestone, an industry event took place, or a piece of external coverage is worth pointing you to.
News items tagged here include product updates, event coverage, industry recognition, and partnership announcements. GoSmarter is built by Nightingale HQ, a Welsh AI company — so you’ll also find news from both brands when they’re relevant to AI in metals manufacturing.
