What you’ll find in the newsroom

We don’t issue press releases for the sake of it. When we post here, something has actually happened — a product launch, a customer milestone, an award, or an event worth telling you about.

Coverage includes product announcements, partnership news, team updates, and industry recognition. If you’re a journalist or researcher writing about AI in manufacturing, use the Press kit for company assets, founder bios, and approved imagery.

GoSmarter is built by Nightingale HQ, a Welsh AI company founded in 2018. Our newsroom covers both brands.
