EDMONTON, Alberta, Jan. 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Visionstate Corp. (TSXV: VIS) (“Visionstate” or the “Company”) Since the launch of Visionstate’s WandaMOBILE application in 2021, the potential applications for the technology have grown dramatically and has opened opportunities for the Company to track the cleaning of virtually any location, from municipal ashtrays to cannabis grow rooms.
Visionstate is currently engaged in a pilot project with a Canadian capital city to track publicly accessible ashtrays in high-traffic locations. In total, the municipality is tracking 40 different locations using WandaMOBILE with the potential to track up to 14,000, including bus shelters, recreation centres, and other city-owned facilities that require scheduled cleanings and maintenance.
“This pilot project demonstrates the versatility and scalability of WandaMOBILE,” explained Visionstate CEO John Putters. “Whereas at one time our technology was restroom-centric, today we can track virtually anything that requires regular cleaning and maintenance, including public ashtrays and cannabis grow rooms.”
WandaMOBILE is a mobile app that tracks cleaning activities, supply replenishment and provides detailed analytics on cleaning performance and more importantly, it gives management information on whether new protocols introduced as a result of COVID-19 are actually being met.
“WandaMOBILE is an essential tool for frontline workers to track their cleaning activities and whether or not they have met the new standards introduced as a result of the global pandemic,” Putters explained. “For facility managers, it’s a very easy but, more importantly, affordable tool to implement, and provides detailed data and analytics to measure performance.”
The opportunity for Visionstate technology to be adopted by municipalities is substantial. In Canada alone there are 3,700 municipalities, each of which can track the cleaning of thousands of different locations or physical assets. In the US there is an estimated 89,000 municipalities facing the same challenges.
A market share of just ten (10) percent of this market represents thousands of activations for the Company’s mobile application. Visionstate’s business model is based on software as a service (SaaS), not only making the app affordable, but significantly building the Company’s residual income as it acquires additional customers. The SaaS model earns Visionstate monthly residuals on a scaled basis from $24.95 per month to $14.95 per month for a 36-month term depending on the number of activations. For municipalities, the potential number of activations is over 300,000 across North America that readily translates to millions of dollars of potential revenue.
Visionstate also completed a project to track the cleaning of cannabis grow rooms for a leading producer and packager in Canada, a process that is mandated by federal government regulations. The implementation of the app in this sector significantly reduces paperwork while providing managers with detailed analytics to ensure regulations are being met.
“The implementation of WandaMOBILE for the cannabis sector proves the versatility of our technology and creates another opportunity for WANDA™,” Putters added.
