New York – September 19, 2026 -- accessiBe has launched Code Agent, a tool that reviews GitHub pull requests against WCAG 2.2 AA standards and proposes inline fixes before code merges into production. The capability is live in beta for eligible accessFlow customers.

Code Agent flags the exact line causing an accessibility issue inside the pull request

The tool runs automatically when a pull request opens or updates, or can be triggered manually. It writes a suggested fix directly in the PR, similar to a teammate's review comment, while developers retain full control to accept, reject, or discuss the change in the thread. Nothing merges without developer review.

Moraga, Calif. – September 19, 2026 -- Atombeam's Neurpac data-compaction technology achieved a 75% reduction in LiDAR data volume during testing on SIMSY's private cellular network, a result that will now be offered to SIMSY's enterprise customers moving large real-time data sets.

Neurpac cuts LiDAR payloads by 75% in SIMSY network tests

SIMSY, which operates its own cellular core network for enterprise device deployments, confirmed the 75% compaction rate during trials of Neurpac, addressing a bandwidth constraint that had previously blocked efficient LiDAR transmission over cellular links. Alex Taylor, CEO and co-founder of SIMSY, said the uplink has historically been the bottleneck in cellular networks, offering far less capacity than downlink, which is exactly where large data types like LiDAR become stuck.
