Mad Systems Inc., the company behind the patented Alice™ personalization platform, announced Alice™ OnBoard. This mobile-first extension delivers the full power of Alice directly to guests’ phones, without installing a single beacon or camera on the exhibit floor.
“Institutions need cutting-edge engagement, but they don’t always have the time or budget for major hardware roll-outs,” said Maris J. Ensing, founder of Mad Systems. “Alice™ OnBoard turns any Wi-Fi network into an intelligent, personalized guide so museums can focus on storytelling while we handle the tech in the cloud, or at the edge.”
Zero hardware, maximum impact
- Instant deployment. Visitors join the venue’s Wi-Fi, scan an RFID tag or QR code, and launch Alice™ OnBoard in their browser.
- Personalized journeys. The patented Alice™ engine tailors media to each guest’s language, age, interests, and accessibility needs, then adapts in real time as the visit unfolds.
- 200+ languages, full accessibility. Captions, audio description, and screen-reader compatibility arrive automatically in the visitor’s preferred language.
- Institution-controlled content. Curators manage Alice’s “Body of Knowledge”; visitors receive the right story, personalized to their preferences.
- Edge or cloud flexibility. Run Alice™ OnBoard entirely in the cloud or deploy it on-premises for ultra-low latency and data-sovereignty peace of mind.
