SendQuick Pte. Ltd. (“SendQuick”), a leading unified API platform for messaging services is honoured and excited to announce the strategic partnership with Asteria Corporation (“Asteria”) to revolutionise messaging integration.

Asteria’s Singapore subsidiary, Asteria Technology Pte. Ltd.

— Wong Jeat Shyan (CEO of SendQuick Pte Ltd.)

After exploring potential synergies at an exhibitor event in Singapore, the two companies recognised that together, Gravio and SendQuick.io can enhance cross-border and cross-platform communication between humans and technologies. This partnership allows customers to seamlessly connect solutions, services, and messaging platforms without requiring complex coding.

Background
Modern business operations often involve multiple layers of applications and complex communication methods between employees and customers. While Gravio addresses the need for system-wide aggregation and integration, existing applications often require bi-directional last mile communication between the systems and users.

As common messaging platforms differ across regions, SendQuick’s unified messaging solution not only addresses the need to support multiple platforms to cater to each market but also enables seamless integration between Gravio and the messenger of choice.

This partnership empowers Gravio users to simplify messaging integration by connecting popular messengers such as WhatsApp, Telegram, Facebook Messenger, Slack and Microsoft Teams, all through SendQuick’s unified API. Users can efficiently build better solutions across various messaging platforms, improving communication with customers and employees.

SendQuick users also benefit from enhanced data integration through this partnership. The collaboration enables bidirectional data exchanges with Gravio-based AI/IoT applications and Smart Building solutions to trigger and run different business processes, including automated workflows, and response-based fault reports. This empowers even off-site users to acknowledge and respond to sensor-based detection notifications (such as temperature control and intrusion for facility and store managers) delivered in real time.

Future Plans
Asteria Technology and SendQuick’s collaboration will initially target Southeast Asia and Japan, leveraging each other’s advanced AI/IoT technology and expanding connectivity options to popular messaging platforms worldwide.

Asteria will also explore further integration opportunities to enhance its other products with SendQuick’s capabilities. Potential integration plans include connecting business applications and messaging platforms with Asteria Warp to deliver notifications regarding operational activities based on specific system outputs. Additionally, Platio could be integrated to facilitate real-time information and image sharing on-site via smartphones for various business processes.
