MLS Innovation Inc: New MAIC available for all Android devices

November 18th, 2019

MLS announces that its Artificial Intelligence and Voice Recognition Platform MAIC (ΜLS Artificial Intelligence Center) becomes available for all Android devices.

Having a presence of more than 7 years since the launch of the first mobile phone with embedded technologies for voice recognition and artificial intelligence, and having built a base of more than 300K active users, MLS redefines the user interface with our mobile devices and presents the next generation of MAIC.

 Specifically, by downloading the application, users will extend their device capabilities and will be able to perform a wide range of actions, speaking in Greek. Indicatively, they will be able to speak naturally and ask MAIC:

  • Wake me up at 8 in the morning
  • Find me Chinese restaurants
  • What will the weather be in London tomorrow?
  • Turn on the light in the living room
  • Find me the nearest ATM

The above indicative list will be constantly enriched with new updates of the application, covering more and more users' needs.

With two versions available on Play Store, one for MLS devices and one for third party Android devices, the user obtains all the enhanced capabilities the new digital assistant can offer in the Greek language and upgrades substantially his user experience. Hence, users unfamiliar with technology are now able to make their everyday lives easier, talking to their phone of tablet.

MAIC will be available for free for MLS devices, raising the level of MLS smartphones and tablets and giving them a competitive edge. For third party devices, MAIC will be available as a paid app, and will replace Google's smart assistant which is in English.

Except Greek MAIC on Play Store, MLS will proceed with versions in other languages (Serbian, Bulgarian, etc). MLS will also showcase this particular product to telecommunication providers, aiming at exclusive agreements per country for all Android phones available by the respective provider, charging a royalty per device.
