  • EPC Group Expands Power BI Copilot With Enterprise Multi-Model AI Architecture

    EPC Group Expands Power BI Copilot With Enterprise Multi-Model AI Architecture

    New architecture integrates Copilot, Azure OpenAI, Claude, and Perplexity to transform Microsoft Power BI into an AI-driven enterprise decision platform.

    At most organizations, Copilot is only the starting point. We built five additional AI layers so leaders get a complete decision intelligence platform.”
    — Errin O’Connor – EPC Group Founder

    HOUSTON, TX, UNITED STATES, March 13, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — EPC Group, a leading artificial intelligence (AI) and business intelligence consulting firm, today announced an expanded enterprise AI architecture for Microsoft Power BI that extends Microsoft Copilot with five additional AI intelligence layers. The new solution enables organizations to operationalize advanced analytics, predictive modeling, and AI-driven insights across their Microsoft Fabric and Power BI environments.

    The architecture integrates Copilot for Power BI with Azure OpenAI, OpenAI, Claude, Perplexity, automated machine learning (AutoML), Microsoft Cognitive Services, native AI-powered visuals, and open-source AI frameworks including Meta Llama and Mistral. Together these technologies transform Power BI from a traditional reporting platform into an intelligent decision engine capable of delivering predictive analytics, automated insights, natural language exploration, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), agentic AI workflows, and AI-generated narrative explanations for executive decision-making.

    “At most organizations, Copilot is only the starting point,” said Errin O’Connor, Founder and Chief AI Architect of EPC Group, recognized as one of the Top 10 AI Architects in North America. “Over the past two years, I have personally led the development of this multi-layer AI architecture to expand Power BI beyond Copilot into a complete enterprise decision intelligence platform. By integrating Microsoft Fabric, Azure OpenAI, and leading large language model platforms such as OpenAI, Claude, Perplexity, and open-source AI, organizations can unlock conversational access to governed data while enabling predictive and agentic intelligence across their analytics environments.”

    The EPC Group architecture introduces a structured six-layer AI framework designed to standardize AI capabilities across Power BI deployments while maintaining enterprise-grade governance, security, and compliance.

    Layer 1 – Copilot for Power BI
    The first layer leverages Microsoft Copilot for Power BI, allowing business users to interact with enterprise datasets through natural language queries. Copilot enables the rapid creation of reports, automated generation of DAX measures, semantic model exploration, and conversational analytics that make complex datasets accessible to non-technical users.

    Layer 2 – Native AI Visuals
    The second layer standardizes Microsoft’s native AI-powered visuals within Power BI. These include Key Influencers, Decomposition Tree, Smart Narrative, anomaly detection, and Q&A visuals. EPC Group deploys these capabilities through a governed pattern library that ensures consistent modeling practices, row-level security enforcement, and explainable AI across enterprise dashboards. These AI visuals enable organizations to automatically identify drivers behind business performance metrics, uncover patterns in operational data, and generate human-readable explanations of complex analytics.

    Layer 3 – Automated Machine Learning in Fabric Dataflows
    The third layer introduces automated machine learning (AutoML) capabilities within Microsoft Fabric and Power BI dataflows. Using AutoML, organizations can build predictive models for scenarios such as customer churn prediction, revenue forecasting, demand planning, and risk analysis without requiring dedicated data science teams. EPC Group delivers repeatable implementation blueprints that train predictive models within dataflows, score datasets automatically, and publish results directly into Power BI semantic models and executive dashboards. This architecture allows predictive analytics to become part of everyday business intelligence workflows rather than a separate data science initiative.

    Layer 4 – Large Language Model and Agentic AI Integration
    The fourth layer integrates large language models (LLMs) and agentic AI workflows into the Power BI analytics stack. Through secure API integrations, Azure Functions, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) architecture backed by vector search, EPC Group enables Power BI environments to connect with leading AI platforms including Azure OpenAI, OpenAI, Claude, Perplexity, and open-source models such as Meta Llama and Mistral. These integrations enable advanced natural language querying, contextual data exploration, semantic search across enterprise knowledge bases, and automated narrative generation that can explain trends, anomalies, and business drivers in plain language. EPC Group’s agentic AI layer allows AI models to autonomously retrieve, reason over, and act on enterprise data — surfacing insights proactively rather than waiting for users to ask.

    Layer 5 – Microsoft Cognitive Services Enrichment
    The fifth layer incorporates Microsoft Cognitive Services into enterprise data pipelines. These services enable text classification, sentiment analysis, language detection, entity extraction, and document intelligence to enrich structured and unstructured data before it enters Power BI datasets. For example, organizations can analyze customer feedback, support tickets, contracts, and survey responses using AI-driven text analytics. The enriched results can then be surfaced within dashboards as measurable business metrics, allowing leadership teams to quantify customer sentiment, operational risks, and market trends.

    Layer 6 – Automated Insights and Forecasting
    The sixth layer introduces automated insight generation and forecasting capabilities directly into executive dashboards. Using Power BI’s Quick Insights, built-in forecasting algorithms, anomaly detection models, and Copilot-generated narrative explanations, organizations can create dashboards that continuously surface emerging trends and risks. These capabilities enable business leaders to move from reactive reporting toward proactive decision-making. Executives can receive automated alerts when anomalies occur, view predictive forecasts for revenue or operational performance, and understand the underlying drivers behind those predictions.

    Transforming Business Intelligence into Decision Intelligence
    By combining these six layers under a unified responsible AI governance framework, EPC Group enables organizations to transform traditional dashboards into AI-powered decision intelligence platforms. Instead of simply viewing historical data, executives gain access to predictive insights, agentic AI workflows, automated explanations, and conversational analytics capabilities that dramatically accelerate decision-making. The architecture is designed to integrate seamlessly with Microsoft Fabric, Azure Data Services, enterprise data warehouses, and modern cloud analytics environments.

    EPC Group delivers this architecture through its Power BI and Microsoft Fabric consulting services, including enterprise data modeling, AI integration, governance frameworks, dashboard architecture, and scalable deployment automation. The firm has completed more than 1,500 Power BI implementations and over 5,200 Microsoft platform deployments worldwide, helping organizations modernize analytics platforms across Microsoft 365, Azure, and Microsoft Fabric environments. With nearly three decades of Microsoft consulting experience, EPC Group combines deep technical expertise with enterprise AI strategy to help organizations deploy analytics platforms that are secure, scalable, and capable of supporting the next generation of AI-driven decision-making.

    Organizations interested in extending Microsoft Copilot and Power BI with multi-model, agentic, and open-source AI solutions can learn more at www.epcgroup.net, schedule a strategy session with EPC Group’s AI and Power BI experts, or contact the firm directly at contact@epcgroup.net or (888) 381-9725.

  • Red Piranha Releases 2026 Threat Intelligence Report Highlighting Shift in Global Cyber Threat Landscape

    Red Piranha Releases 2026 Threat Intelligence Report Highlighting Shift in Global Cyber Threat Landscape

    Red Piranha’s 2026 Threat Intelligence Report analyses 80M+ security events, revealing rising cyber espionage, APT activity, and evolving attacker tactics.

    The findings reflect a clear evolution in attacker strategy and highlight the need for organisations to rethink how they approach threat detection.”
    — Adam Bennett, CEO of Red Piranha

    MELBOURNE, VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA, March 14, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Red Piranha, Australia’s leading developer and manufacturer of advanced cybersecurity technology, has released its 2026 Annual Threat Intelligence Report, revealing a significant shift in the global cyber threat landscape as attackers increasingly prioritise cyber espionage, persistent access, and long-term intelligence gathering over immediate disruptive attacks.

    The report analyses more than 80 million security events, tracking 110 advanced persistent threat (APT) campaigns and thousands of intrusion attempts across enterprise and critical infrastructure environments.

    The findings show that modern attackers are adopting espionage-led intrusion strategies, focusing on gaining access to identity systems, establishing persistence within networks, and maintaining covert access to sensitive environments.

    Download our Threat Intelligence Report 2026

    Key Findings from the Report:
    1. Cyber espionage campaigns are increasingly driving modern intrusions, with attackers prioritising stealth and intelligence gathering
    2. Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) groups are adopting identity-based attack methods to gain long-term access to enterprise networks
    3. Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) bypass techniques are becoming deliberate attacker tradecraft
    4. Living-off-the-Land techniques allow attackers to operate using legitimate system tools, reducing the likelihood of detection

    The report highlights how attackers increasingly exploit identity systems, credentials, and legitimate administrative tools to move laterally across networks and maintain persistent access.

    In many cases, disruptive payloads such as ransomware are only deployed after attackers have already established extensive access within a victim environment.

    Implications for Security Leaders

    The findings suggest that many organisations may still rely too heavily on endpoint-centric visibility, even as attackers adopt techniques specifically designed to evade traditional endpoint monitoring.

    To defend against these evolving tactics, the report recommends expanding detection capabilities across identity systems, network traffic, cloud infrastructure, and endpoint telemetry, ensuring that a single blind spot does not allow attackers to maintain persistent access.

    To support this approach, Red Piranha delivers Threat Detection, Investigation and Response (TDIR) capabilities through its Crystal Eye platform, combining behavioural analytics, threat intelligence, and cross-domain telemetry to help security teams identify advanced threats earlier in the attack lifecycle.

    By correlating activity across multiple security layers, TDIR enables organisations to detect identity abuse, lateral movement, and Living-off-the-Land activity commonly used in advanced cyber espionage campaigns.

  • Sizing Water Softener Launches Comprehensive Online Platform

    Sizing Water Softener Launches Comprehensive Online Platform

    New Platform Combines a Water Softener Sizing Calculator, Water Hardness Calculator, and Full-Spectrum Water Treatment Guidance to Eliminate Costly Guesswork.

    PHOENIX, AZ, UNITED STATES, March 13, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Approximately 85 percent of U.S. homes are affected by hard water, yet most homeowners purchase a water softener without testing their water or calculating the system capacity they actually need. The result is a market flooded with undersized units that regenerate too often and oversized systems that waste salt and money. Sizing Water Softener is a new online platform built to solve this problem—offering free, data-driven calculators, expert water treatment guidance, and a comprehensive resource for both residential and commercial water quality solutions.

    Hard water scale costs the average U.S. household an estimated $1,000 or more per year in wasted energy and maintenance, while reducing appliance lifespans by up to 50 percent. Water heaters, dishwashers, washing machines, and plumbing fittings all degrade faster when calcium and magnesium deposits go unchecked. The U.S. water treatment industry—now valued at more than $9 billion—has grown rapidly in response, yet consumer education around proper system sizing has lagged far behind adoption rates.

    “The most common and costly mistake homeowners make is choosing a water softener based on price or brand alone—without knowing their water hardness level or daily water demand. An improperly sized system fails to protect your home and costs more to operate. That is exactly what our platform was designed to prevent.”

    — Founder, Sizing Water Softener

    ONLINE TOOLS AND CALCULATORS

    The platform’s flagship Water Softener Sizing Calculator accounts for household size, daily water usage, and hardness levels to deliver a precise capacity recommendation. It is supported by four additional free tools:
    • Water Hardness Calculator — Converts hardness readings between grains per gallon (GPG), parts per million (PPM), and mg/L
    • Water Usage Estimator — Calculates total daily household water demand based on occupancy and usage patterns
    • Softener Capacity Calculator — Determines grain capacity requirements between regeneration cycles
    • Household Water Demand Calculator — Maps peak usage patterns to ensure the selected system performs under real conditions

    “Water hardness varies significantly by region, water source, and even season. A family of four in a high-hardness area may need twice the softener capacity of the same household in a moderate-hardness region. Tools that incorporate actual hardness data and consumption figures give consumers a decisive advantage.”
    — Licensed Water Treatment Specialist

    WATER TREATMENT SERVICES AND GUIDANCE

    Beyond its calculator tools, Sizing Water Softener provides expert guidance across the full range of residential and commercial water treatment services, including:
    • Whole house water softeners and salt-based water softeners for comprehensive hard water control
    • Salt-free water conditioners, carbon filtration systems, and whole house water filtration systems
    • Reverse osmosis systems for high-purity drinking water at the point of use
    • Iron filtration systems and well water treatment solutions for private water supplies
    • City water filtration solutions addressing chlorine and disinfection byproducts
    • Commercial water treatment solutions and residential water treatment services
    • Water testing and analysis, softener installation guidance, and maintenance guidance

    WHY PROPER SIZING MATTERS

    Using the right tools before purchasing a water softener protects consumers from two equally damaging outcomes. Undersized systems allow residual hardness to damage plumbing and appliances. Oversized systems drive up purchase costs and salt consumption without delivering better results. The Sizing Water Softener platform helps consumers avoid both extremes—extending appliance lifespans, reducing scale buildup in pipes, lowering energy costs, and ensuring every dollar spent on water treatment delivers measurable value.

    “The water treatment market is expanding, but consumer education has not kept pace. Platforms that put accurate sizing tools and treatment guidance directly in consumers’ hands are a meaningful step forward for the entire industry.”
    — Water Quality Industry Analyst

    GET STARTED

    Homeowners, property managers, plumbing contractors, and water treatment professionals can visit Sizing Water Softener to access the free Water Softener Sizing Calculator, test their water hardness, and explore the full range of water treatment solutions available for their property type. Start with the right data—then invest with confidence.


    About Sizing Water Softener

    Sizing Water Softener is a trusted online authority for water softener sizing tools, water hardness calculators, and water treatment guidance serving homeowners, property managers, and industry professionals across the United States. The platform’s mission is to replace guesswork with data—equipping consumers with precise calculations and expert knowledge to select, install, and maintain the right water treatment system for their specific water conditions and household demands.

    From the Water Softener Sizing Calculator and Softener Capacity Calculator to guidance on whole house water softeners, reverse osmosis systems, iron filtration, and commercial water treatment, Sizing Water Softener is the definitive resource for anyone who wants to understand how to size a water softener and take lasting control of their water quality.

  • Jazz Vocalist Eric Van Aro Announces New Eric Van Aro Quartet Album Recorded Live in Studio

    Jazz Vocalist Eric Van Aro Announces New Eric Van Aro Quartet Album Recorded Live in Studio

    The only thing being fooled on April 1 is the idea that music needs to be perfect”
    — Eric Van Aro

    LUGANO, SWITZERLAND, March 13, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Recorded live in a single room on vintage equipment, the project captures four musicians creating music in real time.

    The Eric Van Aro Quartet will release a new studio album on April 1, 2026, a project that strips modern recording back to its essentials and returns to the raw spirit of live performance.

    For vocalist and bandleader Eric Van Aro, the album represents a deliberate step away from the digital safety nets that dominate contemporary recording. Captured live in a single room on vintage equipment, the sessions feature no click tracks, no overdubs, and no post production corrections. What remains is the sound of four musicians performing together in real time.

    Van Aro grew up in an era when music was recorded to tape and the magic of a performance depended on the moment. Surrounded by the warm hiss of analog machines and the ritual of the live take, he developed a deep respect for the authenticity that comes from musicians responding to one another in the same room. That philosophy drives the new album.

    “This isn’t just an album,” Van Aro said in a preview statement released with the first video teaser. “It’s the sound of four musicians chasing the feeling that started it all. The safety nets are off. The tape is rolling. The music is laid bare.”

    The album arrives with a preview performance released on YouTube that showcases a relaxed vocal jazz piece centered around piano. The recording hints at the project’s sonic direction: an elegant blend of vocal jazz, swing, and contemporary influences, guided by Van Aro’s signature cool vocal style.

    Known for moving freely between musical worlds, Van Aro’s career has explored jazz, rock, Latin rhythms, and electronic music. Yet jazz has remained a central thread. In the quartet format, his voice sits at the heart of arrangements that draw from classic swing, touches of Bossa Nova and blues, and echoes of the American Songbook tradition.

    The new recording highlights that vocal focus. Van Aro’s expressive range moves effortlessly from smooth and intimate phrasing to moments of soulful texture, supported by musicians who respond dynamically in the moment rather than following a rigid studio grid.

    The result is a recording that prioritizes feel over perfection. Each take captures the tension and spontaneity that comes when musicians commit fully to a live performance.

    Van Aro acknowledges the symbolism of the April 1 release date with a touch of humor.

    “The only thing being fooled on April 1,” he said, “is the idea that music needs to be perfect.”

    Eric also explained in a recent video how it is significant:

    “April 1 is a very important date for me. In fact, in 1977, on April 1, two monumental things happened. I got my high school diploma, which was a miracle in itself since I was a lazy bum. And most importantly, my mom told me for the very first time that I actually had some talent.”

    With this album, the Eric Van Aro Quartet offers listeners something increasingly rare in modern production: music that breathes, reacts, and unfolds exactly as it happened.

    Release Date: April 1, 2026
    Artist: Eric Van Aro Quartet
    Format: Live studio recording
    Vinyl-Only Release. Limited Edition of 100 Numbered Copies.

    About Eric Van Aro

  • Pitch Capital Launches AI Fundraising Platform to Help Founders Book Qualified Investor Meetings

    Pitch Capital Launches AI Fundraising Platform to Help Founders Book Qualified Investor Meetings

    New end-to-end system connects founders with pre-matched investors and replaces months of cold outreach with a structured path to qualified meetings.

    BOCA RATON, FL, UNITED STATES, March 13, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Pitch Capital, a fundraising technology company founded by serial entrepreneur Franco Ieraci, today launched an AI-powered platform designed to help founders secure 8 to 15 qualified investor meetings in as little as 90 days. The subscription-based system generates investor-ready pitch decks and financial models, identifies aligned investors, and helps founders book and track live investor conversations.

    The launch comes as many founders report spending six to twelve months on fundraising efforts that yield few meaningful results. Cold email campaigns, expensive pitch decks, and improvised financial models often fail to generate serious investor conversations before runway runs out. Pitch Capital is designed to replace that fragmented process with a structured, data-informed system.

    “The difference between founders who close term sheets and those who run out of runway often comes down to whether they have a reliable way to get in front of the right investors,” said Franco Ieraci, founder of Pitch Capital. “We built Pitch Capital so founders can go from zero to investor-ready on a single platform, with a professional deck, an investor-grade model, a targeted list of funds and angel investors, and a clear path to meaningful meetings.”

    Franco developed the methodology over the past decade while bootstrapping a company to acquisition and raising $67 million across multiple rounds. He invested more than $417,000 of personal capital to refine a system designed to work for founders across sectors, stages, and business models.

    Within the platform, founders can generate a pitch deck and financial model in about 90 seconds using templates informed by companies that have collectively raised tens of millions of dollars. The system then analyzes a startup’s stage, traction, sector, and target raise to surface investors who actively back similar companies, assigning a probability score to help prioritize outreach.

    A built-in investor CRM keeps every conversation and follow-up in one place, while a secure deal room organizes sensitive materials such as cap tables and legal documents. Founders can use AI tools to stress-test their narrative before meetings, while a connected escrow account with KYC and AML support helps streamline the closing process when investors decide to invest.

    Every subscription is backed by the “Investor Meeting in 90 Days” Guarantee. If a founder uses the core tools, engages matched investors, and does not secure at least one qualified meeting within 90 days, Pitch Capital offers a full refund under its stated terms.

    “Founders are already doing the work of building real businesses,” Ieraci said. “They should not also have to reinvent the fundraising playbook from scratch. Our aim is to give them a proven, AI-assisted system that shortens the path from first outreach to a funded round.”

  • GlowRow® Unveils Two New Solar-Powered Rigs, Including Holographic Floating Movie Experience

    GlowRow® Unveils Two New Solar-Powered Rigs, Including Holographic Floating Movie Experience

    GlowRow® expands its fleet with innovative solar-powered trailers, introducing “Driftin’ Float Flix” a holographic on-water movie experience.

    Steve Jobs said, “You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards.” Innovations like this run deeper than perceived, forging core memories never forgotten.”
    — Zack Jurasek, Founder of GlowRow

    CORPUS CHRISTI, TX, UNITED STATES, March 13, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — GlowRow® Unveils Two New Solar-Powered Mobile Rigs, Including a Holographic Floating Movie Experience in Corpus Christi


    GlowRow® is raising the bar again with the reveal of two new solar-powered mobile trailer builds designed to expand fleet capacity, elevate special events, and further cement GlowRow® as the leader in nighttime kayaking innovation.

    The GlowRow® Holographic Movie Trailer (Special Events, Coming Soon)
    GlowRow® is preparing to launch what is believed to be the world’s first solar-powered holographic movie display built into a kayak trailer. Designed specifically for special events, this new mobile rig will carry 15 crystal-clear GlowRow® kayaks and deliver a floating movie-night experience inspired by classic drive-in theaters, except this one takes place on the water, under the stars, and fully illuminated.

    The experience will feature wireless, IP67-rated headphones with built-in LED lighting, creating a silent, immersive audio environment similar to a silent disco, except this is not a disco. This is a holographic unveiling of a floating movie experience, engineered to be scalable, immersive, and powered entirely by solar energy.

    GlowRow® is also exploring optional theatrical elements to enhance select screenings, because the only thing better than watching Jaws from a glowing kayak is watching it while a suspicious remote-controlled shark fin may or may not surface nearby.

    Planned location: next door to Doc’s Seafood on North Padre Island in Corpus Christi, Texas. Guests who purchase a GlowRow® North Padre experience will receive a $2 margarita coupon redeemable at Doc’s Seafood.
    The GlowRow® Mobile Trailer (Mobile Expansion)

    In addition to the movie trailer, GlowRow® is unveiling a second mobile rig designed to carry an additional 12 kayaks. This new mobile trailer increases deployment flexibility across markets and supports faster scaling for peak seasons, pop-up operations, and high-demand weekends.

    Kerrville Reopening After the 2025 Flood
    GlowRow® is also reopening its Kerrville location following the catastrophic July 4, 2025 flood. Many lives were lost in that event, and GlowRow® extends heartfelt condolences to those who lost loved ones and livelihoods. Kerrville holds deep significance for the company, and rebuilding the location is both intentional and personal.

    Built on Green Energy, Built for Real-World Use
    GlowRow® operates as a 100 percent solar-powered, zero carbon footprint kayaking company. Every illuminated element, including kayaks, trailers, paddles, and the upcoming holographic movie display, is powered solely through solar energy, reinforcing GlowRow®’s commitment to sustainable, forward-thinking operations.

    Quote
    “GlowRow® does not copy trends. We build the next one. Two new mobile rigs, more capacity, and a special event experience that turns a floating movie night into something people talk about for years.”

    What’s Next
    GlowRow® launch in the “Special Events” section highlighting the holographic floating movie experience and additional limited-availability event offerings designed around GlowRow®’s engineering discipline, safety-first culture, and unmistakable showmanship.

    About GlowRow®
    GlowRow® is an award-winning nighttime kayaking experience built around patented innovation, rigorous safety standards, and unforgettable tours across Texas. Known for its crystal-clear kayaks, proprietary lighting systems, and distinctive brand voice, GlowRow® continues to redefine what’s possible on the water after dark.
