TORONTO, April 21, 2021 /CNW/ - Predictiv AI
Inc. (TSXV: PAI) (OTC: INOTF) (FSE: 71TA) ("Predictiv AI" or
the "Company"), a software and solutions-provider in the
artificial intelligence markets www.predictiv.ai, is
pleased to announce that it has sold and installed multiple
ThermalPass temperature scanning systems in one of North Carolina's largest school districts. In
accordance with the CDC's new in-person reopening mandate, the
ThermalPass touchless temperature screening system has been
installed in multiple locations at Iredell-Statesville Schools in
the central section of the state where more than 20,000 students
attend classes across 37 campuses.
"We were very impressed with the ease of use of the product
and are thrilled to have implemented it as another layer of
protection within our health and safety protocols," said
Kenny Miller, Assistant
Superintendent, Facilities and Planning, Iredell-Statesville
Schools. "Its accuracy and the speed of scanning, all within the
normal movement of our students, allows us to dedicate resources
elsewhere that would otherwise be required to operate manual
temperature screening solutions. The system also allows us to
remain socially distanced and to adhere to the CDC guidelines.
Working with the ThermalPass team was extremely easy as they are
customer-oriented and interested in providing a quality product, at
a reasonable price, with superior service after the purchase. I
highly recommend ThermalPass and their team if you need a simple,
effective, reasonable health screening solution."

Jason Elmaleh, President of
Commersive Solutions, joint venture partner in ThermalPass said,
"We're thrilled to be working with such a dedicated group of
educators who see the value in our solution now, during the
pandemic and beyond, as we start to get back to our normal lives.
If we are able to reduce the average number of sick days taken from
students being out of school by just half a day, that will result
in well over a half-million dollars of additional district funding
for Iredell-Statesville Schools that would otherwise not be
disbursed. We look forward to our ongoing work with them as we
explore additional integrations such as adding metal detection to
their units."
"We anticipate the education market for ThermalPass will expand
rapidly, especially in the US where the American Rescue Plan Act
was just passed," said Michael
Lende, CEO of Predictiv AI. "This COVID-19 stimulus package
includes an unprecedented US$1.9
trillion aid package to help state agencies and school
districts reopen and sustain the safe operation of schools."
While many factors contribute to school absenteeism, student
illness is believed to be the main driver of student absenteeism.
According to a report by EMist, the average student in the US
(K-12) misses 4.5 days per school year, while the average teacher
misses 5.3 days per school year. The total loss of funding to
education systems associated with student absenteeism each year in
the US is estimated to be $10.7 billion
dollars.
