Epson Document Capture Pro helps organizations move information documents into digital systems with greater ease and consistency

In many offices, a single document can pass through several steps before the work around it is complete. An invoice may need approval before it is filed for future reference. A signed contract may need to be stored in a shared folder, while a completed form may need to be scanned, named, sorted, and sent to another team. As businesses bring more of their operations into digital systems, they are also reviewing how physical documents fit into those processes. Printed forms, contracts, invoices, receipts, and records continue to move through many workplaces. Businesses need an efficient way to capture the information on those pages and make it available through the systems their teams already use. Epson Document Capture Pro supports this process by helping businesses create structured scanning workflows through compatible Epson DS series devices, allowing organizations to access its document capture and workflow capabilities without purchasing separate software. A Smarter Way to Captu

Salesforce Agentic Enterprise Index: Agent Deployments More Than Double Year-Over-Year

Salesforce has released its 2026 Agentic Enterprise Index, which analyzes aggregated AI usage data from the Agentforce platform to uncover how businesses are deploying, using, and getting value out of AI agents. The results this year show a tale of two rollouts, a bifurcation in the global business landscape in which an industry’s operational DNA and business needs can dictate how its digital workforce is deployed. High-volume, task-specific deployments: Most common among consumer-facing sectors, this approach leans into high volume and speed to tackle immediate customer needs. Versatile, multi-step deployments: Seen in more operationally complex and heavily regulated fields like Manufacturing and Public Sector, this strategy prioritizes building agents capable of taking on a wide variety of tasks that require cross-functional business logic. Each type of rollout deepens trust and results in ROI, but the future of agentic AI rests on the coexistence of both deployment models—delive

President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.'s renewed commitment to nuclear energy during his 2026 State of the Nation Address (SONA) marks a significant milestone in the Philippines' energy transition, signaling the strongest national endorsement of nuclear power yet since the country adopted its nuclear energy roadmap, according to Alpas Pinas.
