Overview
Outsmart provides convergence-enabled technologies for telecom operators to expand beyond basic data and traditional VAS. Its platform helps operators bundle mobile, broadband, AI, and IoT into services such as mobile banking, cloud storage, entertainment, and cybersecurity, targeting both homes and businesses and even enabling cross-border offers. The solution acts as a technology enabler in the VAS ecosystem, supplying the tools to assemble, market, and bill these bundled services, with revenue often shared with operators or via carrier billing. The goal is to diversify operator revenue, cut customer acquisition costs, and grow overall revenue by addressing OTT competition and expanding into new customer segments. Outsmart recently raised about $13 million in seed funding to accelerate development and global expansion.
