Meet Parallax at the AI Agentic Conference with Bright Data, May 4 to 5.

Meet Parallax at the AI Agentic Conference with Bright Data, May 4 to 5. By Conor Landry The Parallax team is heading to the AI Agentic Conference on May 4 and 5, and Prx is going alongside its partners at Bright Data. If you're attending, come find Prx at the Bright Data booth. Prx'd love to say hi in person. What Prx is bringing. A few things Prx plan to share at the booth: * A look at PRX Vision in action. Its agentic competitive intelligence platform runs autonomous agents that map competitive landscapes, score market positions, and extract strategic signals from across the web. Prx'll walk through what it does, how it works, and where Prx think agentic intelligence is going next. * Live competitive scans. Bring your company name and Prx'll run a real time scan at the booth. You'll see what an agent driven intelligence workflow looks like end to end, no slides required. * Conversations about the hard parts. Agent reliability, signal quality, scaling research workflows, keeping data fresh: these are the problems Prx think about every day, and Prx'd love to compare notes with anyone tackling the same things. Thank you, Bright Data. None of this would happen without Bright Data. They've been a real partner: generous with their infrastructure, fast to support Prx through tricky edge cases, and consistently thoughtful about how they help builders ship. The agentic AI ecosystem moves only as fast as the data layer underneath it, and Bright Data is doing the foundational work that makes serious agent systems possible in production. Prx is grateful to be standing alongside them at the conference. Come find Prx. If you're at the AI Agentic Conference on May 4 or 5, stop by the Bright Data booth. Prx'll have demos running, plenty of time to chat, and a genuine interest in what you're building. Whether you're deep into building agents yourself, evaluating tools for your team, or just curious about where this is all heading, Prx'd love to meet you. Can't make it to the conference but want to talk anyway? Get in touch and Prx'll set something up. See you there. Ready to automate your competitive intelligence? PRX Vision identifies your competitors, scores your market position, and surfaces signals continuously.

Next generation platform for flexibility.

Next generation platform for flexibility. Elexon is building a new platform for growing the flexibility market Elexon is building a new digital platform to bring structure and clarity to Britain's fast-growing flexibility markets, as the system shifts towards a more decentralised and data-driven model. The platform will sit at the heart of the Flexibility Market Rules introduced last year, creating a single, authoritative source for how the market operates. It is designed to replace fragmented processes with a coordinated system where flexibility providers, system operators and other participants can access rules, submit data and demonstrate compliance in one place. That matters because flexibility is becoming critical to how the grid functions. As renewable generation increases and demand patterns shift, the system needs more participants able to adjust when and how they use or supply electricity. The challenge has been complexity, with multiple rule sets and opaque processes limiting participation. The new platform is intended to make things easier. Users will be able to navigate detailed technical requirements more easily, supported by AI tools that identify which rules apply to them and what actions are needed. At the same time, Elexon will gain full visibility of how the market is operating, from onboarding through to compliance and performance, with all rule changes tracked and controlled through a secure digital framework. Steven Gough, Head of Flexibility at Elexon, said: "Digitisation is central to how we deliver our role as market facilitator... this platform is a critical enabler of that ambition." The system is scheduled to go live in October. To deliver it, Elexon has appointed technology consultancy Parallax to design and build the platform, reflecting the scale and complexity of what is effectively becoming the operating system for Britain's flexibility market. Grab the opportunity to progress your Net Zero journey. The Big Zero Show 2026 is for end users responsible for reducing cost, carbon and energy and its mission is to educate and help them progress their Net Zero journey. It will run March 24th at The University of Chicago Booth School of Business.
