Inpixon, a leading indoor data company that delivers Indoor Intelligence™ solutions, today announced an agreement with The CXApp whereby the parties will collaborate and jointly pursue sales and marketing opportunities around the companies’ respective and complementary digital contact tracing and social distancing solutions.
Businesses face numerous workplace reentry challenges. While organizations would ideally like to bring employees back into the office swiftly, they must balance that desire with concrete measures that help ensure the health and safety of employees and visitors. Inpixon and The CXApp can provide businesses enterprise-specific solutions to address safety within the confines of their private buildings.

Social Distancing
Inpixon and The CXApp utilize synergistic social distancing approaches — unique in methodology but common in objective. The CXApp’s Social Distancing Alerts system is a peer-to-peer approach that uses the smartphone as both a Bluetooth beacon and a receiver to deliver real-time notifications via an app to employees when they are too near one another for a period of time. Inpixon utilizes Wi-Fi and other radio frequency signals, develops and reports customer-defined zone health scores to management, and does not require an app to be installed on the phone. Inpixon reports on building zone health by evaluating factors such as occupancy level (e.g., number of devices in a given area) and potential crowding (e.g., devices per square foot) within a particular zone.
Contact Tracing
By analyzing historical wireless device locations, Inpixon’s Indoor Intelligence platform can provide data to assist officials and employers in identifying which zones within an employer’s premises a self-identified exposed individual may have traveled over a specified period of time, how long the individual may have stayed within a particular zone, and proximity to others within the same zone. This same tool can also assist organizations in identifying areas for prioritized cleaning after being notified that an exposed individual was on premises. The CXApp utilizes its Social Distancing Alerts to securely log flagged device-to-device proximities for contact tracing purposes, without using specific location in the building as a factor. Using the two methodologies together can provide unique insights unavailable to any single solution.

“It’s important for businesses to leverage their indoor data to help with social distancing, cleaning routines and contact tracing, not only for employee safety but also to help enforce compliance with governmental guidelines or mandates,” commented Nadir Ali, CEO of Inpixon. “Both Inpixon and The CXApp are solution providers within Lenovo’s ThinkIoT Back to Work Solutions ecosystem, and as such, we look forward to working closely with The CXApp on multiple fronts.”
“When it comes to fighting this pandemic, we believe two tools are better than one,” commented Leon Papkoff, The CXApp CEO and Chief Strategist. “Organizations can use Inpixon in parallel with The CXApp today to create visibility and help drive healthy behaviors in the workforce. The complimentary solutions provide two distinct information sources that can arm employers with unique capabilities and intelligence around social distancing and contact tracing to proactively address workplace safety.”
