Full Renewal of Digital Signage Delivery System 'CastSign'

Arnetz Inc. (Headquarters: Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture; President & CEO: Teruaki Watanabe; hereinafter 'Arnetz'), a group company of FRONTEO Inc. (TSE Growth: 2158), has completely renewed the UI design of its digital signage delivery system 'CastSign' and launched a new help site.

The number of installation locations in the digital signage market is expanding year by year, primarily in retail, dining, and public facilities. Consequently, there is an increase in front-line scenarios where 'hundreds to thousands of devices are operated by a small number of people'. This renewal focuses on reducing the operational burden of such multi-location operations, and our internal verification confirms that operation time can be reduced by up to approximately 20% compared to before.

1. Background and Aims of the Renewal Since its launch in 2021, CastSign has been increasingly adopted as a delivery and management platform for multi-location signage. However, as the scale of deployments grew, users reported the following challenges: - As the number of devices increases, it takes time to find the desired device. - It is difficult to distinguish between individual devices and device groups. - There are UI elements, such as right-click actions, that are difficult to understand at first glance. - It is hard to find necessary information from the 115-page manual. With this renewal, we aim to address these voices directly and revamp the UI foundation to withstand future functional expansions.

2. Key Improvements In this renewal, we comprehensively implemented a UI revamp of the management screen and established a new help site, working to reduce the 'time spent hesitating over operations'.

### (1) New Home Screen ── Significantly reducing device search time We have created a new home screen, allowing users to search by device name and filter devices and device groups in a single step. Previously, it was necessary to scroll through a list of devices to find them, but now users can instantly access the target device even in environments with hundreds of units.

### (2) Improved Operability of Delivery Management Screen ── Towards an intuitive operation flow We made the following two improvements to the delivery management screen: - Expanded the display area of the content (video, still image, web page) setting screen to improve visibility at a glance. - Unified menu operations from right-clicks to buttons, realizing an intuitive path that even first-time users can navigate without hesitation.
