Gryphon Launches Real-Time Compliance Tool on Genesys AppFoundry

Boston – September 29, 2026 -- Gryphon has released Gryphon ONE on the Genesys Cloud AppFoundry, a real-time compliance layer that lets enterprises recover 35%-45% of their contactable customer universe by preventing over-suppression in outbound dialing campaigns.

Gryphon ONE screens calls against TCPA, TSR and Do Not Call rules before dialing occurs

The integration evaluates automated outbound dialing against the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, the Telemarketing Sales Rule, Do Not Call registries and state-specific standards in real time. Enterprises using highly regulated data sets can now operationalize governance, risk and compliance directly within Genesys Cloud outbound workflows, removing manual handoffs between compliance teams and campaign launch.

LUNGevity Commits $2M to Two AI-Driven Lung Nodule Diagnostic Trials

Washington, D.C. – September 29, 2026 -- LUNGevity Foundation has committed $2 million to fund two three-year clinical research projects aimed at improving the diagnosis of indeterminate pulmonary nodules (IPNs), a condition affecting more than 1.5 million Americans annually after routine chest CT scans.

The funding, awarded through the 2026 RTFCCR/LUNGevity Early Detection Award in partnership with the Rising Tide Foundation for Clinical Cancer Research (RTFCCR), targets a diagnostic gap that currently forces many patients into unnecessary invasive procedures or prolonged uncertainty when non-invasive tools fail to determine whether a lung nodule is benign or malignant.
