Avocor Validates Korbyt CMS for B-Series Commercial Displays

Avocor and Korbyt have formed a global partnership validating Korbyt's CMS to run directly on Avocor's B-Series displays, meaning operators already using Korbyt can add the hardware to their networks without switching content management platforms or bolting on external media players.

The Korbyt application installs directly on the B-Series' built-in Android 14 processor, which the companies say is backed by 8GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. That's a meaningful detail for anyone speccing out a fleet: it means no separate media player box is required to run Korbyt on these screens, cutting hardware cost and one more point of failure at each install.

Avocor launched the B-Series at ISE 2026 as its entry into the commercial digital signage market, a move away from its traditional base in collaboration and meeting-room displays. This partnership is the first major signage-specific software validation for that line, and it signals Avocor is trying to compete directly with established signage display vendors rather than treat digital signage as a side note to its interactive whiteboard business.

For operators, the pitch is straightforward: plug B-Series screens into an existing Korbyt deployment and manage them the same way as other displays on the network. The companies said joint customers have already shown interest in using the combination for manufacturing and supply-chain settings, specifically pushing real-time operational data to production floor screens. That's a more specialised use case than typical retail or hospitality signage, and it lines up with Korbyt's stated push into enterprise and industrial deployments.

Korbyt's platform also includes AI-assisted content scheduling tools and engagement analytics, including estimated views and dwell time, according to the companies. The announcement does not detail how those metrics are captured on the B-Series specifically, or whether the analytics require additional sensors or licensing beyond the base CMS install.

Dana Corey, global general manager at Avocor, said the goal has been to build relationships that make the CMS and display work as one system since the B-Series launched. Andrew Gildin, Korbyt's vice president of channel sales and revenue operations, framed the validation as giving customers a ready-to-deploy combination instead of requiring them to integrate separate display and software components themselves.

The deal adds to Korbyt's roster of validated display partners as the company chases larger enterprise contracts. Korbyt named Andrew Robson as CEO in May, with a mandate to scale the Korbyt Anywhere platform and grow the company's global enterprise business, so this partnership fits a broader pattern of Korbyt lining up hardware partners to support that expansion.

What the announcement does not say is pricing for the B-Series displays, availability timelines beyond the ISE 2026 launch, or which specific display sizes in the B-Series line have been validated for the integration.

Korbyt application runs directly on the displays’ Android 14 processor, allowing existing customers to add the B-Series to their digital signage estates without changing platforms.

Avocor and Korbyt have formed a global partnership covering integrated digital signage deployments across enterprise, manufacturing, hospitality, and retail environments.

The application can be installed directly on the displays and uses their integrated Android 14 processor, backed by 8GB of RAM and 32GB of storage.

Avocor introduced its B-Series at ISE 2026 as part of its expansion from collaboration displays into the commercial digital signage market.

Customers already using Korbyt can add B-Series displays to their existing networks without adopting a different CMS or external media player. The companies said joint customers have already expressed interest in using the combination for manufacturing and supply-chain applications, including the delivery of real-time operational data on production floors.

The Korbyt platform includes AI-supported tools for automating tasks such as content scheduling. It can also provide engagement data, including estimated views and dwell time.

“Since launching the B-Series at ISE, we’ve been committed to building relationships that enhance user experience, and working with Korbyt means our customers can expect a CMS platform that works as one with our displays,” said Dana Corey, global general manager at Avocor.

Andrew Gildin, vice president of channel sales and revenue operations at Korbyt, said the validation gives customers a ready-to-deploy combination rather than requiring them to integrate separate display and software components.

The agreement expands Korbyt’s network of display hardware partners as it targets larger enterprise deployments. As reported by invidis, Korbyt appointed Andrew Robson as CEO in May , tasking him with scaling the Korbyt Anywhere platform and expanding the company’s global enterprise business.
