Kravos AI Addresses Engineering Bottlenecks with Zero-Infrastructure Platform for AI Agent Deployment

 


 Kravos AI has introduced a zero-infrastructure approach to AI agent deployment, aimed at solving the severe engineering bottlenecks that frequently stall organizational AI initiatives. By eliminating the complex manual setup and maintenance of underlying software infrastructure, Kravos AI enables businesses to transition from initial concept to production-ready deployments in minutes rather than months.

Overcoming the Custom Coding Bottleneck

Building bespoke AI agents in-house traditionally presents a major technical hurdle for software development teams. Backend engineers are typically required to architect complex data pipelines, configure and tune vector databases, establish state management, handle multi-API orchestration, and maintain cloud servers alongside fallback logic. This infrastructure workload frequently ties up high-value engineering talent for months on basic maintenance tasks rather than core business logic.

Kravos AI resolves this friction by delivering a platform that completely abstracts the backend infrastructure requirements. The zero-infrastructure architecture manages all fundamental data hosting, vector indexing, and orchestration layers automatically, allowing teams to skip weeks of foundational coding.

Empowering Engineers and Non-Technical Operators

The Kravos AI platform allows both backend engineers and non-technical business operators to seamlessly configure and deploy grounded agents. Users can upload primary data sources, assign specific functional capabilities, and define execution rules without writing complex infrastructure code. Grounding and context resolution are performed natively within the platform.

By unifying agent creation into a streamlined workflow, cross-functional teams can iterate rapidly. Business units can update domain context and agent tasks independently, while engineering teams avoid the ongoing maintenance burden of managing custom-built backend scripts.

Accelerating Product Delivery and Efficiency

Removing the infrastructure barrier provides immediate advantages in time-to-market and operational resource allocation. Organizations using Kravos AI can deploy intelligent agent solutions faster, lower development overhead, and focus engineering hours on high-impact internal projects.

Filipino TikTok Affiliates Are Landing Their First Brand Campaigns on ShopSlayer


 ShopSlayer, an AI-powered TikTok Shop affiliate platform, has passed 5,300 affiliates and 100 brand campaigns four months after launching in July 2026. Brands including Human Nature, BYS, Wellspring and QUICKFX have run campaigns on the platform, and for many of its affiliates, a ShopSlayer campaign was the first brand campaign they had ever been accepted into.

ShopSlayer matches TikTok Shop brands with affiliates who sell. A brand posts a campaign brief with the product, the free sample and the commission rate. Affiliates opt in, receive the sample, post videos on TikTok and earn commission on every sale made through TikTok Shop.

The platform has launched more than 100 brand campaigns since July, with the largest coming from Human Nature, BYS, Wellspring and QUICKFX. Campaigns have filled with affiliates in as fast as three days, and new campaigns open on the platform every week.

"Every affiliate on ShopSlayer can see which brands are running campaigns right now and opt in the same day," said Bianca Cruz Azurin, co-founder of ShopSlayer. "Most of them had never been accepted into a brand campaign before. Getting the first one, and subsequently their first payout, is what turns someone who posts on TikTok into an affiliate. That is what the platform is for."

How to become a TikTok affiliate in the Philippines

To become a TikTok affiliate in the Philippines, you need to be at least 18, have a TikTok account in good standing and be approved for TikTok Shop's affiliate program. TikTok sets a minimum follower count that varies by market and changes over time. Once approved, you can tag products in your videos and LIVE streams and earn a commission on each sale.

ShopSlayer sits on top of that program. Approved affiliates of any follower count can join free at shopslayer.ai, browse the brand campaigns that are open right now and opt in to the briefs that fit their content.

This is how it works:

1) Get approved as a TikTok Shop affiliate. Create a free ShopSlayer affiliate account at shopslayer.ai.
2) Set up your profile so brands can see your niche and past videos.
3) Browse open campaigns and opt in to the briefs that match your content.
4) Receive the free sample, post within the brief's timeline and earn commission on every sale through your TikTok Shop link.

"TikTok is the best place right now for a brand to work with hundreds of affiliates at once, because the sample request, the video creation, and the checkout all happen in one app," said Miggy Azurin, co-founder of ShopSlayer. "We're building for the long haul. The more affiliates who know how to sell, the better it works for brands, so the platform has to keep campaigns open for people who are just starting."

How to get your first campaign on TikTok

The fastest way to get your first brand campaign on TikTok is to join a platform where brands are already running campaigns open to affiliates of any size, instead of pitching brands one by one. On ShopSlayer, more than 100 campaigns have opened since July 2026. Each brief lists the product, the sample and the commission up front, and affiliates who match the brief can opt in without a prior track record.

How to earn your first commission on TikTok

You earn a TikTok affiliate commission when a viewer buys a product through the product link tagged in your video or LIVE. The brand sets the commission rate per product, and TikTok Shop pays it out under its affiliate program.

To earn a first commission faster: work from a brief and a real sample so the video shows the product honestly; post several videos per product instead of one; put the hook in the first two seconds; and check which videos produce orders in TikTok's affiliate dashboard, then make more of those.

Miriam College, C&E ALS Partner to Expand Access to Skills-Based Learning Through Micro-Credentials

  

As demand grows for flexible, skills-focused education, Miriam College and C&E Adaptive Learning Solutions (C&E ALS) are collaborating to expand access to learning opportunities through micro-credentials, offering learners additional pathways to develop competencies alongside their academic and professional pursuits.

The partnership was formalized through a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) signed on October 22, 2026, bringing together Miriam College’s academic expertise and C&E ALS’s capabilities in educational content development, production, and digital distribution.

Under the agreement, Miriam College will develop course-related manuscripts and syllabi, while C&E ALS will oversee the design, layout, and editing of learning materials for publication and distribution via AsCEnd, an online learning platform developed by C&E ALS.

Micro-credentials offer learners additional opportunities to acquire new skills and strengthen existing competencies beyond conventional degree programs. These shorter, skills-focused courses complement traditional degree pathways, allowing individuals to pursue targeted learning alongside their existing academic or professional commitments. The flexible structure of micro-credentials lets learners study at their pace and on their own schedule, reinforcing the importance of continuous learning and empowering them to adapt to the ever-evolving demands of the workforce.

For higher education institutions, micro-credentials also present opportunities to expand their academic offerings to new learner segments, including working professionals seeking to upskill or reskill in response to changing industry requirements. 

Highlighting the value of micro-credentials, C&E ALS CEO John Emyl Eugenio said:

“Micro-credentials allow institutions to build on their academic strengths and offer focused, flexible learning experiences that respond to the needs of students, working professionals, and lifelong learners.”

In addition to developing workforce-relevant skills, micro-credentials may also help learners pursue further academic qualifications. Depending on institutional policies and assessment requirements, certain micro-credentials may be recognized for academic credit, allowing learners to apply their acquired knowledge and competencies toward eligible degree or diploma programs. 

This approach offers learners greater flexibility in pursuing educational goals, allowing them to build previously acquired knowledge and competencies while exploring opportunities for further study.

For C&E ALS and Miriam College, the partnership aims to broaden learning opportunities for students, working professionals, and lifelong learners from diverse backgrounds. By combining Miriam College’s academic expertise with C&E ALS’ digital learning solutions and services, the partnership aims to expand access to flexible, personalized learning opportunities that equip individuals with relevant skills and support their continued academic and professional growth.
