XpresSpa Debuts Clockwork Robotic Manicures at Miami International Airport
20 July 2023 - 10:00PM
XWELL, Inc. (Nasdaq: XWEL) ("XWELL" or the "Company"), an authority
in health and wellness solutions for people on the go, in
partnership with Clockwork, the pioneer in robotics for the beauty
industry, today launched the use of Clockwork’s next generation,
fully autonomous, AI-powered express manicure in the XpresSpa®
location at Miami International Airport (MIA) in Miami, Florida.
MIA’s North Terminal, Concourse D is the second airport location in
the world to feature robot manicures following the debut at John F.
Kennedy International Airport’s Terminal 4 in March 2023.
“As the first in the world to introduce this type of technology
in the airport setting, we’re pleased to announce the launch of our
second location,” said XWELL Chief Executive Officer Scott Milford.
“With Clockwork, we have unveiled a new option for people on the go
to enjoy a manicure. It is state-of-the-art and efficient, and just
one way XWELL is enhancing its spa services to meet the needs of
clients on their journeys.”
The Clockwork MiNiCURE is an express manicure service that
delivers high-quality polish color through automation. Its latest
version features a fully autonomous robot that uses proprietary
artificial intelligence with 3D technology to paint nails
effectively within minutes. An easy-to-use touchscreen guides
travelers through the Clockwork experience, with an intuitive live
support feature available any time help is needed. Additionally,
the Clockwork MiNiCURE experience includes automated nail polish
removal as well as a free polish remover pot to take home.
“Bringing Clockwork’s robot manicures to XpresSpa MIA through
our partnership with XWELL is an exciting milestone. As a hub for
layovers to popular vacation destinations, MIA is an ideal location
for travelers to get a fresh coat of polish before takeoff. This
new location marks the continued success of our partnership with
XWELL to transform and innovate services for travelers,” said
Clockwork Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Renuka Apte.
XWELL will launch up to five of Clockwork’s AI-powered robots
during the initial launch phase with the intent to deploy as many
as 34 units across the company’s portfolio of 34 spa locations.
