CHICAGO, July 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Flat, the leading white-label platform for home service professionals, and Whisker Labs, creator of Ting Insights, have announced a strategic partnership that brings precise, real-time power outage intelligence directly into the Flat platform. This collaboration delivers critical power status alerts to homeowners while enabling their service providers to engage at high-impact moments.
