ANTs Software and Computer Intelligence Group Team to Provide High-Performance Data Management Solutions for Financial Services

  Specialized Trading Industry Management and Systems Consultancy Joins ANTs
                          Software Alliance Program

    BURLINGAME, Calif., May 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ANTs software, inc.
(OTC Bulletin Board: ANTS), a developer of high-performance SQL database
management systems, today announced that Computer Intelligence Group, Inc., a
management and systems consultancy company focused on trading systems, risk
management and compliance services, has joined the ANTs Software Alliance
Program (ASAP) to jointly develop solutions targeted at the financial services
industry.  As an ASAP partner, Computer Intelligence Group will develop,
market, and demonstrate solutions built for the ANTs Data Server, enabling
customers to boost application performance by 5 to 15 times in many cases and
achieve a total cost of ownership potentially 60 to 90 percent less than
existing solutions.
    Since 1984, Computer Intelligence Group, Inc. has combined industry and
technical knowledge to develop customized, cost efficient solutions that cover
all aspects of the trading environment from sales and trading through
clearance and settlement.  Because of the ANTs Data Server's standards
compliance and compatibility with Oracle, Microsoft and Sybase stored
procedures, CIG can quickly leverage its existing database expertise to
deliver new solutions with significant potential savings.
    "Securities firms continually push the performance envelope of IT systems
supporting revenue generating transactions, the core of our expertise," said
CIG Founder and President, Samuel B. Galeota. "So we approached ANTs to see if
its technology would be of value to our clients.  After evaluating the ANTs
Data Server, we have concluded that its combination of performance and
compatibility with the databases in use on Wall Street today, can be of
significant benefit to our clients."
    Computer Intelligence Group (CIG) has developed three focus areas:
management consultancy, systems implementation and support, and specialized
software development. Each of these areas evolved from the need to provide a
complete offering of professional services capable of meeting the disparate
and changing global infrastructural requirements of financial services firms.
CIG clients include Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, Credit Suisse First Boston,
Societe Generale, Mizuho Trust & Banking, and Datek.
    "From day one we have targeted the financial services industry," said
ANTs' chief executive officer, Boyd Pearce. "It is comprised of
performance-hungry, IT-savvy enterprises whose applications have outgrown
existing database solutions. The lock-free architecture of the ANTs Data
Server can provide the scalability and real-time response needed in straight
through processing to capitalize on rapid market movements where millions of
dollars are at stake with each trade. CIG is the perfect partner to introduce
our product to Wall Street trading firms.  We are extremely pleased to have
this alliance in place."
