How does the ARC system correct time domain issues?

One can read this on the website:

IK Multimedia wrote:ARC System neatly solves all these problems with a unique and innovative DAW (Digital Audio Workstation,) based solution that works both in the frequency and time domain and is not affected by any of the drawbacks of other types of correction systems.


How exactly does it "solve all the time domain problems"? Does it delay parts of the signal? How can this be accurate since it doesn't know which monitors you're using, what are the crossover frequencies and other particular details that are inherent to the monitors and the room? If it actually delays parts of the signal, how much latency does this add?

Why is there no explanation whatsoever on how is this achieved? Without further details this sounds a bit sketchy to me, I'd love to hear more about this from someone who knows how the system works.

You can demo ARC 3 and let the results speak for themselves (since ARC 3 will use non-ARC measurement microphones). IK uses proprietary technology in almost every single product so the creators of this tech aren't likely to open the hood fully to reveal all of their secrets.
