Cortical.io

Cortical.io provides natural language understanding software for large organisations. Its Retina technology works out the meaning of text so that searching and reviewing documents takes less manual effort.

The approach is modelled on how the brain processes information. It can be trained without supervision in the specialist vocabulary of a business area, and works in several languages.

• Information extraction — pulling key facts out of any kind of text data.
• Meaning-based filtering — sorting very large volumes of unstructured text.
• Semantic search — searching millions of documents across languages.

• Monitoring and analysis — continuous review of text sources.
