Netbase: Relaunches Content Intelligence Platform
March 22, 2009
Netbase (Research Smarter, Faster) at http://www.netbase.com/ is relaunching its Content Intelligence search platform. You could only get it through illumin8, http://www.illumin8.com/overview_whatis.php, a semantic search tool currently used by large R&D corporations, but Netbase is expanding its focus and marketing.
Netbase’s description: “Netbase Research Engine uses state-of-the-art text analytics technology to search, extract and summarize information with rich interrelationships from billions of business-relevant web sites and scientific documents.” illumin8 was specifically designed to help knowledge workers with their technology data and knowledge searches. Now it’s expanding from that highly specialized R&D focus to include other business such as market research, company news, and government and military concerns. This all means the search platform will now be available to more interested customers than big research giants like P&G or 3M.
