Autonomy Delivers Agentware i3™ Product Line PALO ALTO, CA
August 5, 1997 - Autonomy, Inc., a leading provider of solutions for the intelligent management of unstructured content in online environments, today officially released its Agentware i3™ line of products. Agentware i3 is a complete range of products that provide end-to-end solutions to content aggregators, content publishers and enterprises for the intelligent management, delivery and retrieval of online content such as HTML, E-mails, chat, content archives and news feeds. Autonomy's Agentware i3 product line is unique in that its intelligent content management solutions span the entire content distribution process, from automating the aggregation and organization of multi-source, high volume content domains to understanding user interests for the delivery of truly targeted and personalized content. "The combination of the personal computer and the Internet has resulted in unprecedented growth in the volume of digital unstructured content," says Dr. Michael Lynch, Autonomy's Founder and CEO. "The difficulty is in managing that content so the right information gets to the right people, that's when content becomes truly valuable. The Agentware i3 product line is a unique and powerful content management approach which solves that problem."
Autonomy's Agentware i3 product line is already in use in mission-critical applications by major customers across the United States and Europe to solve their content management needs. News Corporation is using Agentware i3 to automate the daily aggregation and publishing of high volumes of online content, from both text and live news feeds, saving countless hours of manual categorization, tagging and cross-linking. Virgin Interactive is using Agentware i3 products to automate the creation of personalized Internet content channels for each customer, enabling Virgin to bring the best of the Internet to each user with minimal editorial effort. Within the enterprise, Barclays Bank is using Agentware i3 to automate the distribution of critical data across its Intranet, ensuring that the right people are getting critical information on a timely basis, without wasting time surfing the Internet.
Agentware i3 Technology
Agentware i3 is based on a unique combination of pattern matching and neural network methodologies, Autonomy's core APCM™ (Adaptive Probabilistic Concept Modeling) technology easily understands user interests and the context and concepts within unstructured digital content. This ability to identify patterns and inter-relations in large amounts of information and match these patterns with user interests is the key value proposition Agentware i3 provides to customers. The Agentware i3 products employ APCM to create Concept Agents™ that understand user interests and use that understanding to retrieve relevant content from static or live sources. Concept Agents are intelligent in that they learn and adapt along with a user's changing interests. Since APCM is not a linguistically dependent technology, Agentware i3 products and Concept Agents perform equally well with content in any language. Autonomy Agentware i3 Content Server™At the core of the Agentware i3 Product Line is the Agentware i3 Content Server. It automates the back-end publishing process by automatically aggregating, organizing and indexing high volumes of both static and live content from multiple sources.
Content providers in the enterprise or commercial online environment experience the following benefits:
Removes need for manual content categorization; automates channel creation
Removes need for manual content hyperlinking; provides "auto-suggest" ability
Implicitly understands and tracks user psychographic interests
Organizes high volumes of content from multiple sources, both live and static
Provides a full range of content indexing, searching and retrieval options,
