Autonomy licenses its core technology to leading software vendors

Autonomy's Software Developers Kit (SDK) Helps Companies Add Intelligence to Any Software Application Involving Text

San Francisco, Calif. (June 21, 1999) - Autonomy today announced that it will license its core technology to software vendors interested in adding intelligence to their business solutions. This SDK will allow vendors to easily integrate Autonomy's technology and better serve customers in enterprise portal, document management, email routing, enterprise resource management, customer relationship management, online publishing, marketing and sales automation and knowledge management markets.

Because Autonomy's technology can automatically identify the main ideas in any document, it can easily automate a broad range of functions for any software application involving text. These functions range from sorting information by topic, to profiling users based on the information they read or write, to inserting hypertext links to related information, to routing information to those most likely to be interested. According to Autonomy CEO Mike Lynch, only Autonomy has a technology capable of analyzing a piece of text (in any language), and extracting and ranking the main ideas. "Software developers need their applications to deliver actionable information to the appropriate people," said Lynch. "By licensing our technology, vendors can differentiate themselves by quickly connecting people with the information they need." Among the companies already using Autonomy's software developers kit (SDK) to build more advanced applications are Verge, Aenied, Global Recall, Insight and Nexor.

Software vendors interested in licensing Autonomy's core technology may contact Jon Wilks via email, jonw@autonomy.com, or telephone, 415/243-9955.

About Autonomy

Autonomy's technology powers large-scale, personalized systems for knowledge management, enterprise portals, new media publishing and electronic commerce. Because of its ability to analyze any piece of text (independent of the document's language) and identify and rank the main ideas, Autonomy can automate a broad range of labor intensive tasks. These range from categorizing information by subject matter, to inserting hypertext links to related material, to profiling users based on the ideas in the text they read or write, to delivering information to those most likely to be interested. Autonomy was founded in 1996 and has offices in San Francisco, New York, Atlanta and Boston, in the United States as well as in Cambridge, England and Oslo, Norway.

Among its 100-plus customers are Alcatel, Associated Press, Barclays Bank, British Aerospace, Clorox, News Corp., Procter & Gamble, Lucent Technologies, Merrill Lynch, SF Gate, Shell International, Semi-tech, The Royal Mail and Xoom.com. In addition, several software companies are licensing Autonomy's technology to add intelligence to their knowledge management, email routing and document management applications, including Verge, Aenied, Global Recall, Insight and Nexor.
