Intraspect And Autonomy Partner To Build The Next Generation Of Collaborative Knowledge Portals

Strategic technology and marketing agreement will help customers develop, deploy and manage collaborative knowledge portals

San Francisco, Calif. (June 28, 1999) - Autonomy and Intraspect today announced that they will join forces to build and market the next generation of collaborative knowledge portals. By taking advantage of Autonomy's powerful technology, Intraspect customers will be able to expedite the deployment of collaborative knowledge portals, while extracting maximum value from the large volumes of information in their corporate reservoirs and the Web.

"Autonomy has the only technology capable of automatically identifying the main ideas in any piece of text," said Intraspect CEO Jim Pflaging. "That means it can add intelligence to our software and help our customers automate some of the labor and cost intensive tasks associated with implementing a collaborative knowledge portal," Pflaging added. "Customers will be able to completely automate the categorization, tagging, hypertext linking and personalization of vast volumes of internal and external information. This will be extremely powerful when combined with Intraspect's core collaborative knowledge management services."

According to Autonomy CEO Mike Lynch, Intraspect was one of the early thought leaders in knowledge management. "Intraspect's sophisticated applications help companies organize, share and reuse a corporation's most valuable asset, the intellectual capital of its employees," said Lynch. "Although a lot has been written about the power of datamining technologies in helping companies gain a competitive advantage, these technologies only work with information that has been stored in highly structured databases. Thanks to Autonomy's technology, Intraspect customers will now be able to automatically extract the same kind of powerful insights from information in less structured formats, such as the plain prose found in emails, word processing documents, presentation programs and Web pages."

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, Washington, DC 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 Intraspect, Verge, Aenied, Global Recall, Insight and Nexor. On July 10, 1998, the company went public on the EASDAQ exchange.

About Intraspect:
