Intershop Expands Personalization Features with Autonomy Cartridge
Added personalization functionality results in more relevant and intuitive product offerings
San Francisco, Calif., September 21, 2000 - Intershop, one of the world's leading providers of electronic commerce applications and software solutions, and Autonomy Corporation plc, a leading developer of infrastructure software for the Web, today announced the availability of the Autonomy cartridge for Intershop enfinity.
The Autonomy cartridge for Intershop enfinity adds functionality to help businesses create a more compelling and convenient online shopping experience with personalized information that is tailored to the individual needs of the user. By analyzing and deriving the meaning from any piece of text, Autonomy's pattern recognition technology can automatically categorize and link similar information (for example product descriptions) to deliver highly customized shopping information to the customer.
Key features of the Autonomy cartridge for Intershop enfinity include the ability to recommend a range of products and services based on the automatic profiling of users' preferences, the automatic suggestion of recommended alternatives and a natural language search facility.
"To create a compelling shopping experience and rapid return on investment, sophisticated e-commerce solution must include powerful personalization," said Laura Mylls, vice president of product marketing at Intershop. "Autonomy's pattern recognition technology complements Intershop enfinity's Sell Anywhere capabilities and will help businesses serve customers better by delivering personalized content and adjusting their offering to customer preferences."
"We are excited about the integration of our personalization technology with Intershop enfinity," said Dominic Johnson, Marketing Director of Autonomy. "In today's competitive online shopping markets, customers need relevant, informative, personalized product information delivered automatically. By supporting industry standards such as Java and XML, the Autonomy cartridge for Intershop enfinity is transforming the online shopping experience."
The Autonomy cartridge for Intershop enfinity for Windows NT is available worldwide through Autonomy.
About Autonomy
Autonomy's technology powers large-scale, personalised systems to support the infrastructure of the Internet economy, across areas including knowledge management, enterprise portals, new media publishing and electronic commerce applications. Because of its ability to analyse any piece of text (independent of the document's language) and identify and rank the main ideas therein, Autonomy can automate a broad range of labour-intensive tasks. These range from categorising 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), Paris, Oslo, Stockholm, Sydney, Frankfurt, Munich, Milan, Brussels and Amsterdam. Among its 350 customers are Alcatel, British Aerospace, News Corp., Tesco, Burda, Elsevier, Lucent Technologies, Merrill Lynch, TF1, BBC, Reuters, The Royal Mail, the US Army, the US Navy and NASA. In addition, many software companies are licensing Autonomy's technology to add intelligence to their own products, in areas as diverse as online publishing, knowledge management, email routing, and document management. These include including Vignette, Hewlett-Packard, Brio, Sybase, OpenMarket, Intranet Solutions, Intraspect, Insight and Nexor. Autonomy also has collaborative partnership agreements with worldwide corporations including Compaq, Sun Microsystems and Intel.
