Cognizer releases its Genius™ AI Platform
Engages with Leading Enterprises

June 15, 2021 – San Francisco, CA – Today, Cognizer Inc announced the release of its Genius™, a new type of enterprise AI to instantly tap into the collective intelligence contained within their documents, messages, files, and other unstructured content sources.

“Genius™ brings a unique approach to helping enterprises make use of the vital facts and details locked in in their document, email, project, collaboration, messaging and other system that store unstructured content.” said Jack Porter, founder and CEO of Cognizer. “Genius™ reads source content – including documents, messages, emails, web pages, files and notes within systems – to find, extract and graph-structure the facts contained within. The combination of natural language processing paired with graph technology in the Genius™ Platform is very novel and powerful.”

Cognizer is a partner with Box.com and has engaged with leading technology and life science companies as design partners for the Genius™ Platform to ensure it is performant, scalable and easily deployed.

Tom Gruber, Cognizer Board member and inventor of Siri added “Genius™ augments the intelligence of people and collaborates with workers to help them achieve their goals. Genius™ helps professionals make instant use of troves of facts buried in huge unstructured content repositories. Roughly 80-90% of all corporate information is unstructured and organizations need to structure it before it can be used to solve problems.”
