True Knowledge

What Company Is Offering:
True Knowledge is an internet search company based in Cambridge, England.
Their technology addresses one of the fundamental problems in internet search: namely that computers (unlike humans) cannot understand the content of web pages. As a result, finding information in the early 21st century still involves a process of guessing keywords that may appear in an appropriate web page and hoping that a search engine retrieves a document with the desired information sufficiently near the top of the list as to be found reasonably quickly.

How It Works:
Simply asking a search engine for the desired information in the most natural way possible doesn't produce a direct response.

Their technology sidesteps this fundamental problem by providing a way for the world's knowledge to be represented in a form that computers can understand and process, and for ordinary internet users to be able to add to this knowledge base without having to understand how the knowledge is represented.

Because knowledge stored within our technology can be processed and understood by computers, direct and perfect answers to questions on any topic are now possible. Furthermore, their technology provides a place on the internet where computers and other automated systems can query the widest possible domain of knowledge and receive a response in a form they can process.
Unique Features:
A search engine-like consumer site which can answer questions, be used to add knowledge and also be used just like a conventional search engine.

An API product for computer-generated queries.
