Turn information about your market into game-changing insights
Market Intelligence consists of monitoring and analyzing multiple sources of data regarding our industry (customers, competitors, suppliers, regulators) to convert them into digestible information and actionable insights about our business. Obviously, much of that data is unstructured content from news, forums, reviews and documents. Advanced text analytics allows us to distill deeper insights from these sources to minimize manual analysis and foster the discovery of groundbreaking information with the maximum guarantee of accuracy, volume and cost.
Text Analytics for Market Intelligence and Competitive Intelligence
Companies need to carry out Market Intelligence practices in order to survive and thrive. Market Intelligence is the process of collecting, analyzing and managing the market information needed to support strategic decision making.
Market information comes from multiple sources and most of it is unstructured. By collecting news, comments from social networks, forums, and review sites, patents and regulation, companies obtain the raw material to distill the insights they need.
However, processing that content requires more than basic text classification functions. Otherwise, analysts end up manually sifting through massive amounts of content in search of precise data that they can aggregate, merge and cross-reference to make decisions.
Deep text analytics allows us to identify occurrences of entities and concepts, categorize thematically, extract meaningful semantic relationships between topics, discover new emerging subjects, and summarize documents to make the most of that vast amount of content.
