About Discover Technologies

Discover Technologies provides new and innovative ways to automatically connect people with highly relevant information, and people of interest, in an age of information overload. All too often, corporate and government knowledge workers are spending way too much time looking for supporting information, or locating associates with whom they can collaborate, and too little time actually applying their specialized talents to the task at hand. The result is lowered productivity, higher costs, and a reduced quality of service. The more information you have, the greater the number of knowledge workers, the bigger the problem and the greater the cost.

Our technologies allow the user experience to be shaped and enhanced automatically based on the user’s interaction with their existing automated systems, without requiring the creation and maintenance of manual user profile information. Our patent pending technology gains an understanding of each and every user’s interests and expertise by examining the content they create and consume. When a user creates new documents on a given subject, or has a live messaging session addressing a specific topic, our technology captures, understands, and catalogs the subject matter and associates it with that user. As new information is encountered that is highly relevant, we can deliver it to the user without them having to ‘search’ for it. We can introduce users to others that have highly relevant profiles, in order to facilitate collaboration using commonly understood social networking techniques. In short, users spend much less time searching and much more time doing the work for which they are uniquely qualified.

Discover Technologies’ approach is truly unique, in that we do not require the manual creation of databases or MySites or other repositories to understand the needs of each and every user. We continuously analyze the content they dwell in, and establish an understanding of the users’ interests based on that content. Once this user understanding is gained, and this happens very quickly, then the proactive delivery of information and ‘people’ is enabled and the cost savings and quality benefits are realized.
