Let’s dig less yet discover more

What if you could discover deeper insights buried inside your business documents with less effort in a fraction of the time? With IBM Watson® Discovery, you can boost the productivity of knowledge workers by automating the discovery of information and insights with advanced Natural Language Processing and Understanding. That means faster business results, satisfied customers and happier employees. We deliver truly enterprise-grade, trusted, scalable and easy-to-use Natural Language AI, powered by custom NLP models and Large Language Models (LLMs) from IBM Research.

Features

• **Understands your document structure: **Smart Document Understanding (SDU) is a visual machine learning tool that enables users to label text so that the tool builds an understanding of critical components inside your enterprise documents, such as headers, tables and more. Once you annotate a few pages of your documents, SDU can teach itself the rest, retrieving answers and information only from relevant content.
• **Convert images of text into insights: **IBM’s new OCR provides higher character accuracy and detection recall giving you greater extraction of key insights from documents in sub-optimal conditions such as irregular fonts, insufficient resolution, bad lighting from mobile capture and even variety of colors and backgrounds. 
• **Navigate through your data to discover insights: **Traditional enterprise search engines perform keyword searches and provide end-users with links to documentation. But with Watson Discovery, you move beyond keyword search to navigate confidently through your documents using faceted search to find the relevant information needed. The design of this platform ensures that the information you need is easily accessible and can push to downstream automation via JSON output. 
• **Offers NLP enrichments: **The platform’s out-of-the-box NLP enrichments include entity extraction, sentiment analysis, emotion analysis, keyword extractions, category classification, concept tagging and more. 
• **Leverages large language models (LLMs): **IBM Watson Discovery uses foundation models from Watson Natural Language Processing (NLP) for advanced processing and understanding of text, enabling the accurate extraction of information and insights from business documents, accelerating processes and generating insights. 
• **Provides user friendly tooling: **Intuitive tooling empowers your subject-matter experts to teach IBM Watson® the language of your industry. Get started with no previous programming or coding skills required.
• **Extract domain-specific entities: **Define custom entity types and annotate entity mentions to iteratively train a supervised entity recognition model with active learning techniques to accelerate training. 

Benefits

• **Accelerate decisions & processes: **An insurance client reduced the time spent reading and analyzing text data by 90%.
• **Generate revenue: **A law firm gained 4X better productivity and earned 30% more revenue.
• **Reduce costs: **An oil and gas company reached over USD 10 million in savings.
