Information Intelligence Toolset

Finding the technology you need shouldn't be the hard part

Just take me to the Demo

Tech-Scout is a flexible and scaleable information intelligence toolset that allows you discover, organize and use the information you're interested without the wasted time, uncertainty and hassle of traditional general-purpose search engines or unwieldy and outmoded databases.

Tech-Scout can be deployed as:
  • An Information Intelligence Research Tool
  • An Expert Locator to facilitate collaboration
  • A Knowledge Management System
  • A dynamically updated and maintained Database Front-end

We arrange your data to suit your needs

We do this by organizing the data you care about in a way (or ways) that makes sense to you via flexible, powerful and easy-to-understand taxonomies and ontologies (that's geek-speak for ways of automatically sorting out information). Tech-Scout's powerful and relentless spiders can scour the web and beyond to present analysts, researchers, engineers and technology-focused recruiters with comprehensive and accessible technical information from a variety of sources.

These sources can include:
  • government funded research programs (like Small Business Innovation Research awards);
  • US and world patents;
  • A wide variety of technology news sources and;
  • Proceedings, publications and presentations from conference and symposia in your organizations area of interest.

One size really doesn't fit anyone all that well

What Tech-Scout isn't is a shrink-wrapped, one-size-fits-all application. By listening to researchers and technologists we've found that these type of solutions don't truly fit anyone. In fact they only make what we believe should be an easy thing and fun thing --finding the answers you need--difficult, time consuming and aggravating. Let us mold Tech-Scout to fit you.

Every age of discovery needs a scout

SBIRscout gives you quick access to information on over 40,000 SBIR grants ranging over the life of the program -- including the most current awards. We've loosed our spiders with instructions to constantly to a return new data

SBIRscout provides easy answers to the tough questions like:
  • Who was awarded SBIRs that fit your interests?
  • What SBIRs have been awarded related to concepts that matter to you?
  • Where are the companies that are participating in SBIRs located?
  • When were they awarded?
  • How Much SBIR activity is there in an area of interest?

Driven by CorMine Intelligent Data's concept-based information intelligence tool set and designed to support information search and retrieval in large, technically dense data stores, SBIRscout is an ideal solution for anyone who depends upon accurate and accessible SBIR-related intelligence.

SBIRscout's powerful control sets allow users to define search queries by taxonomies (internally consistent conceptual categories), entities (research institutions, firms, principal investigators, etc ) and natural language searches. all in any combination any combination.

The advantage of our Dynamic Knowledge Bases is that the classification system they create are based, not on matching keywords, but by matching concepts. The system can identify these concepts however they might be framed in an individual document or expressed by a particular author and, via the analytical tools that are part of the system, uncover implicit linking concepts within documents in the corpus.
