synergenceSyngence Corporation Announces Partnership with kCura
DALLAS, TX and SEATTLE, WA - February 05, 2008 — Syngence Corporation, an industry leader in e-discovery and content analytics solutions, today announced that kCura Corporation, a software company providing the kCura™ Relativity Web-based discovery review platform, will integrate Syngence Corporation's Synthetix Processing Suite (SPS™) with Relativity.
Relativity is a Web-based litigation support platform designed for simple and complex litigation. A feature-rich, online review application, Relativity provides users with image and native file review, powerful searching, full Unicode compliance, diverse coding options, strong work-flow management tools, flexible security options, and full-production capabilities, all in a highly scalable solution. SPS is an integrated set of powerful document management, workflow, and search and navigation software applications that work in conjunction with leading discovery review platforms to help organize and review unstructured data, group near-duplicate records and enable intuitive, precise searching.
SPS includes three powerful software applications, including SynthetixND™, which uses a proprietary linguistic pattern-matching technology that allows users to analyze near-duplicate documents that exist in vast numbers within any data collection, reducing review time and cost while increasing the accuracy of privilege or responsiveness reviews.
The first phase in the multi-phase integration will integrate Synthetix search capability into Relativity. Due to Relativity's extensible architecture and Syngence's prior experience in integrating Synthetix with other platforms, the first phase is expected to be complete for demonstration at LegalTech New York, the industry's premier trade conference in early February. Subsequent phases will involve the integration of the entire SPS package so that creating and loading SPS outputs will be transparent to the end user.
"We have seen increasing demand to integrate our SPS capabilities with Relativity, resulting in faster, easier discovery collections while lowering overall search costs," said Randall D. Miles, Syngence chief executive officer. "We are pleased to partner with kCura to market a platform incorporating faster and more accurate review of e-discovery document collections."
In addition to SynthetixND, SPS includes: Synthetix Search®, which compares the linguistic patterns of selected text with every page in a document collection and returns results with ranked relevancy; and Syndex™ Auto-Coding, which automatically creates abstract document summaries containing author, recipient, date, subject and document type as well as designated key terms.
Using Synthetix Search, users can identify and monitor selected or hypothetical text within millions of pages of structured and unstructured data. Whether users engage Synthetix Search for one-time use or to continuously monitor a company's data in real-time, queries produce thorough results that are more immune to misspellings, OCR errors and other variances.
Syngence is currently attending LegalTech New York and more information can be found by visiting its booth, number 112/114.
