SLA 2019 Sneak Peek:

SLA attendees will be the first to see this prototype!

Artificial Intelligence integration is coming soon—automatic
categorization capabilities using IBM’s Watson! Easily configurable to
categorize images or any text fields; creates authority terms based on
your preferred accuracy requirements. Use with newsfeeds, or remove your
backlog by quickly organizing old databases and making them discoverable.
