Jie Wu

Last week we announced the immediate availability of Kyndi Natural Language Search, a best-in-class search solution designed to help customers and employees find answers in text-based data at unmatched speed and relevancy. This blog post provides an overview of Kyndi's key capabilities and recommendations on how you can leverage Kyndi's solution to deliver tangible business results through a better search experience.

Unique capabilities

Exceptional natural language understanding Kyndi Natural Language Search employs a rich set of natural language understanding (NLU) techniques, including term and custom entity matches, grammar, lemmatization, morphological matches, typo recognition, and membership. Equipped with those cognitive capabilities, Kyndi allows users to ask questions in their own words instead of using predefined, rigid keywords, intelligently interprets the nuances of naturally spoken language, and gives back highly relevant, contextual answers in seconds.

Query resiliency Many AI-based search solutions are trained on a narrow set of predetermined questions and terms, so when a user asks the same question in a slightly different way, they may not get the same answers. Not with Kyndi. This is because Kyndi understands that variations in how a question is posed are all looking for similar information. With Kyndi’s ability to perform query resiliency, a user can ask a question in different ways and still receive the same results, leading to a seamless user experience and higher customer adoption.

Intent detection Kyndi lets you build natural language query rules that can automatically interpret basic and use case-specific intent of queries. Such exceptional comprehension allows Kyndi to quickly discover the most pertinent answers hidden in various documents, at the user’s first request. The automatic intent detection provides an expanded search experience for users by allowing them to ask questions in a form like “Who.. Where.. When, How much.. “. For example, Kyndi knows a “Who” question is likely looking for the name of a person or company, a “Where” is likely looking for a location, a “When” is looking for a time, etc. Understanding a user’s intent behind a question allows Kyndi to retrieve the most relevant results otherwise impossible to detect with current term-based search solutions.

Trusted, explainable results Unlike black box AI, Kyndi provides transparency and explanation in the answers it delivers, giving users high confidence in the results while enabling easy performance tuning. Kyndi’s explainable AI allows end-users to see search results in their original context, leaving nothing lost in translation. Most importantly, by providing token level explainability, developers and knowledge workers can tune and optimize results in just seconds to improve search efficacy - a process that can take weeks to months to do with other search solutions. 

No-code Environment Kyndi allows users of all skill levels to manage the set-up, language extension, testing, and benchmarking of semantically tuned, searchable content volumes without having to code. With Kyndi, users can dynamically extend their language model at runtime, adding industry and company specific verbiage without needing an expensive ML engineer. Unlike other search solutions which require users to set up the platform and tune the algorithm, Kyndi takes care of those tasks and more. Customers can rely on Kyndi for content curation, cleaning, annotation, model training, testing, and optimization, saving them significant time and expenses. 

Flexible and Faster Deployment You can run Kyndi in a multi-tenant environment managed by Kyndi, in a single-tenant VPC hosted by Kyndi, or by your own team. In contrast to other search solutions that can take months, or even years to deploy and configure, Kyndi can be up and running in as little as 3 weeks.
