Natural Language Understanding

AppTek’s NLU technology seamlessly identifies valuable context and “meaning” from documents, recordings or conversations, and relates named entities, intent, modalities and objects together building a knowledge graph which evolves over time in order to extract valuable and actionable information for deeper contextual analysis.

Extract deeper insights from unstructured text with AppTek’s Natural Language Understanding Technology.


AppTek’s cutting-edge Natural Language Understanding (NLU) technology provides the tools to understand and comprehend what users are expressing and convert that meaning into a deeper computer processable subtext.  AppTek’s NLU technology empowers organizations across a wide field of business applications who want to dive further into the meaning of spoken, written or translated sentences across a broad range of languages.  With AppTek’s NLU technology, developers can identify named entities and objects along with an intent and its modality to deliver the appropriate response to a request or derive subsequent action based on a specific question.   Additionally, AppTek’s NLU technology can be utilized for sentiment analysis (social media or customer conversations), for automated reasoning and context management (chatbots and virtual agents), for text classification, voice-activation and content analysis with the overall goal to provide deeper insights inside virtually any cluster of text.  

Generate Deeper Insights

Identify and label unstructured customer conversations and feedback from a variety of channels including social media, call centers, emails and more; Analyze sentiment, trending expressions stories and more for actionable insights.

Analyze User Intent

Relate user intent (verb), user modality (e.g. conditional, affirmation) with objects (e.g. numeric counts, currency, named entities, dates ) and more to create user-centric applications or analyze customer inquiries and sentiment through large selections of text.

Develop Knowledge Graphs

AppTek’s NLU generates and updates knowledge graphs from discovered entities to build a knowledge context specific to your needs and assist in the categorization and classification of documents, across a broad range of domains.
