Unlocking Value from Unstructured Text
Experts estimate that 90% of digital data generated daily is unstructured. Unlocking value from this overwhelming volume requires surfacing precise, relevant information — fast.
DataScava is an advanced unstructured text mining solution that precisely pinpoints high-quality data with user-controlled business and domain language. It evolved from TalentBrowser, where we patented deterministic methods to structure, measure, filter, and curate nonlinear content — without requiring training data or manual labeling.
By enabling you to harness your expertise — working standalone or with other solutions, DataScava can help you:
- Structure, measure, filter, match, route, sort, and rank raw text automatically
- Feed explainable, auditable outputs into AI, LLMs, ML, RPA, BI, Research, TA, and BAU applications
- Create domain-specific data pipelines upstream, audit and measure results downstream
- Get structured, high-quality datasets and output you can act on
- Stay in control with results you can see, refine, and trust
How It Works
DataScava applies three complementary methodologies that focus on your business language and expertise, not generic language models:
DSIndex | Domain-Specific Language Processing (DSLP)
- Structures and measures user-defined key terms exactly — with no disambiguation
- Generates structured numeric metadata at the file level for efficient retrieval and downstream use
- Outputs metadata for use in other solutions and BI tools (Qlik, Tableau, etc.) for visualization and analysis
- Reprocesses automatically when vocabularies are refined in DSTopics or thresholds are adjusted in DSMatch
- Tailors outcomes to your business and domain language instead of generic models
DSTopics | Tailored Topics Taxonomies (TTT)
- Import, build, or select vocabularies and data types that reflect your business and subject matter expertise
- Define and weight domain language for accurate results and continuously refine to adapt to changing needs
- Add, delete, and edit terms on the fly; DSIndex reprocesses and rematches files instantly
- Use taxonomies across multiple domains and contexts to scale without duplication
- I.E., “Covid-19” topic is in a medical taxonomy but not IT. Investment banking topic has “Derivatives,” retail banking has “Checking Accounts”
DSMatch | Weighted Topic Scoring (WTS)
- Categorizes and prioritizes files using user-defined weighted topic score thresholds in must-have and nice-to-have topics
- Refines results through multi-level ranking, filtering, sorting, and routing across matches and topics
- Highlights weighted terms in topic color and displays dual bar charts for full transparency and validation, making gaps and matches obvious
- Continuously processes new files so they are auto-classified and matched
- Ensures prioritized outcomes that reflect your rules and defined thresholds
Together, they form a patented approach we call “Profile Matching of Unstructured Documents” — modeled after a contour profile gauge carpentry tool, because DataScava measures language based on your priorities.
Prebuilt Editable Taxonomies
Jump-start your projects with ready-to-use taxonomies for Financial, IT, and Talent domains — fully customizable and expandable. Select, edit, or build on them to reflect your unique expertise.
The DataScava Difference
- Less time, more accuracy – Filters and categorizes automatically, so experts can focus on real business problems instead of tedious labeling
- Precision at scale – Produces explainable, numeric results you can trust across industries and contexts
- Transparency over black-box AI – See and audit exactly why a file matched, with visual highlights and numeric thresholds
- Handles messy data – Irrelevant documents are filtered out automatically
- Scalable and domain-specific – Refine vocabularies, taxonomies, and scoring to meet evolving business needs
- Human in Command – You remain in control, with automation working alongside your expertise.
- Deterministic by design – Unlike NLP/NLU, it doesn’t infer meaning; it measures what you define and presents data in transparent, actionable context
Deployment Options
- On-Premises: Reads/writes to your existing database
- Cloud-Based: Hosted on AWS for scalability and security
- REST API: Access index values through simple GET calls for seamless integration
Transparent Results You Can See
Transparency is built into every step of DataScava. The platform provides visual proof of its outputs, so you can trust and act on your data.
File Match
Dual bar charts show how a file scores against required and desired topic thresholds, making matches and gaps immediately visible.
Color-Coded Topic Key Terms
Highlighted and color-coded terms make it clear which terms contributed to topic scores — and which did not.
Tailored Topics Taxonomies
Build, import, and refine business-specific taxonomies in real time to reflect your unique language and expertise.
DSMatches Grid
A sortable grid view shows each file name with its numeric topic scores, so you can rank, filter, and multi-sort results by your own priorities.
