"We're make sense of dark data to help companies in technology, law, medicine, and government extract information from text."

Ignore the grammar error, you're helping government extract information from text? Where exactly? Do you mean the NSA? Do you mean helping the government look at public internet written commentary to track citizens?



Thanks for catching that!

We don't do anything like that, in fact, we don't work with the government at all right now. We know that there is a huge application of this technology in the government beyond the Department of Defense. For example, large corpuses of text data other government agencies might need to process like the Census Bureau, the IRS, etc.


That's evil. I'll hate you if you help the IRS.
