Septet Systems
Septet Systems Inc. was formed to address the need for easy-to-use tools that provide useful information analysis to a broad range of users. Our philosophy advocates server-based tools for accessing and analyzing data from the World Wide Web and proprietary
data sources. This approach is an alternative to costly investments in proprietary tools that enterprises (and individuals) are often faced with.
Our decades of collective information management expertise has brought to the market award winning services such as k-sync (for “knowledge synchronization”) as well a custom solutions for corporate and government
databases and websites.
Solutions
Septet Systems began as a custom solutions group dedicated to providing leading edge, easy to use tools for extracting and organizing information. Our company draws from decades of expertise in the telecommunications, information sciences, and military
information systems.
One of our earliest products from the mid 1990s, "Village", was among the first to explore the concept of community building through the repositories of information
that users in a community of interest would build and maintain. Of course, this concept is nowadays better known as "social networking". Village also exploited early approaches to distributed Web search. Many of the concepts
in Village have been leveraged in our later TX-Miner and k-sync products.
Today, our award-winning k-sync brings to everyday and professional Web users a capability to store, organize, and share information in a simple
way without the need for expensive proprietary information management tools.
Plagium
Plagium (www.plagium.com) is a Web-based tool that assists in the discovery of plagiarized content on the World Wide Web. Likewise, Plagium can be applied to track the legitimate usage
of content, such as syndicated news stories carried by multiple Web sites. Plagium can also be used to track the appearance of fraudulent Web sites whose purpose is to steal user confidential information (such as credit
card information), while attempting to resemble a legitimate Web site.
Plagium is offered free of charge to casual users. A Deep Search capability enables users to perform a more exhaustive analysis of larger documents
for usage of text within the documents over the Web. Plagium's alert feature automatically warns users on a periodic basis when a newly found Web site contains text of interest.
Plagium now has API modules that enable
Web site owners and text management services to incorporate an in-line plagiarism checking facility. Institutional packages are likewise available to Plagium users in schools, professional societies, and other organizations
that can take advantage of volume usage of the service at a reduced price.
We invite you to explore how Septet can meet your future data organization and management needs through innovative, server-based solutions that reflect a new thinking in how business over the Web should be conducted.
