Sybase iAnywhere - Natural Language Interface Development & Deployment

Answers Anywhere harnesses the power of computer applications by enabling end-users - whether they are on a wireless phone, using a handheld PDA, interacting with a customized console or at a desktop computer - to get accurate, relevant information fast, no matter how complex their requirements are. Answers Anywhere is a robust, scalable middleware platform with powerful context understanding and natural language capabilities. It lets users bypass multi-layered menus and complex pull-down interfaces to access what they need quickly and reliably. Applications built with Answers Anywhere can even anticipate users' needs within the context of an ongoing interactive session, or "dialogue".
