Bamberg, 7 October 2024 – The most important prerequisite for being able to process masses of information intelligently is classifying and structuring it. Even when automating technical documentation and working with a component content management system (CCMS), the first step is always to create a classification and metadata concept. All existing and future content must then be clearly named and categorised in the structure using this product and information classification.
Dies erfordert ein hohes Maß an Produktkenntnis und analytischem Denken. Es ist ein langgehegter Wunsch vieler Entscheider, hierzu eine professionelle Lösung zu erhalten. Mit dieser Thematik haben sich Experten aus Wissenschaft und Praxis intensiv beschäftigt. Die professionelle KI-Lösung hierzu heißt nun „imaya®“. This requires a high degree of product knowledge and analytical thinking. It is a long-cherished wish of many decision-makers to have a professional solution for this. Experts from science and practice have been working intensively on this topic. The professional AI solution for this is now called ‘imaya®’.
AI-supported management of product information and technical documentation
In close cooperation, DOCUFY and Proricon now offer their customers imaya®, a holistic solution for the AI-supported management of product information and technical documentation in many areas.
The fact that Prof. Dr Wolfgang Ziegler, head of the Institute for Information and Content Management I4ICM and inventor of the PI-Class® classification model, is part of the Proricon GmbH team for conception and consulting speaks for the quality of the imaya® methodology.
Nadine Prill, Managing Director of DOCUFY GmbH, says: ‘We are very much looking forward to the intensive co-operation with Proricon. By integrating imaya® into our solutions, companies can manage their information even more efficiently, optimise cross-departmental collaboration and shorten time-to-market.
