Fios, Inc., a provider of electronic discovery services, and Engenium, Corp., a concept-based search technology company, have announced a licensing partnership. The agreement will bring Engenium's advanced search technology, Semetric, to Fios' Web-based electronic discovery tool, Prevail. The combined solution will make Fios the first and only full-service electronic discovery provider to offer advanced, concept-based searching capabilities. The concept-based search technology being added to Prevail will enable users to organize unstructured information by mapping relationships between each word and every other word in large sets of documents. This association of words based on the context in which they are used creates a form of numeric 'meaning' and 'understanding,' enabling legal teams to quickly identify relevant documents and related concepts within vast amounts of data even when those documents do not share any words with a query.
