Put Your Expertise
On the Web

and In Your Product

Would you like to take your expertise, or the expertise of someone in your company or organization and make it usable by a wider range of people? If so, KnowledgeWright is the tool for you.

The KnowledgeWright Basic Jig models the conversations that an expert has with another person. It asks questions, gathers information and reaches conclusions by reasoning. Like a real conversation the questions follow one another, delving into more detail or exploring related topics. The result of the conversation is one or more custom generated documents with information and recommendations individually crafted for that particular person.

Easy to Build, Easy to Maintain

The KnowledgeWright Workshop is a graphical environment for entering your expertise. In addition to posing questions to ask your users, and crafting your advice to them, you can enter rules in a tabular format, make use of formulas, query databases and more.

And, the Workshop has a runtime debugger so you can watch the reasoning process in your knowledgebase a step-at-a-time.

Fits Right Into Your Website

Your knowledgebase can be made available on the web with KnowledgeWright's ready-to-run web interface. The information and advice provided by your expert system can point to existing documents and pictures on your website.

Also knowledgebases can be developed and deployed in any language.

Fits Right Into Your Product

You can also embed your knowledgebase into your software product using our KnowledgeWright Interface (KWI). The KWI supports virtually any programming language or tool including C/C++, Java, Visual Basic and Delphi. Full, working source-code, prototypes are included with KnowledgeWright.

Gather Information from Other Places

In addition to asking customers questions, your knowledgebases can query databases, files, servers and more. KnowledgeWright includes the ability to issue SQL queries so you can look-up customer information, etc. It also allows the reasoning engine to gather "external facts". These facts can be settings in your program or the user's operating system.

Take Actions Too

Part of a KnowledgeWright recommendation is the ability to take actions. For example, if no advice can be formulated, all the information your customer entered about their situation can be immediately forwarded to a live expert. This gives your expert a good start on making recommendations, and prevents your customer from having to provide the same information over again.

When run within your software program, your knowledgebase can use "external actions" to generate a file, run a menu item, etc.

Learn from Your Customers

KnowledgeWright records each conversation in a database for later analysis. You can learn what solutions are used most often. Then you can use this information to determine what solutions need to be added.

    "Can the Internet really help us make decisions? More and more Web sites are popping up to guide us through the rocky rapids of decision-making.
    ...
    There is at least one serious use of decision-making technology on the Internet: a well-thought-out site created for military personnel by the Department of Defense. At the Breast Cancer Decision Guide, interactive consultations are available for women and men who have been diagnosed with breast cancer and for anyone who is concerned about them."
