Open Calais also maps your metadata-tags to Thomson Reuters unique IDs. This supports disambiguation (and linking) of data across all documents processed by Open Calais, and also offers you the opportunity to further enrich your data with related information from the Thomson Reuters datasets.

At its core, these modules allow you to automatically tag your data. However, the Calais Web Service allows it to be taken a step further by not only identifying the terms in your content, but also identifying the context and relevancy of those terms. Many services can tell you that IBM was mentioned in your content, but no other service identifies that IBM is an Organization, then disambiguates all the various references to IBM (International Business Machines, etc.), and finally tells you with a scoring mechanism that your content is more about IBM than any other term identified. A truly innovative service, powered by incredible technology and extremely dedicated people.
