Ovum's "On the Radar" is a series of research notes about vendors bringing innovative ideas, products and business models to the market. Ovum's analysts recommend Loop AI Labs to enterprises looking to bring down the cost of entry into the use of neural network technology and machine learning.

"Loop AI Labs will be most cost-effective for companies that have needed to spend considerable human effort extracting marketing and other insights from unstructured data and have been prohibited from doing so due to cost," said Michael Azoff, Infrastructure Solutions Analyst, Ovum. "Using Loop AI Labs will significantly speed up the time to value in undertaking such analysis."

Highlights from "On the Radar: Loop AI Labs" report include:

• The Loop Cognitive Computing Platform offers language and domain independent learning and real time reasoning to deliver deep structural insights on dark data in any form, including text and speech
• It automates tasks that traditionally require human intelligence, such as planning, reasoning from partial and uncertain information, and learning
• In a Loop AI Labs case study, 18 minutes of runtime on the Loop Cognitive Computing Platform did the equivalent work of 4,000 hours of employees' intellectual time.
• The typical deployment uses a powerful on-premise graphics processing unit GPU-based appliance, which makes adoption straightforward

"We've created a cognitive computing platform that is 100% unsupervised and provides continuous learning at scale," said Gianmauro Calafiore, CEO of Loop AI Labs. "Customers simply plug in our appliance, feed it all the raw dark data and, over time, the system keeps learning and updating concepts and relationships on its own. The insights learned from cognitive computing have already transformed our business world as we know it. The next phase will help bring digital transformation to every enterprise on the globe. Thank you to Ovum for recognizing Loop AI Labs' unique, transformative technology."
