Accurate keyword matching down to single page

If you have a large number of PDF files, HTML pages, or word documents consisting of millions of pages and you want to search for a specific phrase, well, you are in luck! Joyspace AI-powered search can find any keyword, irrespective of how many documents you have. The Joyspace AI search engine keeps indices in memory and pinpoints the exact page where keywords are found. All results are returned in milliseconds for any type of query, whether simple or complex. You will get the document name, page number, and all related metadata in the results.

What’s more interesting is that you can add filters and facets based on any indexed data and metadata field that you would like. It does not matter whether your front end is implemented in React, Vue, Svelte, or any other Javascript framework. You will always be able to use the core search experience in any language. 

Semantic Analysis for Document Search  

Traditional search engines often struggle to understand the context and meaning behind written content. However, AI search engines like Joyspace Search can leverage advanced semantic analysis techniques to comprehend the underlying concepts and ideas within documents. Joyspace AI-powered search approach ensures that users receive highly relevant results, even when using slightly different phrasing or synonyms. Joyspace achieves semantic matching with its advanced semantic matching engine built into search. There are no extra charges and no configuration required to enable semantic search.

By analyzing the semantic relationships between words and phrases, Joyspace AI search engines can identify the true intent behind a query. It then delivers results that match the user's conceptual understanding, rather than simply relying on keyword matching. 

We have customers who are able to search a hundred million or more documents within milliseconds. Since all indices are stored in memory, the Joyspace AI-powered search experience is lightning fast.

You can make this available instantly without needing to write any special code with the Joyspace AI search engine. This capability streamlines data extraction and analysis, saving valuable time and effort compared to manual methods.

AI Synonyms

One of the key advantages of Joyspace AI search is its ability to understand synonyms and related concepts on given documents, video, and audio data. This Joyspace AI search engine capability ensures that users receive relevant results even when using slightly different terminology or phrasing in their queries. For example, the document corpus may have the keyword “running shoes." If a user queries “Nike" or "Adidas” this document will be part of the search results even though there is no Nike or Adidas present in the document corpus. 

By leveraging natural language processing and semantic analysis techniques, Joyspace AI search identifies the underlying meaning and intent behind a query, and matches it with relevant content. This feature is extremely useful if you do not have a fixed schema in your document corpus or videos or if you have a diverse set of users with a wide range of query patterns. 

For users who may not be familiar with the specific terminology used in a particular domain or industry, enabling them to find the information they need using more natural language. In a nutshell, you never fail to answer users' queries. The Joyspace AI-powered search engine makes this experience delightful for you and your users. 

Scene Understanding

For visual content, the Joyspace AI search engine provides capabilities and APIs to analyze and interpret the overall context and meaning of an image or video. This is an extremely valuable feature if you want to analyze what is inside video data frame by frame. Common use cases are classification, training of ML/AI models, video security footage analysis, building content filters, content safety, and more. 

One example of scene comprehension is content moderation. Joyspace AI-powered search makes it easy for businesses to build content safety and security into their applications. You can easily filter out obscene contents, cuss words, vulgar language, and pretty much anything that does not fit your standards or rules. Joyspace AI search will provide highly accurate results for each visual content, whether images or videos.

Another example of scene understanding would be to train AI models for computer vision, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. You may want to train your models on certain scenes, but cutting down scenes from thousands of videos is a tedious task that can’t be done without human intervention and has a high cost. Instead, you can index your videos with the Joyspace AI search engine and use search queries as you fit. For example, if you are training on “person eating noodles” scenes, a Joyspace search will provide accurate timestamps, scenes, and descriptions of each scene from a library of thousands of videos. 

If you are building AI that uses visual content, this feature will be of high utility to you. This feature is included at no cost in our Standard and Enterprise plans.

Action Recognition

In addition to identifying objects, the Joyspace AI-powered search engine helps in the recognition and classification of various actions and activities within video content. This is searching inside the video for a specific action the user performed or said a specific word. We are the only AI that can do this at scale and with a very high degree of accuracy (99%).

As an example, you have thousands of hours of exercise video footage. You may want to search for how specific exercise is done or search for exercise based on target muscles. You can easily make this search available to users with the Joyspace AI search engine. The Joyspace AI-powered search capability is useful for a wide range of applications, including sports analytics, surveillance, and content recommendation systems.
