Cross-lingual Name Matching Software

Explainable AI and Consistent Match Scores
Explains the differences between two names that contributed to the match confidence score (from 0 to 100%). Use automated workflows for matches above and below a threshold score, with only a narrow range between two thresholds for human review.
User-Friendly Interface
Match Studio, a user-friendly administrative interface, shows the explanations for the match score and enables non-technical, domain experts to see the effect of parameter changes in real time on match scores. Through Match Studio, users can modify match behavior to optimize accuracy for their data profile or risk policy, such as reducing the penalty for a missing name component or giving greater weight to a name than a date of birth.
Intelligent Record Matching
Name Match applies AI and specialized techniques to intelligently match personal names but also:
- Organization/company names - leveraging semantic similarity to match terms like “Building” and “Construction”
- Postal addresses - using AI for field identification and extraction (street, city, country) and incorporating semantic understanding of postal codes
- Dates – balancing between textual and temporal information
Flexible Licensing and Deployment
Name Match is priced and licensed based on the number of transactions and index size, so customers only pay for what they need. Deployment options include a RESTful API via cloud or on-premises (server or Java SDK), and integration through a plugin mechanism for Elasticsearch.
