Nexidia Announces eDiscovery OnDemand Services

ATLANTA, August 08, 2006 -- Nexidia, the leading provider of audio search and speech analytics solutions for the legal industry, government intelligence, and contact center management, today announced the availability of Nexidia eDiscovery OnDemand.

eDiscovery OnDemand is a managed service that enables law firms and litigation support providers to use Nexidia’s secure infrastructure to upload recorded audio for search and analysis. Nexidia litigation consultants will help tailor the project to identify relevant audio content, and search results can be integrated back into an existing litigation repository or review tool.

Nexidia offers a complete solution that brings the benefits of speech analytics to the discovery process by enabling:

• accurate search and discovery of critical evidence from within recorded audio assets
• fast turnaround on projects with thousands of hours of audio content

Nexidia’s highly scalable and accurate audio mining and speech analytics software is the easiest solution to deploy and use in the market today. eDiscovery OnDemand makes audio discovery even easier by enabling users to quickly access intelligence locked away in recorded audio without additional investment in hardware or software.

Nexidia’s Phonetic Search Engine technology allows for faster audio search by identifying phoneme patterns, and also provides higher accuracy than dictionary-dependent, speech-to-text based audio search.

“eDiscovery OnDemand provides unmatched speed, accuracy and sophisticated analytics solutions combined with deep in-house expertise in electronic discovery,” said John Willcutts, president and CEO of Nexidia. “We are answering the demand from our customers to make speech intelligence available as a service in order to quickly support case loads for audio and video discovery.”

Nexidia’s in-house infrastructure is the largest commercial deployment of speech analytics in the world, with the capacity to conduct analysis of 63,000 hours of audio content each day. In the past year Nexidia analyzed and reported on over 12 million recordings.

eDiscovery OnDemand is available today on both an on-going and per project basis.
