Amazon Comprehend vs. Wordnerds

Amazon Comprehend is a natural language processing (NLP) service that uses machine learning to find insights and relationships in text. Amazon Comprehend identifies the language of the text; extracts key phrases, places, people, brands, or events; understands how positive or negative the text is; and automatically organizes a collection of text files by topic.

Wordnerds is a UK-based SaaS company whose mission is to teach computers to read—and genuinely understand—language. 80% of the world’s data exists in the form of unstructured text. Big businesses are bombarded daily by millions of tweets, emails, webchats, online reviews, survey results, CRM-entries, news articles and forum posts written by, for and about them. But language is weird, unpredictable, colloquial, fluid, sarcastic and entirely dependent on context. It’s hard to make sense of and, for most organisations, totally invisible.
