Loqu8 Announces Insight
Mouse Over Text to Visually Search and Update Key Data from Microsoft Excel, SharePoint and Google Docs Spreadsheets
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. – Information workers frequently need to
access business information, yet critical data is frequently stored
inside spreadsheets and databases. Loqu8 Insight instantly displays
information from multiple resources in a single pop-up window. Users
can visually search for critical data from a web page or inside a
Microsoft Office document (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
“Business users are inundated with information in their workplace,”
explained Dr. Timothy Uy, President and CEO of Loqu8. “With
employees wasting up to 20% of their time searching, gathering and
recreating information, Insight is a powerful instant information
tool that can dramatically improve worker productivity and expedite
business decisions.”
Insight Empowers Workers with Visual Search
When fast response time is important, Loqu8 Insight enables
workers to meet the most demanding requests for real-time
information. Mouse over text to view financials from Excel, lists
from SharePoint and product specs from Access. Insight consolidates
the widest range of information in a streamlined pop-up window for
instant access on a web page, Microsoft Office document or other
application. Collaborate with others and synch data from Google Docs
spreadsheets.

• Organizations: keep employees updated with corporate glossaries,
FAQs and LOB scorecards

The Power of Instant Information
Refined through years of research at Stanford University in
cognitive science and information processing, Loqu8’s augmented
information engine responds immediately when users hover their mouse
over words. Windows 7 compatible touch screens are also supported.
By understanding the users’ original context (application
environment plus words and sentence), Insight shows relevant
information through a pop-up window. This knowledge becomes
immediately actionable when they apply the information in
real-time—saving time plus reducing errors and costs.
