About Loqu8
Just touch the screen or hover your mouse over a word or phrase of interest and Loqu8 instantly pops up a window. See critical account information, product status or chats directly from any application (email, document or web page)—without opening a web browser window and manually logging into a cloud service. In an unpredictable and fast-pace world, Loqu8 empowers users with the information they need to learn quickly, work efficiently and make timely decisions.
Our user-guided, on-demand information model is the culmination of years of research at Caltech and Stanford universities in cognitive science and information processing. By merely hovering the mouse over words, a popup window instantaneously displays the right information at the right time. Instead of manually retrieving information, users experience augmented intelligence in real world contexts as they interact with emails, websites and documents.
Loqu8 instantly displays information from databases
and other resources in a pop-up on desktops and mobile devices
Information becomes immediately actionable as users apply this contextual knowledge in original applications in real-time—saving time and reducing errors and costs. When timely retrieval of information is critical, Loqu8’s augmented intelligence engine eliminates tedious steps--delivering quality information in about 100 milliseconds. Unlike other knowledge management technologies, products powered by iNtuition provide a powerful, self-discovery environment. When individuals hesitate to search for tedious details, Loqu8 software can immediately display relevant information whenever they point to part numbers or customer names with their mouse or finger. Within the popup window, users can update information, view related topics or drill down for even more details.
Loqu8 Insight is the company's enterprise product for improving employee productivity. By linking to Microsoft SharePoint, Outlook, Excel and other data services, users can immediately find relevant organization-wide information by pointing with a mouse. With live editing, workers can even update information (subject to user authentication rules) and propagate just those changes throughout the workgroup, department or even enterprise.
Our roots in augmented learning began with language learning tools for individuals. By starting with Chinese, one of the most difficult languages to learn, thousands of loyal users in leading universities and multi-national corporations are enjoying the power and simplicity of on-demand learning. Loqu8-branded products for Chinese include iCE instant Chinese-English translator/dictionary, Copyworks custom learning tools.
