🏷️Classifier

Classify companies with your custom-defined categories.

The Classifier module of webAI enables precise categorisation of text data from selected companies based on custom-defined categories and their descriptions.

You can find the Classifier module under "Modules", which you can access via the left toolbar of the platform. Click on "Load Module" to open it.

Before posing your categories and descriptions, you need to load your pre-selected firm dataset. For this, select your previous searches from the dropdown bar and then click on "Load Company List".

You can then formulate the categories for your data in the editable box under "Category Name". Every category needs a description for further specification, which you can input in the box under "Category Description". After defining your categories, click on "Add Category to Category Collection" to add them to the list. You can add up to 10 categories.

💡 Tip: Use the editable box "Name your category collection." and click on "Save" to save the categories for further analysis.

There are no restrictions on the content of your categories and description, but the answer will always be based on the information we have about the company in question. Here are a few sample categories in the field of technology you could use:

1. Artifical Intelligence

   • Description: This company develops AI solutions for various industries.

2. Natural Language Processing

   • Description: NLP is a branch of AI focused on enabling computers to understand, interpret, and generate human language. This includes tasks like sentiment analysis, named entity recognition, machine translation, and dialogue systems.

3. IT Security

   • Description: The company reports that itself is ISO/IEC 27001 certified.

Note: The classifications are based on the website content of the companies analysed. If a company does not provide any information on your categories, webAI cannot answer it. For example, information on the example categories mentioned above would be more likely to be found on the websites of IT companies than on construction companies.

After a couple of seconds, you will receive the relevant categories with a short summary for four sample firms in separate boxes. This way you can see whether webAI's classification matches your expectations or whether you still need to adjust the categories. If our AI is not sure how to classify a company or does not find any information, it will state explicitly that there is no information available for this company.

Important: Note that each test classification costs 4 webAI Credits. Please also note that the analysis of a company in your list will also cost webAI credits if webAI cannot find any information about your categories during the analysis.

If you are satisfied with the results and want to classify all the firms in your pre-selected list, you can click on "Start". You will see again which categories you are classifying for and how many credits it will cost to classify all companies in your selected dataset. Before starting, you need to accept that you are aware of these costs.

Analysing your list can take a while if it contains many companies. In the meantime, you can continue working on the webAI platform or go for a coffee. We will notify you by email as soon as your results are available for download. You can then download them from My Files.
