Local Knowledge Software, Services and Expertise

Brilliant Arc® is a Local Knowledge company. We transform local data (places, things and events) into local knowledge (cool homes, great businesses, fun getaways) using TrajectoryTM, our Knowledge Graph Platform. Trajectory has a number of mix-and-match components, either hosted or installed, and a number complementary services all designed to help customers continuously transform simple keywords and questionable data into structured knowledge and quality content. The Cloud component of Trajectory helps our customers get the data they need through crowdsourcing.

TrajectoryTM Knowledge Platform

The Brilliant Arc® TrajectoryTM Local Knowledge Platform is a practical knowledgebase management system. Trajectory provides a solution to managing taxonomies consisting of categories of keywords with the simplicity of a spreadsheet - without the spreadsheet part. As you'll learn in our User Manual, Trajectory implements a very simple yet richly expressive way to represent keywords for display, retrieval, search, reference and differentiation - all through a scalable, distributed, and RESTful server-based implementation. While general-purpose, we and our customers use Trajectory as a high-performance platform for modeling the Local GraphTM to field continuously differentiated local search and discovery applications.

CloudTM Collaborative Tagging

The Brilliant Arc® CloudTM Collaborative Tagging extension to Trajectory turns simple unstructured data into quality structured content - at high volume and high speed.

Our CloudTM Collaborative Tagging process delivers high quality tagged content at very reasonable prices. Read more...
