Squirro combines structured and unstructured data to provide the ‘Why’ behind the data, delivering vital context and turning disparate data points into a story. Squirro delivers a personalized, real time contextual stream naturally integrated in an enterprise application. The power of Squirro derives from its proprietary Smart Filter technology that connects personal interests and workflows while learning and refining as user interactions increase.
