AllegroGraph Named a 2024 Trend Setting Product

Franz Inc. today announced AllegroGraph has been named a 2024 Trend Setting Product by KMWorld.

Earlier this year, Franz announced AllegroGraph v8, the first Neuro-Symbolic AI Platform to integrate Knowledge Graphs, Symbolic AI, Machine Learning, and Vector Storage, while guiding Generative AI via Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) to supply LLMs with source-of-truth data and prevent hallucinations.

“The shock waves emanating from the introduction of generative AI have now largely subsided. Companies are working to find real world uses for this pioneering technology that will bring true value to customers in the KM space.” said Marydee Ojala, Editor in Chief, KMWorld.  “Our 2024 look at trending products in knowledge management reveals that, along with exciting developments in GenAI, companies are utilizing related technologies, such as cloud computing, knowledge graphs, low- and no-code development, and platform innovation, in their approach to solving key KM problems. The products and services on this list reflect the vision and execution that will continue to drive the market to new heights.”

“We are honored to receive this industry recognition.  It is a testament to the critical role that Knowledge Graphs play in creating the next generation of AI driven applications. ” said Dr. Jans Aasman, CEO, Franz Inc. “Neuro-Symbolic AI represents the next evolution of artificial intelligence, where the integration of symbolic reasoning with machine learning delivers unparalleled accuracy, interpretability, and versatility. This approach advances AI technology and ensures that complex decision-making processes are transparent and reliable, setting new benchmarks for the industry.”

“Neuro-Symbolic AI is important because it addresses limitations in current AI systems, such as incorrect outputs, lack of generalization to a variety of tasks and an inability to explain the steps that led to an output. This leads to more powerful, versatile and interpretable AI solutions and allows AI systems to tackle more complex tasks with humanlike reasoning.” Source: Gartner, Hype Cycle for Artificial Intelligence, 2024.
