Language
Watson understands the language of your business. Natural language processing lets Watson analyze complex, unstructured data, computer code, and even industry-specific jargon. So you can make more informed decisions and deliver better experiences.
Automation
Watson streamlines how businesses operate and yields leaps in productivity. Intelligently automate virtually any type of work, at scale. Augment core strengths, offset skilled-labor shortages, and give employees more time to focus on creating new value.
Anywhere
Watson works securely on any cloud. Underpinned by Red Hat OpenShift, Watson brings AI to your data wherever it resides, including AWS, Azure, and GCP. This means a more unified view of your data, more consistency and flexibility, and better integration.
