bluecap™ AI Meeting Assistant vs. Cortana (discontinued)

Very useful in classic business meetings where information is supposedly shared and where action items are supposedly agreed upon for further action. The technology can identify participation and nonparticipation in meetings which can point to areas where further analysis might be warranted. I found it useful in a recent not-for-profit board meeting where the meeting minutes were created and action item created within an hour of the close of the meeting. This saved lots of time and allowed the participants to focus on what was being said.

As a provider of software applications to the legal market there is not a huge amount that the Cortana Intelligence suite can be utilised for though at the speed that new features are being added I suspect that will change very quickly. However the current functionality is clearly really well suited for e-commerce companies or vertical markets where process is very prescriptive and linear.

I prefer the online assistant but I’ve used Bluecap versus other similar products. It is more straightforward, definitely more accurate and it has a better reporting and visualization function. Bluecap is one of the leaders within this cluttered market, and I only expect it to become more sophisticated and more efficient, and valuable for small, medium, or large companies in the future. It is a good standard-bearer and a system that I am happy to use and recommend.

IBM Watson Assistant has been early into this market and has improved a lot over time compared to Azure AI Cortana. More documentation related to the services. But Ease of integration Azure AI ranks over IBM Watson Assistant. And again in terms of services offered under the ecosystem, Azure AI precedes IBM Watson Assitant.
