RELEASE: SharePoint Syntex

Introducing SharePoint Syntex. Use advanced #AI and machine teaching to amplify human expertise, automate content processing, and transform content into knowledge. This will be available to purchase for Microsoft 365 commercial customers on October 1.

imageSharePoint Syntex, the first product from Project Cortex, will be available to purchase for all Microsoft 365 commercial customers on October 1, 2020. In addition to SharePoint Syntex, other innovations from Project Cortex will become generally available later this year.

SharePoint Syntex uses advanced AI and machine teaching to amplify human expertise, automate content processing, and transform content into knowledge.

Machine teaching accelerates the creation of AI models by acquiring knowledge from people rather than from large datasets alone. Any information processing skill, that an expert can teach a human, should be easily teachable to a machine.

SharePoint Syntex mainstreams machine teaching, enabling your experts to capture their knowledge about content in AI models they can build with no code. Your experts train SharePoint Syntex to understand content like they do, to recognize key information, and to tag content automatically. For example, a contract processing expert can teach SharePoint Syntex to extract the contract’s value, along with the expiration date and key terms and conditions.

SharePoint Syntex then uses your models to automate the capture, ingestion, and categorization of content, extracting valuable information as metadata. Metadata is critical to managing content, and seamless integration with Microsoft Search, Power Automate, and Microsoft Information Protection enable you to improve knowledge discovery and reuse, accelerate processes, and dynamically apply information protection and compliance policies.

The example given that Syntex can add value in is “Contract Processing”:

Digitally Read & Identify key information

  • image“Have your contract specialists teach Syntex to read contracts & recognize key information and automatically tag contracts… with no code.”
  • “Teach Syntex to identify the contract value, the expiration date and key terms and conditions – and place that in a repeatable model"
  • image“With that model, Syntex can automatically process your documents, capture that important information as metadata – simply by dragging and dropping your contracts into SharePoint.”

Automatically Align Information to Business Processes

  • “The extracted metadata is viewable in table columns for each document, enabling users, for example, to compare and contrast the terms and conditions of all the contracts in your organization.”
  • “This view can be used to change processes – for example, prioritizing expiring contracts and routing them for renewal.  Or automatically applying sensitivity and retention labels based on the type of contract – to reduce risk and adhere to compliance rules.”

Reuse Models for Broaden Efficiency

  • “Take and apply models to different departments or users to increase value, improve efficiency and scale your knowledge.”
