Melingo
is a leader in computerization of Hebrew. The company offers a unique
infrastructure that it is able to break down even the most complex Hebrew texts
into their true components, enabling automatic processing of these texts for
all computer applications, including search, information extraction, and
automatic speech technology.

Melingo's
products leverage over 100 person-years, including vast databases, complex and
precise algorithms, leading NLP expertise in general, and Hebrew NLP in
particular. Melingo is the only company that specializes in all aspects of NLP
in Hebrew, a language considered particularly complex in respect to automation,
due to the vast number of inflected forms, the consonantal script that omits
vowels, and the high degree of ambiguity.

government clients, to create innovative, tailored and scalable solutions to
these and other challenges. Melingo's unique technological infrastructure,
together with its strategic partnerships, provide the company with a robust and
unique platform for continued growth as it expands its activities to additional

Technology.
Melingo has created solutions for automatic text to speech (TTS), a technology
that enables unified messaging technologies, voice SMS, and other speech
applications to support Hebrew text. Kolan™ makes it possible for users to
listen to documents, to e-mail messages, Internet pages, appointment books,
etc. while commuting or driving a car, all in a human voice over the telephone.
In addition, the Personal Kolan™ assists the visually challenged, dyslexic, or
otherwise handicapped, to allow them to hear any text displayed on a computer
screen instead of having to read it, or to help them communicate with their
surroundings.
