New Features Significantly Streamline Speed to Insights with Plug-and-Play Data Sets and Algorithms

Semantix, Latin America’s first fully integrated data platform, announced today the availability of a Data & AI Marketplace, consisting of a new array of features that significantly streamline the analytical journey for users of the Semantix Data Platform (known as SDP). The Data & AI Marketplace provides an app store-like experience that puts frequently used data sets and pre-packaged, vertical specific algorithms at the fingertips of data scientists and business analysts around the world.

“Data scientists and business analysts shouldn’t need a doctorate in software engineering to glean insights from complex data sets,” said Leonardo Santos, co-founder and CEO of Semantix. “The SDP was purpose-built as an end-to-end solution for the analytical journey and these new features give our community of users the tools and resources that can make their journey easier and faster than it’s ever been before.”

The new features in the SDP are broken into two separate categories – data sets and vertical specific algorithms. The data sets are a variety of pre-packaged, highly applicable data sets that users can leverage to train their machine learning algorithms and corollate with other proprietary data assets. These data sets include frequently used data on weather, diseases, stocks trade activity, consumer behavior and more. The vertical specific algorithms are meant to automate and streamline commonly analyzed business functions and use cases. For example, there is available today in SDP algorithms and dashboards for customer churn and retention, demand forecasting, predictive maintenance and more.

Fueling Innovation for Public Journey Ahead

Innovation is at the center of Semantix’s core values as a company. The SDP Marketplace is another milestone in Semantix’s ongoing commitment to push the envelope of innovation as it makes its way to the public market. In November of 2021, Semantix announced that it entered into a definitive agreement to merge with Alpha Capital (NASDAQ: ASPC), a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”) focused on technology. The announcement marked the first time a Latin American-focused technology SPAC had merged with a target company and highlights its growing position as a leading global innovator in the data and analytics space.
