Teracase™ is a WhamTech legacy product – it is no longer offered as one of our products. We retained the product description below for reference as some of the capabilities are either part of our current products or could be incorporated if needed. For information on our current products, please visit our products page here.  

Most eDiscovery tools rely heavily on text search and some include concept searches with varying degrees of success.  WhamTech leveraged the leading edge capabilities of a categorization tool whereby it allows the end-user to quickly converge on a category model.

The category model is used as a filter either on its own or combination with other filters for use against the entire set of e-mails and documents. WhamTech’s primary market is Early Case Assessment; both for corporate preemption and after a case has been identified.  WhamTech’s secondary market is full eDiscovery. Other WhamTech products benefit from either Teracase™ itself for information discovery or the categorization tool.
