Megaputer Intelligence, Inc., is a software company headquartered in Bloomington, Indiana, United States, that provides data and text mining tools along with consulting services. Megaputer was established in 1997 by Sergei Ananyan, Michael Kiselev, and Yuri Slynko. The name Megaputer is a play on the words mega and computer, as their software deals with large amounts of structured and unstructured (text) types of data, to provide companies with insights to make more qualified decisions.
History
In the beginning there was a research and development group in artificial intelligence at Moscow State University that came together to make advances in machine learning. They developed small, separate algorithms designed for specific analytical tasks such as modeling equity price changes, classifying heart diseases, and identifying products typically purchased in groups. They formed Megaputer Intelligence and came out with their first software version called PolyAnalyst that grouped these analytical tasks into one package.
Megaputer moved to Bloomington, Indiana, in 1996 and worked in close association with Indiana University, their first customer. Business interest grew in the United States to employ these various analytical programs to help with a range of tasks for various industries. Megaputer took advantage of this growing interest and grew their business and their capabilities as they worked with several different organizations within the marketing, manufacturing, health and pharmaceutical, insurance, and financial industries as well as government agencies (in that order of progression).

Products
PolyAnalyst
Their flagship software program that performs analysis on both structured and unstructured forms of data.[3] The program is referred to as an end-to-end data processing tool in that it can load data from several different sources and take it all the way to reporting analytical results. The process details a cleansing and prepping stage which leads to analysis using machine learning and text analysis functions until the results are published on a web-based interactive interface. Or the results can be exported into formats for use in other programs.[4]
