In April 2012, Vivisimo Inc was acquired by IBM. With strong ties to Carnegie Mellon, Vivisimo, Inc. is developing novel software that allows a user to overview and browse the contents of many hundreds of text documents (web pages, news, research articles, patents, etc.) within the limited space of a single computer screen, dispensing with the need for tedious clicking, backtracking, and scrolling. VivÃsimo is dedicated to solving the information overload problem that occurs when users face thousands of results returned by a web or enterprise search by categorizing search results, making them far more meaningful, useful, and actionable.
