Progress Semaphore

What Progress Semaphore is

Progress Semaphore provides a semantic layer intended to make generative AI outcomes more relevant, explainable, and trustworthy. Its modular platform manages knowledge models, extracts facts, classifies structured and unstructured information, and produces semantic metadata. Listed uses include conversational agents, document question-and-answer systems, enterprise semantic search, and content generation. Semantic RAG adds enterprise data to prompts to support contextually relevant responses and reduce hallucinations and data biases. Business users can moderate and instruct Semaphore, while subject matter experts manage and maintain knowledge models. The models and metadata help show what information and actions shaped decisions. Semaphore can be deployed on premises, as SaaS, on demand, or in a hybrid environment, and customers can license only the modules they need. Listed integrations include MarkLogic, NiFi, OpenText, SharePoint Online, Sitecore, Solr, and WAND. The 30-day trial provides a personalized cloud environment, access to all capabilities, and guided onboarding. Trial activities include ontology building, document classification, semantic search testing, and validating AI use cases with company data. Pricing is on request; no free plan is listed.
