DocAuto Introduces ePredict 2.0

No person is an island, and that’s especially true in the modern office.  DocAuto (News - Alert) has announced the release of version 2.0 of its ePredict email tagging solution for WorkSite.


The new release is intended to make it easier for people to collaborate with each other by automatically tagging email messages in outlook based on their address and their subject lines. For example, emails sent to a manager regarding a budget would be filed under one category, and emails to another employee about a separate project would be filed in another category.

The system learns automatically based on the emails employees send, so there’s no need to train it. ePredict’s predictions get better over time as more people send emails.

DocAuto has aimed for ease of use. Users don’t have to think about the categories ahead of time, but the emails are automatically filed while they’re being composed. Anyone curious as to why ePredict filed emails a certain way can look at the detailed reports available.

Email is already a tool that most office workers are familiar with, and Outlook is still very popular in businesses, so there won’t be as much of a need for training compared to learning a new system. It also works with Outlook Web Access and mobile devices without installing any more software.

Applications like WorkSite are great for collaboration, but these systems require that users import their existing data. For offices that have a lot of projects and generate a lot of communications, this can be very tedious.

ePredict aims to make these systems almost frictionless by automatically tagging and importing messages. DocAuto claims that ePredict is a “zero additional click” system.

Other features that ePredict has added to the new release include improved bulk-tagging and message cleanup, improved support for multi-server and multi-database environments and faster performance.
