Products
Our products are built with our core technology, a network service that promotes complete independence between the user interface and the database layers. Our technology is a rule engine that keeps the SQL out of the application code, allowing you to change the app or the database without worrying about damaging the other.

Lexímeter™ (Available September 13, 2010)
Using newly developed algorithms and a completely different approach to document analysis, the Lexímeter analyzes English text for writing style. By comparing the Lexímeter's scoring of a document of unknown provenance against a database of the scores of documents of known authors, it is possible to rule out some people from the group of potential authors, and it is possible to infer authorship with a reasonably high probability.
The Lexímeter is currently available only for documents written in English, although the approach is suitable for languages that share linguistic features with English. The program is fast and efficient, and the score of a large novel such as Charles Dickens' A Tale of Two Cities can be computed in less than 15 seconds on a single CPU machine. Because the algorithms run in parallel in shared memory, the processing time can be as little as 5 seconds on a quad-core machine.
On September 7, 2010, we will direct the URL www.leximetrix.com to a site where you may submit your own writing samples over the web and find out whether you write more like "the Dickens" or a White House speechwriter.

21 July 2010 Update: Because the Lexímeter is nearing completion, we are not adding more features to Commander at the moment. Currently, Commander supports SQLite in addition to MySQL and Oracle. By using Commander to interface to an SQLite database, PHP developers can place the SQLite database to a more secure location, and they may also change to MySQL or Oracle at a time of their choosing.
Commander is a method and a technology for cleanly separating the mashup of languages that one finds in many business applications, particularly those that have web interfaces.
The introduction of Commander into a web application releases the grip that one layer has the other. When Commander is used, the user interface can be changed from PHP to Ruby to Java without disturbing the database, or the database can be changed from MySQL to Oracle without the user interface needing to know that the change was even made.
Commander provides cost savings on the human side; the most expensive part of a large software project is training the people. Few programmers on any staff are going to be equally adept with UI languages and SQL, and even SQL exists in different flavors with different extensions depending on the vendor.
Commander delivers its advantages in a language independent manner. Commander's interface is the same regardless of the programming language used. Commander completely removes SQL from the caller's application, thereby freeing user interface programmers from struggling with SQL while simultaneously liberating database specialists to work within their own zone of expertise.
Commander comes with a number of adapters for the major programming languages, so whether you are using Ruby, PHP, .NET, or Java, Commander's benefits are immediately available to you. And for the nuts-and-bolts programmers, Commander comes with a development kit that will allow you to write custom extensions to the server side functionality.
