thinkAnalytics' K.wiz Gains Phenomenal Acceptance

thinkAnalytics Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gentia Software, announced that its latest $3.0 million license deal for K.wiz, a fully integrated knowledge discovery and data mining platform, to a leading European eCRM software company vaults the Company over its revenue target for the year. The OEM agreement brings the Company's revenue to over $4 million for its first five months of operation.

K.wiz is the culmination of a five-year development effort and has been built with the intention of being embedded by software and third party providers. The 100% Pure Java component-based architecture allows for easy integration into the most demanding environments. The K.wiz platform allows for the rapid development of data mining solutions with a library of advanced statistical, data mining algorithms and visualization techniques. Its advanced Accelerated Database is a patented compression technology, which can process millions of records and deliver real-time responses.

"Leveraging patented indexing technology, the Accelerated Database shrinks data storage requirements to approximately 1/100th the size they would be if the data were stored in a relational database," said Bob Moran, Research vice-president and Managing Director, Decision Support at The Aberdeen Group "The result: enterprises can mine much larger sets of data, whether they want to use sampling techniques or run against a full data set."

"Five years ago, the vision for K.wiz spanned three areas: Automation, Scalability and Deployment," said Tim Jones, president and CTO, thinkAnalytics Corporation. "It is exciting to see the convergence between our product development with emerging standards of Java, XML and PMML and the market's needs. There is no other product on the market that makes data mining as easy to use and integrate. We look forward to helping software providers and consulting partners add unparalleled analytical capabilities to their offerings."

Since its official launch in June 2000, thinkAnalytics has achieved significant milestones in its first two quarters and is looking to close a private placement by the end of Q4. Among the most recent highlights:

• Exceeded its revenue goal of $4MM for FY 2000, most notably with the $3MM licensing of K.wiz to a leading eCRM software provider;
• Licensed K.wiz to a privately-held CRA company as well as thinkCRA to ARC International, a leading provider of consumer glassware in the United States, in its first two weeks of operation;
• Signed a strategic consulting partnership with CGI and are actively and jointly promoting the benefits of thinkAnalytics' products throughout the United States and Canada;
• Signed consulting and marketing agreements with leading technology providers: Unisys, internetQueryObject, SQL AG, and Firstwave.

"Overall, we are very excited about the growing maturity of CRM solutions requiring deep analytical processing in a real-time environment," said Richard Osbourn, senior vice president of marketing. "The current investments in CRM and data warehousing will provide the need for the unique analytical engine and platform that we alone provide."
