Its Translingual platform translates 65 languages in real time into English, and the Global Knowledge Graph's GCAM suite assesses over 2,200 emotions and themes from articles. The homepage does not list pricing. Coverage before 1979 is being expanded through partnerships, and social media integration is described as emerging.
