VISION & MISSiON

The Company

Coreon GmbH is a European software company founded in 2012 to unify terminology and knowledge management. Coreon is a management owned company, headquartered in Berlin and has its core development team in Athens. Coreon is providing its innovative SaaS solution to innovative global champions, modern public institutions, and fast growing start-ups.
Our vision is to become the organization-wide multilingual semantic information infrastructure for companies and public bodies.

Our mission is to make it as easy as possible for subject matter experts to curate multilingual knowledge and for machines to consume it.

HISTORY

Our Origin

The founders of Coreon enjoy an extensive background in natural language processing, localization, and terminology management. Through our experience in developing the leading applications in these fields, we recognized a sad limitation: the valuable linguistic assets and embedded knowledge are utilized for translation purposes only.

Our research revealed two challenges: terminology management becomes quickly disorganized and ineffective without an underlying knowledge structure and knowledge management tends to be constrained within narrow and national boundaries and lack the diversity of terms across multiple languages and forms.

Motivated by these insights, we pioneered the concept of a Multilingual Knowledge System (MKS). We decided to bring this innovative system to the market as a Software as a Service (SaaS) solution, aiming to bridge these gaps and unlock the full potential of linguistic and knowledge assets on a global scale.

MULTILINGUAL AI

Our Future

We still have a long way to go to make our vision to become true. While we progress every day on our mission to deliver the best Multilingual Knowledge System available, enterprises are struggling with unstructured content. The lack of interoperability and multilingual capabilities is a significant hurdle for data-centric organizations.

Since LLMs are accessible for everybody, manufacturers are starting to recognize that language is as crucial an asset as the data entered into their ERP systems. Similarly, governments are beginning to understand the transformative potential of AI in accelerating digitalization and addressing workforce shortages due to demographic changes.

Coreon will do its part to make multilingual AI successful by providing the tools and know-how to complement LLMs with well curated domain and company-specific knowledge. With our language agnostic solution architectures enterprises will thrive and institutions deliver in this dynamic era of Generative AI.
