About US

Syl. Find simplicity.

TEAM IM is a New Zealand-based developer of Syl Enterprise Search technologies and solutions with a goal to deliver 'Information Intelligence' - the ability for companies to easily find, access and extract value, meaning and learning from information, and make well-informed decisions for the benefit of their customers and their business.

We do this with a powerful platform of enterprise semantic technology designed to provide an array of outcomes such as search, discovery, cataloguing and reporting of unstructured information.

Our clients include high profile public and private sector organisations that use Syl to manage large, complex information repositories and sensitive information.
