BRAINHAT
UNVEILS DYNAMIC VOICE XML/WEB SERVER
BUILT ON NATURAL LANGUAGE OPERATING SYSTEM
Companies
Can Now Easily Provide Dynamically Served Content, Increasing
User Flexibility and Improving Customer Relationships with
Fewer Programming Hassles
EAST HARTFORD, Conn. (October 24, 2001) -
Brainhat Corporation today announced the Brainhat Voice XML/Web
Server, which interprets natural language requests and provides
dynamic delivery of content, significantly enhancing user
interactions with web sites and changing the web programming
paradigm. The Brainhat Voice XML/Web Server is built on the
Brainhat Operating System, a natural language OS that can
be programmed in English
"Our Voice XML/Web Server solution is the first in a
series of products based on our OS that gives programmers
the ability to express commands in natural language rather
than algorithms and gives systems the power to understand
and reason in English," said Brainhat President Kevin
Dowd, "This gives companies the ability to provide changing
intelligent content delivery that improves their customer
relationships."
New Voice XML/Web Server Transforms Human Interaction with
Machines
Typically, Voice XML and HTML documents are served by a simple
HTTP server that merely fetches and forwards documents and
does not interpret requests. Like a basic HTTP server, the
Brainhat Voice XML/Web Server can fetch documents. But it
can do much more.
Brainhat's Voice XML/Web server programming starts with a
collection of web pages and an English description of how
the pages are related. Brainhat will engage the user in a
conversation, dynamically serving pertinent pages and dialog
as the conversation progresses. This provides a more human
touch to web page navigation. Pages may be manually linked,
as they are on a typical web site, however this is not a requirement.
For example, consider a user who is interested in finding
information about sweaters. The Brainhat server can return
specific pages about sweaters, showing the user a variety
of sweaters from which to choose. Or, with its natural language,
intelligent approach, the Brainhat server can generate content
that asks questions to refine the users' needs, such as, "What
material sweater do you want?" and/or "What color
sweater do you want?"
"This natural language approach enables us to dramatically
improve a user's ability to interact with a company, raising
the bar in artificial intelligence," Dowd said.
Specifications and Availability: Brainhat Voice XML/Web Server
& OS
The Brainhat OS is now available for download at www.brainhat.com
or by calling (860) 610-0606. Brainhat Corporation will

interfaces for their application.
The Brainhat Operating System supports Linux and Windows
98/NT/2000. It comes with clients that support SAPI and other
3rd party APIs. It also supports VoiceXML, a standard that
extends HTML to permit online voice interaction, and includes
an API that supports extensions permitting interaction with
robots and other external processes.. In addition to supporting
Voice XML, a standard that extends HTML to permit online voice
interaction, the OS includes an API that supports extensions
permitting interaction with robots and other external processes.
