Case Study: MarketWatch automates company and patent monitoring with Contify

MarketWatch automates tracking of 1,100+ companies with Contify

MarketWatch, a UK-based market research firm in the energy sector, was facing a significant challenge. They needed to monitor business updates and patent filings for over 1,000 companies, a process that was highly manual, labor-intensive, and costly. To automate this monitoring and allow their team to focus on analysis, they approached the vendor Contify for a solution.

Contify implemented its Market Intelligence Platform to deliver custom news feeds. The solution involved developing and maintaining specialized website scrapers for over 1,100 companies, refining algorithms to filter out irrelevant content, and creating a custom program to generate clear headlines and summaries for patent filings. As a result, MarketWatch successfully automated its tracking process. A testimonial from their CEO highlighted that Contify's service, which they have used for seven years, provides vital information for their clients' critical business decisions and contributes to their competitive effectiveness.
