About company
What we build
Engineering text analytics and web data platforms since the early 2000s
eTek Systems LLC grew out of a group of engineers who started in the early 2000s by developing websites, e‑commerce, logistics, CMS and CRM systems for companies in the US, Australia and the EU. Since 2004 the team has focused on long‑term, high‑load data platforms for demanding customers.
Over the years we have designed and implemented custom frameworks for distributed data mining and analysis, including multi‑host crawlers, hierarchical cluster engines and containers of NLP algorithms for batch processing of news and web texts.
Our solutions are used to process daily streams of news articles and social media messages, extract entities and topics, measure sentiment, detect trends and provide analysts with interactive visualizations and reports.
