Expertise Finder
Expertise Finder inspects faculty contributions and maps them to areas of expertise, so you can discover experts and collaborators across your institution.
What It Does
1
Inspects faculty contributions (e.g., publications, grants, courses, service) and maps them to clear areas of expertise.
2
Surfaces researchers by topic, method, or keyword using plain-language discovery.
3
Visualizes connections across departments and schools to reveal collaboration opportunities.
4
Supports human review to adjust tags and profiles, with transparent mapping so you can see how expertise was derived.
5
Works within your institution’s data and permissions, respecting privacy and security.
Why It Matters
Accelerate collaboration and surface faculty strengths for planning, program development and partnerships. Reduce manual curation while maintaining quality, and build a living, searchable network that reflects current contributions.
Responsible Innovation for Faculty Data
Keeping You In Control
Our Expertise Finder keeps you in command: describe what you’re looking for, and get relevant expert matches in seconds. Each match shows supporting evidence (such as publications or grants) so you can validate, refine and expand your search before saving, sharing or reaching out.
Designed for Trust
Our approach prioritizes transparency, privacy, and verifiable security. We don’t use faculty data for AI model training, and data is never retained by our AI vendors. Access is role‑based and auditable; data is encrypted in transit and at rest; and our platform is SOC 2 Type II–compliant.
