Frequently Asked Questions

Can it identify subsidiary relationships?

The API extracts organization mentions but does not automatically identify parent-subsidiary relationships. You would need additional data sources for corporate hierarchy information.

How does it handle brand vs company names?

Both brand names and company names are typically extracted as organizations. For example, "iPhone" might be extracted while "Apple" is also extracted separately.
