The Qina engine is the industry's first curated and comprehensive database of the personalised nutrition marketplace.

The database can be easily navigated with advanced filters, or by using keywords. The database contains data such as technology, segment channel, features, business model and our proprietary Qina score. 

Each business listing contains a product description, publication links, company information and a Qina score. 

The Qina score is a proprietary score developed by our nutrition experts to quickly navigate and compare solutions in the industry. The Qina score aims to be a benchmark and considers a variety of categories known to influence the success or quality of Personalised nutrition solutions. The goal of the Qina score is build trust and transparency in Personalised nutrition solutions.

The latest on each business listing is our AI presenter, Nalah, who provides product description and review via a on-screen video.

The Qina engine is updated at least weekly, and contains over 700 solutions that are carefully curated, ranked and visualized by our in-house experts.

The Qina engine is our most popular service used by executives who need to understand the marketplace and ecosystem, by R & D professionals who are looking for partners, as well as by consultants and practitioners who are looking to save time to find information on available Personalized nutrition solutions.

QinaVer is our industry specific text analytics solution or Small Language Model (SLM). The QinaVer solution uses natural language processing (NLP) to identify hidden patterns and trends in our expert- created library content.

QinaVer consist of a repository made up of our own Qina content as well as publicly available resources that are relevant to the industry.

Based on our domain expertise, we have trained the machine learning algorithm to identify specific keywords and phrases.

With text analytics you can identify trends and patterns across different resources by category. For example want to know which biomarkers are trending? or which conditions are mentioned the most, or even which brands got the most coverage over the past 6 months or who received the most funding? this can be easily done on QinaVer.

QinaVer is the ONLY industry-specific text-analytics tool at the moment, and makes finding information easy, by wordcloud, category or keyword.

Plus all outputs such as graphics can be downloaded, ready to be included in presentations.

Each response is fully linked back to the original source inside the Qina repository which can include newsletters, video recording, reports, presentations etc.

We have ZERO hallucinations as the data repository has been curated by our in-house experts. However, the repository is industry-specific and cannot suggest a cure for cancer or solve your business woes.

For the very tech savvy, QinaVer can also be used to identify hidden patterns and trends in qualitative unstructured data such as interviews, focus groups and transcripts using NLP. This nifty tool can save hours of time and is a useful tool in combination with domain experts to reduce bias. 

The Qina chat is a feature that leverages ChatGPT technology. Ask any question our repository and the Qina chat feature can provide industry-specific answers that are fully referenced with ZERO hallucinations.

The chat function draws from our expert-curated content which means the answers will be more accurate and specific to your use-case in Personalised nutrition.

Content in the Qina repository is continuously updated to provide the most relevant answers.

The chat feature is available on a desktop and mobile. and soon will be available on each business listing to ask your company specific questions right while it is on your mind!
