Microsoft Syntex: content AI
Microsoft Syntex is content AI integrated into the workflow. It prioritizes people and delivers content that seamlessly integrates with collaboration and workflows, so content stops being a cost and becomes an advantage. Syntex reads, tags, and automatically indexes large volumes of content and connects them where needed, in searches, in applications, and as reusable knowledge. Manage your content throughout its lifecycle with robust analytics, security, and automated retention.
Content AI with Syntex can help you whether you're focused on customer transactions, invoice processing, or drafting a contract that requires a signature, or if you're trying to understand the avalanche of unstructured content.
Let's see how Syntex helps you improve, manage, and connect your content at scale.
Improve
Syntex's no-code AI improves your content to help you understand and structure information, simplifying your business workflows. Whether you work with highly structured content like forms or content with a lot of text like contracts, you can create models that understand your content as you do. Syntex extends AI capabilities, such as summarization and translations, to Microsoft 365 applications you already use, allowing you to engage them in the workflow.
Document Processing
Syntex helps you understand, tag, and protect information, integrating Microsoft Azure AI, AI Builder, and other Microsoft sources. Syntex structures your content as part of our intelligent document processing approach. Your content can be easily classified, tagged with extracted data, and protected with sensitivity and retention labels. These labels and taxonomy labels integrate into Microsoft Viva Topics to seamlessly turn content into knowledge. Document processing is already available.
Translation
With businesses spanning many countries and cultures, Syntex allows you to translate content between dozens of languages.

Summary
So you can focus on what's important and requires action, Syntex uses AI to generate content summaries to extract key points, on demand or through rules.
Content Assembly
When you're ready to create a new contract, invoice, letter, or other type of document, Syntex can help you automatically generate the document with templates and metadata through content assembly, which is already available.
Image, Audio, and Video Processing
Images are one of the most common file types in Microsoft 365. You can process and tag images with nearly 10,000 automatically recognized "out-of-the-box" objects. You'll be able to automatically extract text from images in SharePoint and Exchange using optical character recognition (OCR) to optimize searches and compliance.
Digital media is a very important part of modern content, which is why we're offering audio and video transcription as part of Syntex. Text extraction from audio, especially in meetings, is essential for searches and compliance, and we're leveraging Microsoft Stream innovations to automatically generate video transcriptions in twenty-eight languages and regional configurations.
Connect
Syntex is designed to connect your content, as well as help you discover and reuse content through AI-powered search, electronic signature, and integration into business workflows, such as invoice and contract management.
Electronic signature
Enriching content is a key factor in helping you discover it and reuse it in applications and business processes. One of the fastest-growing content transactions is electronic signature. You can send electronic signature requests using Syntex, Adobe Acrobat Sign, DocuSign, or any other electronic signature partner solution, and your content will remain in Microsoft 365 while it's being reviewed and signed.

Search
Syntex also incorporates the power of Microsoft Search into content AI. As part of Syntex, Microsoft Search is even more effective thanks to innovative deep learning models that encompass semantic understanding, question answering, and natural language processing to help you discover information intuitively.

These new investments in Microsoft Search with Syntex will be available in 2023 and include:
- Natural language queries that allow specific questions like "Show me sales presentations in California from last year for Contoso Electronics."
- Semantic search allows searching by concept, not keyword, improving relevance.
- Employees May Ask expands your search and explores answers to related questions, leveraging Microsoft AI that automatically generates question-and-answer pairs.
Syntex leverages Microsoft Search to offer enhanced ways to query, model, and discover content and data embedded in files. You can use content queries based on forms to easily return to any specific document. Next year, Syntex will allow saving, sharing, and managing queries for you and your teams.
Annotation
You can use annotations such as pen input, notes, redactions, stamps, and comments, or any content (not just Office documents) without needing to modify the original files, so you can preserve original records of critical business processes.
