Melissa, a leading provider of global address, name, email, phone, and identity verification solutions, announced several enhancements to Unison, its customer data verification platform.

“Our existing MatchUp deduplication software is known for its unparalleled deterministic and probabilistic data matching capabilities, however the process for creating these matching projects can become quite involved and complex, especially for novice users,” said Bud Walker, Vice President Enterprise Sales and Strategy, Melissa. “So, in Unison, we created specialized AI that automatically determines the most optimized approach for the dedupe process, as it is able to understand the data you work with and what’s needed for matching.”

The wizard-based interface operates in conjunction with Unison’s ability to match across multiple data sets, in varying formats, at once in a single matching project. In addition, Unison offers a unique fuzzy matching score, essentially providing a threshold value for two names to be considered duplicates. Users can experiment with scoring and set a higher or lower value depending on requirements.
