Accio is a web-based search tool for Software teams that helps boost productivity and promote knowledge sharing.
This all started when we built this tool to help our fellow software project team members. All around us we saw that that software development/support teams, had to access a minimum of FIVE SYSTEMS to get their job done. Defects/Issue Systems, Document Systems, Source Code Systems, Emails etc. Consequently, they were spending significant amount of time searching for information, and not actually getting their work done.
Accio provides a single window access across all these systems. It also uses orders the search results based on the role of the searcher.
Accio is currently available as an on-premise installation. You can download, configure and start searching in a matter of hours.
- dsr_ 8y agoDo you have an intellectual property license from JK Rowling, or are you hoping to be lawyer-profitable by the time it's noticed?
- slowmovintarget 8y ago:) Pretty sure the Romans have prior art: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/accio https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/accio
- rajesh_kumar 8y ago:). No IP from JK Rowling. Just a huge fan of Harry Potter. And not making enough money to afford a lawyer! Thought the name was relevant for a search engine. I specifically did not mention Harry Potter in the website to avoid such a scenario. You still think I am treading dangerous waters here? Maybe I should knock-off/rephrase the section from my website.
- legostormtroopr 8y agoIANAL, but I’d be careful. I’m not a Harry Potter fan, but even that was my first thought. Even if it’s based on Roman word, the prevalence of Harry Potter and Accio as a summoning (aka search and retrieval) spell may be enough to get Warner Bros involved.
