No such thing as "unstructured data"
"Your search for last year's revenue returned the first 20 of 2000 possible results".

Companies actually want accurate, consistent data that they can trust, make judgements based this data and report this data accurately to shareholders.

There is no such thing as "unstructured data", data without structure is noise. If your company is already in a big mess you need to sort it out yourself, corporate search won't help.
