BabelBird homepage and product entrance
The home page shows BabelBird’s overall positioning around enterprise network disk, AI knowledge base, privatized deployment and industry solutions.

Product positioning

BabelBird is not simply "uploading and downloading to the network disk". It is closer to an enterprise file operating system, covering the complete life cycle of files from creation, uploading, previewing, editing, synchronization, sharing, review, archiving to auditing. For privatized deployment customers, Babel can also be delivered in combination with enterprise organizational structure, unified identity authentication, object storage, intranet deployment, security policy, third-party system integration and exclusive AI knowledge base.

Main problems solved

  • Corporate files are scattered on personal computers, chat tools, mobile hard drives, email attachments and different systems, making it difficult to manage them uniformly.
  • File versions are repeatedly overwritten, and there is a lack of historical versions, change records, access records and traceable collaboration processes.
  • Data needs to be shared between departments, projects, and external partners, but downloading, outgoing, previewing, editing, and validity must be controllable.
  • There is a large amount of unstructured data such as pictures, drawings, contracts, scans, videos, and Office documents, and traditional directory retrieval is inefficient.
  • Enterprises want to use AI on their own documents and knowledge bases, but need to adhere to original permissions, security and privatization requirements.
