Summary

Linkurious is a graph visualization startup that helps organizations like NASA and the French Ministry of Finance analyze connections in their data to find hidden insights. The company's tool is used in various domains such as cybersecurity, anti-fraud, network management, and medical research where massive graphs are present, but business analysts struggle to extract valuable information from them. Linkurious was instrumental in the Panama Papers investigation, where a team of journalists used it to uncover suspicious connections in 11.5 million documents. The company's co-founder Jean Villedieu chose Neo4j as their primary graph database due to its leading position in the market and the expertise behind it. He has been impressed by the range of use cases for Linkurious, from anti-fraud and cybersecurity to knowledge management and medical research, where graph visualization can help find insights and solve complex data challenges. Jean Villedieu encourages Neo4j customers to reach out to Linkurious for assistance in turning their graph data into actionable insights.
