Entities

Entities shows people, places and organisations that were extracted twice under different names, so you can merge them.

  • High confidence pairs are backed by evidence, such as “Example Ltd” and “Example Limited”, or an address that matches a contact. These are safe to merge.
  • Needs your eye pairs only look alike by name. Check them first.
  • Click Merge to fold one into the other, or Not a duplicate to stop seeing that pair.

A duplicate splits someone’s history in two, so “what do I know about Sam?” misses half the answer.

Assistant

  • “What do I know about Example Ltd?”
  • “How is Sam connected to the pump project?”

The assistant can read entities and their links. It cannot merge them. Merging happens only on this screen.

Technical

  • A merge moves every fact and link to the kept entity, adds the other name as an alias and deletes the duplicate, in one step. It cannot be undone.
  • Dismissed pairs are remembered and not suggested again.
  • Tools: entity_search, entity_facts, entity_mentions, entity_neighbors, graph_path.
