AI-Powered Search Feature Now Available on MDCS-Cloud
Thank you for your continued support.
We are pleased to announce the launch of a new AI-powered RAG (Retrieval-Augmented
Generation) feature on MDCS-Cloud, our cloud-based ISM document management system.
With this update, all Safety Management System (SMS) documents uploaded to MDCS-Cloud
are automatically processed by an advanced AI engine (powered by Google Gemini).
No setup or manual training is required. Users can simply click the new "AI" button to open the
AI-Chatbot window and start asking questions immediately.
Key Features
(1) Conversational Search: Submit queries in natural, everyday language.
(e.g., Asking "Is drinking allowed on board?")
(2) Traceable Answers: Responses automatically cite the specific SMS document numbers for
quick verification.
(3) Cross-Language Support: Ask questions and receive answers in your preferred language
(e.g., Japanese or Chinese or other languages) even if the source document is in English.
(4) Smart Intent Matching: Understands context rather than simple keyword matching.
(e.g., Asking "How to refuel at sea?" will retrieve relevant information from the "Bunkering Procedure")
(5) Scenario-Based Guidance: Generates practical solutions by understanding complex
operational scenarios.
(e.g., Asking "ECDIS screen looks weird. Is it a virus? What should I do?". The AI-Chatbot
would provide step-by-step guidance during a suspected cyber incident on board.)
This AI feature is already active and available to all current MDCS-Cloud users.
We invite you to try it out today.
Thank you for the support.
