ActiveNet is an enterprise software presented by Tacit Knowledge Systems that aims to facilitate collaboration between employees. It does this by automatically scanning communications and documents across an organization's network to identify keywords and information relevant to different teams and individuals. The software then provides features like people search, content sharing, and notifications to connect the right people working in related areas, without dictating how they should collaborate. It works best for large, diverse organizations where finding expertise across divisions can be challenging.
