Concept Insights - The Concept Insights service links documents that you provide with a pre-existing graph of concepts based on Wikipedia (e.g. 'Cognitive Systems', 'Solar Energy', etc.). Users of this service can also search for documents that are relevant to a concept or collection of concepts by exploring concepts that are explicitly contained in your queries or are implicitly referenced through related concepts. More about this service here.

Personality Insights - The Watson Personality Insights service uses linguistic analytics to extract a spectrum of cognitive and social characteristics from the text data that a person generates through blogs, tweets, forum posts, and more. More about this service here.
