It sure does. If you currently have an FDMS bulk download, or a large collection emails in Lotus Notes or Microsoft Outlook and you suspect it has mass email campaign duplicates, you can now run the de-duplication and clustering algorithms inside PCAT. Here is an example:



Users of PCAT can relax the threshold for identifying duplicates and sample “clusters” of near-duplicate comments generated by form letter and talking point campaigns. This step makes it easier to both document the dimensions of the central “talking points” while also focusing attention on unique or otherwise unexpected contributions.

Why would I use this system? | Where do I get FDMS bulk downloads? | Does PCAT identify duplicates? | What is QDAP?
