"CATMA is a practical and intuitive tool for literary scholars, students and other parties with an interest in text analysis and literary research. By helping perform many of the procedures useful for literary analysis that normally have to be carried out entirely manually, CATMA permits to save a great amount of time and work. Being implemented as a web application in the newest version, CATMA also facilitates the exchange of analytical results via the internet, which makes collaborative work more comfortable."
