# Spotter Models

Spotter models identify entities based on predefined lists of terms (gazetteers). They are ideal for recognizing fixed categories like product names or locations.

# Dynamic Spotters

You can create a Spotter model directly from a node type. This ensures the model is always up-to-date with your graph data.

  1. Navigate to Management > Data.
  2. Select a node type (e.g., Device).
  3. Click Capture > New Spotter.
  4. Configure the field to use and the minimum character size.

# Manual Spotters

Alternatively, you can manually upload a list of known entities and their variations.

# Integration

Once created, don't forget to add your Spotter model to your NLP pipeline under the Pipelines using this model tab.
