It is not clear if this is really a Semantic Web app

1. Does it allow OWL/RDF import/exports? Can I bring in my "linked data" schemas into Silk?

2. Is there any ontology reasoning support in search?

1. Our read/write API allows you to get any existing data set into Silk. We have various importers available. No OWL/RDF at this time, but that may very well be developed by ourselves or our developer eco-system in the future.

2. Silk has a powerful query engine that allows quite complex reasoning. Part of that is already exposed in the product, through our search bar and the so called "explore mode". We have no UI yet for the more complex queries, but those can be performed through our API.
