Hello, It's really great, I can't wait to read more about this system (I am very interested in record linkage and entity linking) and especially to see it in action!
Concerning the name, I prefer tools with an explicit and self-describing name (QuickStatement, WikiFactMine...) rather than smart acronyms like SQID or Soweego. It looks like there are hundreds of them in the Wikidata ecosystem and we are no longer sure which one is doing what. It was just to give my 2 cents. Congratulations anyway!
