Software:Yones
Yones (derived from “Your News”) is a daily news application for web browsers, Android and iOS devices,[1] published by the Yones GbR located in Munich. The application helps users to find a way to deal with the large amount of content in news media. It provides readers with a personalized selection of news from different internet platforms, defined by their interests and using habits.[2] The news feed is assembled by articles of news providers such as Spiegel-Online, sueddeutsche.de, tagesschau.de, welt.de and many others. Yones is offered in English and German language.
Technical background
The founders are supported by an intelligence system, called FaDIRa which was developed by the team in 2012. This AI-based system is able to learn and to recognize on the basis of many newspaper articles, what user prefers and what not.[3]
