Company Description

Yones offers a news application with machine learning technologies that personalizes content based on the user's interests.

Yones is a news application that adapts to the user. Yones knows what the individual user is interested in, what they have already read, and anticipates what they would like to read in the future. This is made possible with technology based on machine learning. Every day, people spend several hours with media, especially reading the news. They consume information either online or printed, maybe as a subscription. Thanks to the Internet they have access to much more news sources than ever. At the same time, however, they are increasingly facing the problem of information overload. It is becoming more difficult and time-consuming to distinguish between what represents important information and what not. The Yones apps in Android, iOS and all web browsers reduce the daily news flood to the articles that the algorithms judge to be interesting to the reader. The users save time by getting the content they are interested in straight away, without being distracted by irrelevant information. Provided with information gathered from hundreds of different news sources they are more likely to find interesting articles which they would otherwise not have found in a reasonable amount of time.
