Linking semantic content and contacts
Starting point
For a new digital product, people were meant to find relevant content and contacts without knowing exactly what they were looking for.
How do interest-based content recommendations work?
During the project, an early AI-based interest-graph network and an anonymously usable interest space were built. The platform recognises thematic proximity between visited content and suggests further websites as well as contacts with similar interests.
Before the engine was handed on, the network reached almost 10,000 users.
