User Interface News Aggregation

Inform is in the business of organizing, or structuring, massive amounts of unstructured data. Inform's vision is to expand the traditional realm of Internet news aggregators and search engines to revolutionize the user experience. Inform has assembled a worldwide team of mathematicians, computer and library scientists, linguists and taxonomists to solve the “news problem” of too many sources and insufficient structure.

To that end, the company has developed a Web-based platform that processes and translates all Internet content into its common semantic elements through the use of advanced algorithms. Through this process, Inform systematically tags and scores each component of the article, identifying every topic, industry, organization, person, place and product mentioned throughout the entire article. In technical terms, this process is called "meta-tagging," and the promise of consistent, automatic meta-tagging has been heralded by publishers as the Holy Grail of online information retrieval.
