UX problem:
Knowledge workers need a tool that will help them easily capture the most relevant content they seek to achieve understanding and expertise in their field.
What if?
...we could capture the browsing history of a knowledge worker, figure out which articles were the most contextually relevant based on their stated learning topic, and then find all the best, high quality content on the internet that matches in relevance?
What did we do?
We interviewed many knowledge workers about their research methodologies, investigated cutting edge, organically inspired programming technologies, built out user scenarios, designed a user experience and product IA, and solved the hardest part first; create a working prototype of the contextual analysis code.
What were the results?
A patent pending technology built upon Hierarchical Dynamic Self Organizing Maps(HDSOM) that will revolutionize the way knowledge workers consume content and conduct research online. Sailminder is an early stage startup company currently in a seed fundraising round while we develop our beta application to be available soon.
