Smashing, the reading curation app by Goodreads’ founder, shuts down


Creating an app dedicated to help me combine and read news, articles and social media posts in one place is probably a difficult offer today. Smashing, an AI-driven app that allows users to correct the news and posts that the news and posts want to be corrected, it is closing, probably due to inability to scale enough quickly.

“We did not just grow enough to continue. We were not able to scale it as a sustainable product,” the company said in an email to announce the closure of customers.

The founder of Goodides, Otis Chandler launched smashing last June, which aims to use AI and community to correct news articles, blog posts, podcasts and social media posts around the web. The app votes in the proposed content to submit content, submit content and indicate relevance to users. It had an AI-driven summary and a bot that could answer the question.

The company says in the email that seven employees are working on the product. Smashing raised $ 3.4 million dollars from investors in the smashing, blockchanges, offline ventures, advance capital, N Venture’s power and several angels investors.

Thanks, lots of startups are working to mention the problem for solving the problem. We have AI-driven news readers like bulletin and particles, as well as feed agigator applications like feed, tapestry and reader-to pick up a few.

Smashing Closer comes after Instagram co-founders stop them AI-driven News App Artifact last year And in the end the technology sells to Yahoo.
