  Deep is the first global news platform that provides a trustworthy and personalized news experience. The Problem The world no longer trusts the news and outdated products can’t compete with social media for attention. With 2.5 billion active news readers around the world, any problem in the 'news system' has profound global consequences. We’ve seen these in the US (Trump), the UK (Brexit), and worldwide with vaccine skepticism and climate change denial. The Solution Deep provides a trustworthy and personalized news experience. Deep presents the most relevant stories on any topic and enriches them with different perspectives and background information. It prioritizes high-quality content and filters out clickbait. With that we’re solving the core problem — missing quality & trust — and are making the experience more engaging than any news product out there. Deep is powered by our proprietary AI which operates in all languages. The Vision We aim to become the global hub for news, with our proprietary NLP technology enabling us to efficiently tackle the Fake News problem at scale.

We reduce their risk profile and give them the chance them to propel themselves into the digital age with unique products.

The MATH 42 Technology — that has been developed for almost 7 years — will set the worldwide gold standard for mathematics.
