Discover My Network, a Los Angeles based startup, offers a revolutionary new way to discover media through reputation based recommendations.
Through pioneering new technology that employs the concept of “reputation” as the basis of their recommender, DMN has come up with an exclusive HumanNet Discovery Engine transforming the audience's ongoing attention data into compelling, personalized discovery for every visitor.
“As a whole, I don't consider crowds as wise, yet there are undoubtedly wise people hidden in the crowd" says Gary Manfredi, CEO of Discover My Network. "Our technology creates a network of maven recommenders uniquely for each user to provide maven-qualified recommendations -- above and beyond popularity or similarity. An album could become someone's favorite based on a single vote by one highly reputable person. Personal mavens are key to discovering unique and engaging media."
Discover My Network's technology works for any type of media and is significantly less expensive than other solutions because it is fully automatic and requires no manual "tuning". This is achieved by DMN’s state-of-the-art machine learning infrastructure which continuously learns from all user actions to build an ideal recommending network for every user.
The company built a proof of the technology at DiscoverMyMuse.com. Using Amazon Web Services, they crunched 1.8 million Amazon user reviews on over 550,000 MP3 Albums to serve up recommendations that are compelling, unique, and fresh. The Discover My Muse application is a well-designed, Ajax powered application that is responsive and fun to use.
