Vizo News
Your World at a Glance. Next.

Vizo is a new platform that funnels busy mobile readers to articles and stories that interest them most. By providing eye-grabbing images, followed by a "Glance," which offers a 400-600 character summary of the article, Vizo allows readers to catch up on trending articles faster then ever before. It is our intention to drive our “on-the-go" consumers to their choice of publisher, when they want more information regarding the specific stories with which they are engaged. Having raised over $1 million in funding, Vizo's focus has shifted onto channeling readers to publishers, without overwhelming them with a complex mobile interface. The platform appeals to the "short-attention span," millennial generation and, having captured their interest, funnels them to their preferred news sources on any particular piece. Vizo will drive traffic to publishers after engaging readers and earning their undivided attention. Our latest partnership with Huawei in Israel, where Vizo will come preinstalled on all phones, has opened the door to an immediate user-base we can drive toward news sources.
