The company was founded on the philosophy of developing all strategic, creative, and technical capabilities to an equal degree, and a culture of mutual respect, high customer service, and strong ethics.

Inform Technologies - www.inform.com

Inform’s technology platform works like an editorial team: It continually teaches itself how information is related and automatically updates links and topics as the context changes. For example, the software is capable of learning that "Sooner" means something different in Oklahoma than elsewhere, and can then create Sooner-specific Oklahoma football pages. The resulting links are both deep and meaningful, and help transform a website from a series of static pages into a dynamic, "living" information hub that remains up-to-date in response to breaking news, developing trends and readers’ changing interests. Importantly, pages that Inform generates automatically will appear in searches, driving more readers to the site.

Inform's Connected Content Solution™ and Essential Technology Platform™ are used by major media brands including WashingtonPost.Newsweek Interactive, Crain’s, IDG, Conde Nast, The New York Observer, The New York Sun and over 50 others. Inform was founded in 2004.
