Dish.fm Relaunches Its Foodspotting Competitor To Make “Best Dish” Recommendations Using Reviews From Yelp, Foursquare And Instagram
Dish.fm is a new restaurant recommendation mobile application, launching today, which focuses on helping users find the best dishes at their local eateries. Initially, the company had gone the Foodspotting route, having debuted an early version of the app this summer which relied on crowd-sourcing techniques to fill its database with photos and reviews. But just a month after the app went live in the App Store, the company knew it had to revamp. Today’s app scraps that earlier approach, and now generates its “best dish” recommendations using sentiment analysis technology, not original user-generated content.
