Our Vision

Editorial newsrooms are under growing strain. Revenue has declined sharply over the past decades.

Our vision is to help newsrooms increase their productivity and competitiveness while preserving journalistic quality and integrity.

Sheer volume, presence and customized clickbait threaten to overwhelm editorial journalism with falsehoods and fabricated narratives challenging editorial newsrooms.

Open Mind is dedicated to supporting journalists in this challenge by equipping them with AI tools to remain competitive.
