Grabbit Semantic Recommendation Engine Software Goes Open Source

Driven by Overwhelming Interest Grabbit Decides to Release the Platform to the Open-Source Communities.

SAN MATEO, CALIFORNIA – June 10, 2013– Grabbit, the developer of a new suite of cloud-hosted recommendation engine for news, people, and products is pleased to announce the release of the software to Github, a popular developer community.

"We feel developers have no ceiling with what they can do with the software," announced Lisa Padilla. "We chose Github as our initial location for the software." Padilla is also CEO of Communicate.io, a digital marketing agency in Silicon Valley. "The trend," she says "is really in unleashing the creativity. So many of our client battles center around convincing them that open and being giving with what your company has to offer freely is model we see work over and over again."

The recently announced partnership with Cognition’s revolutionary Semantic Natural Language Processing technology and Grabbit’s patent-pending system for making online recommendations of products, content, and people is a great head start. "We spent nearly two years on the product and have now determined a more streamlined way to build out a piece of the software ourselves. We want to share the whole code base with the developers and see what they come up with. We think they'll have a lot of fun with what's been built to date," said Lisa Padilla, CMO.
