WikiWand
In 2013, Lior Grossman and Ilan Lewin founded Wikiwand, an AI-powered wiki aggregator aimed at enhancing how users access Wikipedia content. The company secured $600,000 in funding in 2014 for developing its interface, which addressed the need to update Wikipedia’s outdated design from ten years prior. Unlike Wikipedia, Wikiwand employs a commercial model that includes ads, while promising to donate a percentage of user contributions back to Wikipedia.
