Yahoo has acquired social-media data visualiser Vizify, it will turn your social media data into interactive infographics, videos, and more.After the acquisition Vizify will be shutting down the product as the team joins Yahoo.
“As our conversations progressed, we realized we’d found a partner who shared our passion for user experience, design, and visualizing information,” Vizify said. “Ultimately, we just couldn’t say no to the opportunity to bring our vision to the hundreds of millions of people who use Yahoo every day.”
Vizify will be following these steps for transition:
- Those of you with a current paid plan, we’ll be issuing a full refund for everything you’ve paid Vizify.
- Premium customers who registered a domain through Vizify (like your-name.com), we’ll be providing instructions so you can assume ownership of your domain, free of charge.
- All bioholders, free and paid, we’ll be providing a way for you to opt-in to “archive” a snapshot of your current bio that will remain live at the same URL through September 4, 2014.
If you visit the company’s URL, Vizify’s sky-blue logo and color scheme quickly turn Yahoo purple .
Vizify is Founded by Todd Silverstein, Eli Tucker, and Jeff Cutler-Stamm in 2011
