Founded in 2008, WebMynd was originally backed by Y Combinator and quickly launched a web history search and visualisation application.
Aggressive iteration has always been our method, and from there we've developed many search apps that give users control of their search experience.
After painstaking refinement of the user experience and with the help of partners like Digg and MySpace, we are now focused on helping publishers extract more value from their content.
Our product increases the advertising revenue per-user for website owners and builds brand engagement, while users benefit from an enriched, personalized web experience.«Less

| Description: | You promote a search sidebar browser add-on on your site. The add-on offers something of value to your audience — personalized searches enhanced with your content — and the install process takes less than ten seconds. Once the user installs the add-on, the sidebar appears on all their searches. Within the sidebar we show relevant search ads supplied by Yahoo. When a user clicks on those ads, you get the revenue. The result is that you've effectively swapped your remnant display ad impressions for ongoing revenue from relevant search advertising. |
