01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
Zenedy was a Y Combinator Winter 2010 startup from San Francisco, founded by brothers Dan Morin and Jeff Morin. Its online platform was built to showcase information about obscure topics from around the web: it determined algorithmically what content people were searching for, then identified which of it could be monetized through targeted advertising, publishing high-quality articles daily.
