Leo understands funding events, product launches, and partnership announcements

Industries are changing at a faster pace than ever. Keeping up with new threats and opportunities can be overwhelming and time consuming.

Today, we are excited to announce a new Leo skill that lets you easily track key business events like funding events, product launches, or partnerships.

Here is a quick demo

Funding Events

We have trained Leo to detect and understand funding events. This means that you can now ask Leo to read your tech, business or industry specific feed and prioritize articles related to funding events – saving you a tremendous amount of time.

Product Launches

We have also trained Leo to detect and understand product launches.

This means that if you are part of a sales or sales enablement team, you can ask Leo to read TechCrunch or New York Times and notify you each time one of your customers or prospects launches a product. You can leverage that product launch event to create a warm approach and engage in a smart conversation.

Partnership Announcements

Finally, you can also easily prioritize the fraction of articles referencing partnership announcements.

Composable with other skills

The business event skill can be composed with all the other Leo skills allowing you, for example, to easily prioritize articles referencing a product launch (business event skill) and related to #artificial intelligence (topic skill).

Trained across 24 industries

Different industries use different vocabulary to describe these business events so we trained Leo across 24 different industries.

Continuously learning

You can use the Leo prompt or the “less like this” down arrow to correct Leo when the event detection is incorrect. This feedback is channeled to the Feedly ML team and to the datasets used to train Leo.

Available now

The Leo business event skill is available on Web and Mobile now for Feedly Teams users. Because we have been getting a lot of Leo requests from non-Team users, we will also be launching a $12/month Pro+ plan in October which will include Leo, a Twitter integration, and all other Pro features.

If you have feedback about the Leo business event skill, you are welcome to join the Feedly Lab slack channel.
