UBS Planet Art

The World's First AI-Powered Art News Service

Planet Art is a smart news reader app and guide for the art world. 
Bringing together art news, reviews, and inspiration, the app offers resourceful information for collectors, enthusiasts, and influencers worldwide. Unlike popular newsreaders and content aggregators featuring general art topics, Planet Art focuses on news and information from the world of contemporary art. It uses a custom-built machine learning algorithm to deliver only the most relevant news stories and trends straight to your smartphone.
Intelligent at Heart
Planet Art is powered by a machine learning system that was developed with input from art experts, art advisors, and curators from some of the leading art institutions across the world, such as the Guggenheim. 
It uses data algorithms to access and analyze millions of keywords​ and thousands of online news sources every day. Using quantitative criteria such as recency, frequency, author, publication, and qualitative insights such as relevance and tonality, it surfaces the most highly ranked quality content for its readers. 

Access to Art Trends
Planet Art's powerful machine learning system also recognizes patterns and movements in the art world, curating real-time trend lists for top artists, cities, and art institutions or galleries. For the very first time, users can get a macro view of what's happening across the world. To learn more, they simply need to tap a trend and access related content. 
Partnership 
Planet Art's unique data insights and engine used to power the year in art review with Artsy.
For the next versions in our roadmap, we have planned to turn it into a service product from UBS. The art news will be more personalized into convenient formats like a 1-minute video or podcast for our busy readers. AI-powered art advisor and a partnership with ArtBasel can provide broader services to the readers, and eventually connect with other UBS financial services.
