AI that understands you: Personalization on you.com

You.com introduces Personalization with “Smart Learn” to offer a more tailored AI experience.

At you.com, we’re here to help you be more productive, creative, and inspired. That means building AI experiences tailored to your interests, expertise, and preferences. 

One of the challenges we observed with other conversational AI experiences is that they often miss the mark in providing the best, most relevant answers to your specific queries. Personalization at you.com is our solution to this problem.

You can access our Personalization feature by selecting your avatar at the bottom of the sidebar menu and then clicking Personalization. The details you add to the “about you” field include anything from your name and location to your hobbies and career.

Smart Learn

One of the standout features of Personalization is “Smart Learn.” As you interact more with our AI agent, it learns about your preferences and habits, providing increasingly better and tailored responses. It’s designed to respect your privacy, too, steering clear of sensitive topics like personal health queries.

Privacy-centric approach

We’re aware that personalization can raise privacy concerns. That’s why we designed this feature with a strong commitment to privacy and transparency.

When signed into your you.com account, whenever our system identifies a query that might include personal details about you and has the potential to enhance your future interactions, a special ✨ icon will appear. This is our way of maintaining transparency, letting you know that the system has remembered a personal fact.

Clicking on the Personalization icon will allow you to view your personalized profile and adjust as you see fit. Whether it’s editing a particular fact, deleting information, or even deactivating Personalization and Smart Learn features altogether, the control is in your hands. You can manage your Personalization experience anytime, ensuring your AI agent works for you.

 

Personalization in action

To help illustrate the power of Personalization, our CEO, Richard Socher, shared some relatable scenarios in the video above:

  • If you inquire about hiking trails and later ask for travel recommendations for Hawaii, you.com will remember your love for hiking and suggest relevant trails.
  • If you express interest in museums and later plan a trip to Paris, expect tips on the city’s best museums.
  • If you mention owning a Jeep and later need advice on changing tires, the agent will recall your vehicle type to provide accurate guidance.

Get started today

Initially, Personalization was a feature available only to YouPro members for early access. We’ve expanded its availability to all users, while YouPro members continue to benefit from an advanced version featuring a more comprehensive range of characters in their Personalization profiles.

This marks an exciting milestone, but this is just the beginning. The feature is currently in beta.
