2. Elevator Pitch
“Relatable is for online news readers who are dissatisfied with using
search engines to find multiple sources on a topic. Our product is a new
Chrome extension that quickly and easily provides related articles to
online news readers. Unlike current recommendation tools, our product
filters irrelevant information and suggests articles from various news
sites.”

Shortcoming Solution

ourselves
Some articles are from less well-known sites Display articles from well-known sites first
Users doesn’t have control over the
