Description

Alike is a mobile app that allows users to find and explore restaurants, bars, and cafes in their vicinity that match their preferences. By simply entering the name of a favorite place, the app suggests similar options based on user preferences and location. The recommendations are ranked based on their similarity to the user's search queries. Users can also see the distance to each place and provide feedback on whether they believe one place is similar to another. Alike was acquired by Yahoo in February 2013 as part of their acquisition of Propeld.
