WASHINGTONIAN – InPress is half news aggregator, half matchmaker, linking users based on their shared media consumption. InPress is available only in Washington. CEO Adam Harder is a former journalist. InPress handpicks articles, and users rate them with emotions such as "excited" or "angry" and score how important and interesting the article was to them. Potential matches are based on an algorithm that takes into account similarities between users' reads and ratings. Then they swipe right and left for matches.
