Journalytics at JOTA

Best Digital News Start-Up winner at WAN-IFRA's 2018 LATAM Digital Media Awards and 2019 World Digital Media Awards, JOTA is a site specialized in the coverage of Brazilian governmental institutions. Its niche audience of 6,000 subscribers and 2,000 users in its JOTA PRO option, which provides strategic and tactical information for decision makers, is constantly growing. Its broad portfolio of informational products for individual users and corporate clients are one of the keys to its success. During DML19, Daniel Marcelino will share how they are managing to provide predictability to their audience and their premium customers by combining journalism and data science. In particular, he will explain the concept of Journalytics, through which they study data, analytics, emotions and journalistic exercise to develop a series of tools such as a legislative predictability index, an "aprovometer," a platform to predict taxes and a survey aggregator.
