The business Contents is entering is ever-expanding and we see this as a great opportunity. “ – says Massimiliano Squillace, CEO of Contents – “We believe it’s important to move beyond simply chasing trends. We want to promote creativity, we want it to be Contents’ vitality. Our product, based on the human in the loop concept, actually blends machine learning with human editing by expert copywriters. The only way for us to reach maximum quality is through the synergistic work of artificial intelligence and human skill.”

In 2020-2021 the company, with its headquarters in Milan, created and established its online platform, now available in four different languages: Italian, English, Spanish and French. Contents has also notably expanded its customer base, one third of which is foreign. Today it includes names like Lastminute Group, Netgear, Rolling Stones, Sky, Microsoft and Yahoo.
