Omni is a Swedish news aggregator service developed by Schibsted. [1] It presents a continuous flow of news from Swedish and international media, social media, live broadcasts and press releases. Omni is available as an app on Android, iOS, and the Web. A subscription is required to read some articles. [2]

Schibsted released a beta version in March 2013 and the official app in November 2013. [3] [4]

History

The development of the service began in November 2011. [5]

In 2015, founders Markus Gustafsson and Ian Vännman were nominated for the Stora Journalistpriset annual award as "Innovator of the Year". [6]

In November 2017, the service Omni Ekonomi was released as an app. Omni Ekonomi has its own editorial staff that summarizes news from business media, and monitors market developments. [7] By June 2020, Omni Ekonomi was relaunched as a premium service and had entered collaboration with several international business media platforms, such as the Financial Times , The Economist , Bloomberg and Nikkei .

Omni introduced Omni mer in February 2022, an additional service that opens paywalls of certain international media, by paying for a monthly fee. Omni mer provides an explanatory background to specific news events. [2]

Technical platform

As of today, Omni's own in-house developed publishing platform is being used by several media platforms within the Schibsted media group, including Svenska Dagbladet , Aftonbladet , Verdens Gang and Aftenposten . [8]
