Dish.fm is a restaurant recommendation mobile app that identifies the "best dish" at a given location by performing sentiment analysis on public reviews and tips aggregated from Yelp, Foursquare and Instagram. The app counts extracted positive reviews as likes, and selects photos by analyzing photo likes and the poster's follower count to present candidate dish images. It emphasizes quick discovery and one-click liking rather than requiring users to create original content, replacing an earlier crowdsourced-photo approach. At launch it supports New York and San Francisco, offering about 100,000 photos and dish recommendations based on roughly 3 million reviews. The company plans near-term expansion to other U.S. markets including Los Angeles, Chicago and Boston and aims to scale to 100 million reviews by the first half of 2013. Dish.fm is based in Moscow, intends to keep development there while establishing a commercial, sales and marketing office in San Francisco, and is not currently monetized.
