About us
ChatEurope is the first chatbot dedicated to European news. Launched by 15 European partners, this project includes a unique news platform, an integrated chatbot and social media channels.
Led by Agence France-Presse, the media consortium behind this project brings together prominent names in European journalism : the German and French broadcasters Deutsche Welle and France Médias Monde; the Romanian radio RFI Romania; the German and Italian news agencies dpa and Ansa; the Polish press group Agora; the Spanish non-profit foundation fighting against disinformation Maldita.es; the Spanish daily El Pais, and the online media outlet specialized in Southeast Europe OBCT.
At the heart of this innovative project, the chatbot was developed by the Romanian company DRUID AI and operates using the language model of the French company Mistral.
As the technical partner of the project, Xwiki developed the news platform. Dpa and AFP subsidiaries, news aktuell and MediaConnect, are in charge of the communication.
ChatEurope is co-funded by the European Commission and enjoys complete editorial independence, a key to its credibility.
