Ownbeat have been hard at work designing the new user-interface for political monitoring platform Yatterbox.

“It’s really been about us finding out how we can visualise all the data that Yatterbox get in,” says director Kieran Hazell. “First and foremost, they’ve got lots of social media streams coming through, so the challenge for us was to design a custom feed for all of that, and then find a way to visualise the data. Once the next version comes out, we’ll be looking to extend this further.”

Yatterbox has now launched it’s commercial offer and the platform will be previewed at this year’s party conferences (for the three main parties) as topics are discussed, the platform will dynamically pull through social media streams from politicians in real time . “It’s exciting for us to know that our work will be on display at such high profile events! To play a small part in some of the stuff that Yatterbox are doing with political monitoring and real-time data is great – we can’t wait to get working on future developments!”
