Content and tech go together
We love technology and enjoy finding new smart solutions. That's why we keep pooling our innovative strength, because: Journalism and technology belong together for us. Every day, our team of tech experts works on new state-of-the-art solutions that make our media unique. In doing so, we rely on concentrated in-house expertise, our own technologies and artificial intelligence.
Under one roof
How we work
Interdisciplinary
To get real innovations off the ground, you need freedom. That's what we offer, because here technology is developed independently by tech experts in interdisciplinary teams - close to the product and from front-end, back-end or web development to UX or QA.
Highly specialised
Our tech infrastructure is the foundation of our successful products. That's why centralised teams of experts ensure that everything runs smoothly. They keep the safety net together, guarantee our readers access to our content at all times and develop the cloud and CDN infrastructure for our organisation.
Maximum networking
Our tech community extends beyond national borders. More than 300 experts across Germany and at our development site in Bari (Italy) come together time and again, for example at our annual tech event "Burda.Product.Tech". Because great things are created together.

Insights into our Tech Products
Recommendation
What is the next best thing our reader should read - given personal interests, today's news journey and the current context? What should show up in their personal news stream? Our specially developed recommendation technology not only allows us to know our content inside out, but also to understand which articles are best suited to each type of user. This makes our solution far more effective than conventional approaches.
Content Technology Framework
The heart of our tech products does not come off the shelf. Our experts have developed the framework for all our brands and content in-house. With our central CMS, we not only remain independent, we can also use unique interfaces and map every individual use case.
Expert Chatbot
Direct advice in real time: our number 1 electric mobility portal EFAHRER.com shows how it's done. Based on more than 10,000 articles and information on hundreds of electric cars, our team has developed a chatbot that provides our users with expert and direct advice. Included: ChatGPT, other large language models and plenty of potential for specialized bots on all our portals.
