The Wikimedia Foundation, which operates Wikipedia and other projects, on Tuesday launched a new endeavor dubbed Wikimedia Enterprise,
Wired reports. According to the foundation, the platform provides paid developer tools and serves that make it easier for companies and organizations to consume and re-use Wikimedia data.
Although the program is launching later in 2021,
Wired notes that conversations between the Wikimedia Foundation and major technology companies are already under way. The report doesn t specify which major tech firms are included in the discussions, but Apple and other technology giants currently use information from Wikipedia across their platforms. Apple, for example, uses the content in Spotlight search results and Siri responses.
