Zync has developed a prediction algorithm that enables users to pull in recommendations based on personal taste. Being that it's difficult to sift through recommendations for large cities, Zync takes into account personal tastes and the opinions of people you trust in order to model search results.

Zync has currently only opened up only for Boston based results.
