Let your research
tell its story

Your research matters. But if it's hidden behind academic language, it may not reach the people who could benefit from it. YICCO helps you translate your findings into clear, compelling stories – so your work can have the impact it deserves.

The YICCO difference

YICCO stands for Your Information Clearly COmmunicated – and that's exactly what we do.

Most AI tools just simplify your text. We do something different: we help you find the story behind your science.

Scientific contentNarrative FlowStory that resonates

More than simplification

Other tools take your paper and make it "easier to read." But easier isn't the same as engaging. That's why we developed the Narrative Flow: a guided process that uncovers the human story within your research.

Your story, unlocked

Through thoughtful questions, we discover what drives you, why this research matters, and who needs to hear it. This transforms cold facts into warm narratives that truly connect with your audience.

Science that moves people

The result? Content that doesn't just inform – it resonates. Stories that make readers care, remember, and act. Because your research deserves to be felt, not just understood.

Your paper's journey to the public

Every great discovery deserves to be understood. Here's how YICCO transforms your scientific content into stories that matter.

Watch the magic happen

Our AI transforms your research into a warm, accessible interview: a 'quoted interview' where your story is told in your own words. It captures your voice, your passion, and the real-world impact of your findings. Your research stays accurate, but now it's also engaging and ready to connect with any audience.

You're in control

Your research, your voice, your final say. As you refine your content, our AI gives you instant feedback on your input – showing you whether your changes improve accessibility or not. Review and refine every word until it feels right. Want an extra pair of eyes? Our Human Check connects you with researchers who specialize in science communication – real scientists who understand your work because they've been in your shoes.

Share & make waves

Your research is ready for its close-up. The interview format is perfect for publishing on your university or research institution's website – giving your work the visibility it deserves. Share it with journalists who finally "get it." Send it to funders who see the vision. Watch as your work creates conversations, changes minds, and makes the impact it deserves.
