Wikiwand, a software that can change the Wikipedia entry interface, was created by Leo Grossman and Elan Levin in 2013 and was officially launched in August 2014.

The software interface contains toolbar menus, navigation bars, personalized links for other language versions, new layouts, and previews of link entries. The content list will continue to show on the left that Grossman developed the software to overcome the dissatisfaction given to him by Wikipedia. He once thought that "the fifth most popular website in the world, which is used by 500 million people, has no meaning to us." the interface of the site has not been updated for more than a decade. We found Wikipedia's interface cluttered, difficult to read (small text boxes are too large), difficult to navigate, and lack of usability).

Wikiwand raised $600000 to support the development of improved interfaces. This interface can be used for Chrome, Safari and Firefox, as well as Wikiwand websites. The company hopes to make a profit by integrating advertisements for textbooks, articles and courses. The project says it intends to donate 30% of its profits to the Wikimedia Foundation.
