It looks like the entire site changed for this announcement, and now it's not much more than the announcement. Prior to that change there was a lot more information about the products Meta offers. They were building a number of products powered by some machine learning built on top of academic papers. There was the consumer-oriented tool for paper recommendations targeted at academic researchers. Then an "impact prediction" tool that was designed to try to forecast the importance of a new manuscript, which was marketed to academic journal publishers and private industry (like R&D departments of pharma companies). And then there was what they called "Horizon Scanning", which is another prediction tool to try to forecast which areas of research or scientific methods/techniques were going to be rising in popularity/importance over the coming years (ie try to identify CRISPR a few years before it blows up), also mostly targeting private R&D firms but also grant-funding bodies, gov't entities, etc.
Post CZI acquisition I bet they're doing a full revamp of what they're bringing to market, so I guess they're just pulling all the content down first before they figure out how to rebrand.
