A paid, ad-free search engine that answers to its users
Subscriptions replace advertising, so there are no sponsored results, affiliate links, or data sales influencing what you see.
Rank any website up or down, pin favorites, or block domains entirely so your results match your own standards.
Append a question mark to get an AI answer above the results, or chat with the Assistant for deeper tasks with sources included.
Restrict searches to categories like forums or news, or jump straight into a specific site's own search with shortcuts.
Search, discovery and RAG infrastructure for your product
Combine keyword and vector search so results stay relevant for both exact queries and semantic intent.
Manage documents, chunking and embeddings within the platform instead of building a pipeline from scratch.
Add retrieval-augmented chat over your own content for assistants and knowledge bases.
Inspect search quality with analytics, then tune ranking and relevance based on real queries.
