A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I was one of Neeva's die hard users. I was bummed but not surprised when they emailed out saying they were pivoting to AI.
I used them for a while as well. Their search was good, and their auto-generated answers they provided was very decent. I loved the idea of non-ad supported search. For me, their problem was their value proposition. You could use search for free, but you have to pay them if you want them to index your github/dropbox/etc accounts, so they could be searchable from the same searchbox. I had no need to have any private accounts searched, so never needed those licensed features.
what is your go to for search now?
I've been using Duck Duck Go, but I mainly use it because bangs make it easy to search elsewhere when DDG isn't surfacing useful stuff. So I don't entirely endorse it.
