Few details but sounds a little like what we've just launched at you.com?

Thanks. We'll look into both of these (plans and design).

by richardsocher 4y ago
If there's a lot of interest, we'd be happy to offer a monthly paid plan also. It's interesting. Only on HN do we hear users asking to pay for an otherwise free service. Majority of our users everywhere else would never pay f

Sorry, the model is not yet self-aware nor aware of you.com - We will feed it better information about ourselves soon. For now, you can read about all the answers on of FAQ site: https://about.you.com/ - which will soon get

Great idea! We'll look into that.

Yea, anybody can build a breakthrough app for you.com to show in the SERP: https://you.com/developers We hope to grow this new kind of search engine/portal together with the community and then incorporate chat+apps+lin

Hey, Yea. These are valid concerns. We care a lot about privacy and are making public statements and commitments to it. Technically any privacy-focused business (proton, ddg, etc) could pivot and change their mind but the hope is that by st

Richard from you.com here. We want to stay free and open to everyone so we will explore private ads (not user dependent, only based on query, not tracking, similar to DDG) and useful monetized apps like youWrite or youImagine (ie stable dif

Do you have ideas for how we can make the citations more likely to be used? It does seem like the biggest failure cases of chat are happening when we have not yet incorporated one of our apps (like weather or directions). Richard from YOU h

you.com CEO here. We let people give feedback on which major content blocks they want to see and soon will let developers add their own search-apps also. We believe in an open platform you can control, for the future of search.

you.com CEO here. We are seeing a lot of growth and retention with developers on https://you.com/code You can vote on which search-apps you like and soon block or pin them completely. You will also be able to submit your ow

We're growing a lot at you.com

by richardsocher 4y ago
I'm gonna throw you.com (i'm a co-founder) into that mix. We've been growing a lot and have a private mode that stores nothing at all. What audit would you suggest for us to prove that statement? It would be great to have a s

We've indexed billions of pages already at you.com to avoid this situation. The majority of our apps like Stackoverflow and Medium etc, we've indexed ourselves.

We've been working on many of these suggestions at you.com Giving users control over their search results is a big part of fighting SEO spam.

Good time to switch to a search engine that has code snippets, coding tutorials, AI code completion, AI blog writing, a useful yelp app, great privacy, gives control over the sources and apps I want to see and summarizes pros/cons for

Would love to hear from you if we succeeded with both at you.com - we've worked a bunch on these issues you outline.

by richardsocher 4y ago
That's why at you.com we made private mode accessible without any login. And we don't even do analytics and do not store your query in private mode. (richard, ceo of you.com here)

those "bangs" were a good idea so we got them also at you.com

Richard, CEO of you.com here. Love your two points. That's what we're doing! For 1) we have an open app platform that allows everybody to collaborate on that first entry of the web For 2) We let people decide the sources they want

CEO of you.com here. We decided that one way to avoid this long term is to let users decide on their favorite sources and apps. I have done a lot of research in AI and it can certainly do a lot of things implicitly but some oversight and ex

I love your post. I have to say that my experience is that many in the HN community are not nearly as kind as you. Folks here will rip you apart if you don't have everything figured out :( So, I started rolling out new features of our

Richard, CEO at you.com here. Users vote on their own preferences... not on other users' preferences. so i dont see how it will be gamed unless we start incorporating user preferences into global ones - which we would only do if we tho

by richardsocher 4y ago
That's our strategy at you.com - we start with the most popular sites, crawl them and build apps for them, eg. you.com/apps and let users vote in search results. Full disclosure: I'm the CEO.
