Powerset, a San Francisco-based company announced the public launch of its new search engine - Powerset. Powerset's first product is a search and discovery experience for Wikipedia. Powerset's technology improves the entire search process. In the search box, you can express yourself in keywords, phrases, or simple questions. On the search results page, Powerset gives more accurate results, often answering questions directly, and aggregates information from across multiple articles. Finally, Powerset's technology follows you into enhanced Wikipedia articles, giving you a better way to quickly digest and navigate content.
Powerset's goal is to change the way people interact with technology by
enabling computers to understand our language. Powerset is first applying its natural language processing to search, aiming to improve the way we find information by
unlocking the meaning encoded in ordinary human language. Instead of being limited to keywords, Powerset allows you to enter keywords, phrases, or questions. Instead of just showing you a list of blue links, Powerset gives you more accurate search results, often answering questions directly, and aggregates information from across multiple articles.
Finally, instead of leaving you at the search page, Powerset's technology follows you into enhanced Wikipedia articles, giving you a better way to digest and navigate content quickly.
