UK: New search engine True Knowledge to launch next phase
Posted by Katherine Thompson on July 31, 2008 at 10:54 AM
True Knowledge - the groundbreaking new search engine - announced today that it has received $4m (£2.02m) in funding today, which will enable it to develop its "answer engine".
True Knowledge relies on its own database of known facts, which the system then uses to compose an answer. Most search engines present a list of results based on keywords and phrases in the search terms.
Cambridge-based True Knowledge is complementary to traditional search because it operates as a more intelligent service that is capable of learning and assessing the information it delivers.
The site is in a private beta period with 10,000 testers and is preparing to launch publicly in the first half of next year.
