Another AI search engine was born: Exa AI. The company recently announced a $17 million Series A funding round, led by Lightspeed, with Nvidia’s NVentures and Y Combinator participating.
Unlike other AI-driven search engines designed to replace Google, Exa’s goal is to create a search tool specifically designed for AI.
Exa’s mission:
The Internet contains human collective knowledge, but the current search experience is more like navigating in a garbage dump than roaming in a knowledge library. The core problem is that Internet knowledge is buried by a large amount of information.
Exa’s mission is to organize the world’s knowledge, filter information and extract real knowledge through better search algorithms.
AI builds search, not humans
Exa is a very noteworthy company. It positions itself as a search engine built for AI, rather than building a new search engine for humans, that is, Google for AI. Founders Jeff Wang and Will Bryk think that Google has done for humans, and they hope to do similar things for AI through Exa.
They believe that it is not that humans urgently need a new type of search engine. On the contrary, as AI becomes increasingly popular in corporate and consumer lives, AI will search the Internet more than humans. AI must regularly search for information on the Internet and return the truth. answer. But search engines like Google are aimed at humans, so Exa is the first search engine built for AI.
Exa was previously called Metaphor. I started to pay attention to this product in January and will use it in conjunction with Perplexity. In terms of search accuracy, it can be said that it has improved at least one order of magnitude compared to Google. Almost all of your search results are directly related to the keywords you provide, so you use it more often as a research tool.
For example, if you search for Notion’s competitors, it will search for you all products related to Notion; if you search for “SF’s company building future hardware”, it will give you a lot of specific company names and websites. You can quickly obtain valuable information through similar searches.
In terms of search settings, you can continue to focus, such as searching for companies, news, papers, tweets or blogs, etc., so that the results will be more accurate. Therefore, Exa was used most at the beginning by some developers and companies.
Exa said on its official blog that thousands of companies and developers have integrated with Exa, and its revenue has tripled in the past few months. Many VCs use it to help them search for investment targets, and Databricks is a big customer of Exa.
