Quintura Search offers “One-Click Search”™, helps find the relevant information on the Web easier and faster
Alexandria, VA, November 15, 2005 – Quintura Inc. (www.quintura.com), the next-generation web search company, today announced the release of its revolutionary web search software, Quintura Search 1.0 beta that helps a user find the relevant information on the Web easier and faster.
Today’s standard keyword search on the Internet offered by Google, Yahoo! and MSN returns thousands and millions of results. It is often not an easy task for a regular web user to build a more specific query, to narrow the search and find the relevant information.
Quintura Search helps to overcome those limitations by offering a visual semantic map, the map of keywords and relationships between keywords. Adding or subtracting keywords from a query using the map and a mouse click, “One-Click Search”, allows a user to specify the context or meaning of the keyword, therefore narrowing the search and finding the relevant information faster.
Quintura Search helps to find the relevant information otherwise difficult or impossible to find. The information might be relevant but have low ranking and is not displayed on the first few pages of standard search results, and as a result hidden from a user. Quintura Search works “The Way People Search”™ giving hints and leading a user in the direction he/she wants to search, helping to specify the context or the meaning of a keyword, thus finding the relevant information even if it has low ranking.
“We solved a major current problem of search when a user is not able to manage a keyword-based search query that returns too many irrelevant results”, said Alexander Ershov, co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Quintura. "Quintura Search makes the query depend on the meaning of user input and not depend on a search engine algorithm. The software helps a user search for relevant information on the Web easier and faster.”
“Our technology also allows to build a Web index based on relationships between keywords. We will then launch a search engine using this index and make Web search even much easier and faster. The technology allows to fully utilize the sell-side online advertising business model that is an evolution of the current model", said Yakov Sadchikov, co-Founder and President & CEO of Quintura. "We look for significant venture capital funding to speed up the market introduction of Quintura online search services.”
Quintura Search 1.0 is a client side application. It utilizes a regular search engine to send and retrieve the results of a query.
Quintura Search™ 1.0 beta is available as public beta and can be downloaded at: http://www.quintura.com/download/.
The final release of Quintura Search™ 1.0 is expected by the end of 2005 and the launch of online search services in Q2, 2006.
