What is Andisearch?

Andisearch is an AI-powered chatbot and search engine that was launched in 2022. 

More Innovative Than Others?

The developers of Andi claimed that they added several innovative features to this search bot, which was copied even by giants like Google and OpenAI. 

Study Supports Andi Claims

A recent study found out that Andi beat AI search market leaders like Google Gemini and OpanAI’s ChatGPT in search results accuracy.

The study revealed that while Gemini and ChatGPT scored  71% and 62% search results accuracy respectively, Andi Search scored an impressive 87% accuracy, beating all existing AI-powered chat and search bots.

Talking about this great achievement, Andi’s co-founder and CEO, Angela Hoover said that Andi can provide accurate search results because of its proprietary backend, Trantora, which focuses on meaning of search queries, not keyword matching like other search engines.

Andisearch: The Technological Aspects

Andi is able to deliver results with remarkable accuracy because it leverages several groundbreaking AI technologies. Here is a brief discussion on what technologies this search agent utilises along with their benefits:

Generative Artificial Intelligence

Generative AI, that is at the core of Trantora backend of Andisearch, is an AI technology that helps machines create new content (text, videos, images, audio etc) by analysing patterns of human-created data. 

Generative AI leverages Machine Learning model that helps it to make machines that can generate fresh content without lots of programming or human interference. 

A machine powered by generative AI requires very little training data but can synthesise datasets to create new content like a human being. 

The key  benefits of this special AI technology are listed below.

• By producing unique content from existing data, this technology allows human beings to explore fresh possibilities. Thus it enhances and supports the creative aspect of human nature.
• Generative AI can automate repetitive tasks with outstanding efficiency, helping human beings to use their brains for more productive tasks.
• This AI technology can accurately analyse data and provide valuable insights that may help you to make informed and correct decisions.
• It can create different types of content like text, videos and images with remarkable accuracy and speed.

Machine Learning (ML)

Machine learning (ML) is a subset of AI that uses ‘intelligent’ algorithms that can analyse data, make predictions and improve their efficiency without elaborate programming. Using this technology, search assistants like Andisearch can learn from available data and don’t require much human interference in the form of coding. 

Key benefits of this technology are listed below.

• ML promotes self-study capabilities in machines. As a result, machines can improve their efficiency over time without human intervention. 
• This technology improves machines’ efficiency, saves time by automating repetitive tasks and promotes informed decision-making by providing valuable insights by analysing vast amounts of data lightning fast. 
• Machine Learning can predict future trends and help businesses prepare for potential future challenges.
• This technology can analyse customer data and provide valuable insights that can be used to improve customer experience and engagement.

Natural Language Processing

Andisearch leverages natural language processing (NLP), which is an AI technology that enables machines to understand, analyse and produce human language. 

Instead of focusing on words, NLP focuses on the meaning of words in a particular context. 

This contextual understanding helps machines like a computer distinguish between the changes of meaning of the same word in various contexts and sentence structures.

An outstanding example of NLP incorporation is Google’s Hummingbird search algorithm that counts the meaning of words rather than keywords which helped it to detect keyword manipulation and stuffing. 

Some key benefits of NLP are listed below.

• NLP lets tools like Andisearch understand and respond to human language, making human-machine interaction more intuitive and natural.
• NLP helps produce tools like chatbots and virtual assistants.
• This technology makes man’s interaction with machines enjoyable and exciting, improving the user experience greatly.
• NLP can analyse large datasets and automate repetitive tasks, freeing up human resources for more productive and creative endeavours.
• NLP can analyse text and understand the sentiment that motivated it. This helps businesses understand their customer behaviour accurately.
• This technology facilitates translation from one language to another accurately.
• By understanding the meaning of the content, NLP-driven machines can produce outstanding summaries of text inputs.

Semantic Search Capability

Semantic search is an AI-powered search technique that utilises ML and NLP to understand the actual meaning of a search query and produce the most relevant and accurate search results. 

Instead of focusing on the exact search terms used, NLP-powered search assistants like Andisearch focus on the contextual meaning and sentiment of the search query. This helps machines to understand the exact search intent and produce the most appropriate search results.

Key benefits of semantic search are listed below.

• Semantic search algorithms can understand the exact sentiment and search intent behind a search query. This helps it to produce the best contextually relevant search results. 
• Instead of matching keywords, semantic search produces results that are an even match with search intent. This significantly improves user experience and engagement.
• Semantic search algorithms can help users find the exact product or service that they want, leading to improved conversions and sales. 
• Semantic search can produce the most relevant results leading to greater customer satisfaction.
• This technology helps machines produce personalised search results based on a user’s search history and behaviour.

Deep Learning Technology

Deep Learning (DL) is a subfield of machine learning where machines are given an artificial neural network that helps them think, understand, predict and produce like human beings.

Andisearch takes full advantage of this technology to produce accurate responses. 

A DL model has multiple layers that can mimic human thought processes due to the artificial neural networks. That is why an algorithm with DL capabilities, such as the one used in Andi, can analyse human languages and produce relevant responses, as an AI assistant does. 

Key deep learning benefits, as reflected in Andisearch, Gemini etc, are listed below.

• DL helps machines automatically extract and learn relevant features from data. This helps them understand complex patterns and relationships in data and predict and produce accurately.
• Deep learning algorithms allow machines to handle large datasets and consequently learn from experience gathered from extensive and varied datasets.
• This capability results in machines efficiently doing complex tasks involving large datasets like image creation and speech recognition.
• DL can handle varied types of data like texts, images, videos and audio. That’s why DL-driven machines are suitable for a broad spectrum of tasks like producing images and interacting with human beings. For example, Andisearch, which leverages DL, can perform different tasks efficiently. 

Large Language Model

A large language model is a system where machines leverage NLP, deep learning and machine learning algorithms to interact with human beings, understand and ponder on what is being said and come up with the most relevant responses.

Andisearch is a large language model (LLM) like Google Gemini and OpenAI’s ChatGPT. 

These LLMs are trained on massive datasets and can analyse and predict text data. This capability helps them understand human languages, produce content and answer questions like a human being. 

LLMs leverage DL technology to think and reply like a human being, which makes them capable of doing complex tasks like answering complex questions and producing images based on text inputs. 

Key benefits of LLMs are listed below.

• LLMs can automate repetitive tasks like data entry, report crafting etc and free up human resources for more pressing and creative work.
• LLMs like chatbots and AI assistants can understand human languages and answer queries correctly. This improves customer experience and engagement.
• LLMs are used to brainstorm ideas, summarise large content, create artistic and realistic images and videos etc. 
• Their ability to mimic human thought processes helps them respond to inputs in a conversational manner, greatly improving the user satisfaction.
• LLMs can analyse text data and understand the real intent behind search queries. As a result, they can produce the most relevant search results.
