Point and Search - Unified Information Access On-the-Go

With its patented navigation technology - Search By Serendipity(TM) - Exalead offers a unique search experience through easy-to-use, yet sophisticated features. For every query, Exalead automatically offers a list of related terms and categories to help users easily comb through search results. In addition, Exalead provides a thumbnail image for every search result so that users can also search more visually to quickly sort through results.

Exalead's Web search engine complies with the display specifications of the Apple iPhone screen so that users don't need to "zoom in" to clearly see search results or scroll horizontally to see the rest of the Web page. The Exalead iPhone-adapted Web search handles online video searches from popular sources like YouTube. When users click on a video search result, the Exalead Web search engine automatically identifies the format to offer a full-screen viewing experience.
