The Internet has grown exponentially in the last fifteen years but search engines have not kept up-until now. Cuil searches more pages on the Web than anyone else-three times as many as Google and ten times as many as Microsoft. Rather than rely on superficial popularity metrics, Cuil searches for and ranks pages based on its content and relevance. When the firm finds a page with your keywords, the company stays on that page and analyzes the rest of its content, its concepts, its inter-relationships and the page's coherency. Then the company offers you helpful choices and suggestions until you find the page you want and that you know is out there. The firm believes that analyzing the Web rather than its users is a more useful approach, so the company doesn't collect data about you and your habits, lest it is tempted to peek. With Cuil, your search history is always private. Cuil is an old Irish word for knowledge.
