Hey! I’m on the team working on this. The semantic web comparison is pretty close to how we think about this.
One key difference is that we’re using LLMs to create structured data on the fly based on the query. That means we don't need to relying on webmasters to explicitly annotate pages with metadata which in my view was one of the main reasons why the semantic web did not work out.
Suggests that when Meta AI started throwing around those multi-million-dollar paychecks they got 12 from OpenAI, 5 from DeepMind, 2 from Thinking Machines Lab and none from Anthropic.

Hey, I'm on the team working on this. In terms of accuracy the best way to gauge the usefulness of these reports is to search for some you are deeply familiar with and then estimate.
In general I find these reports have some gaps but for most topics they provide a reasonable picture of what is going on. I personally prefer them over deep research reports coming out of chatgpt etc. as they are just walls of text that I skip to go to the result table.
Prompt was "What user on Hacker News made most comments in August, 2026?". Seemed pretty fast, used reasonable sources, results makes sense, pretty good job done by the people building it :)
I wish there was a way to abort/cancel/edit the requests, as I am, like many of you, still human, and therefore do mistakes sometimes, but I do realize them, although sometimes a bit too late.
inigyou claims (1) to be a sockpuppet of a previously banned user (2) to be now banned/restricted and (3) to have a username based on a slur, which I have not been able to figure out, despite diligent LLM assistance.
SEM_EXTRACT, SEM_MATCH, WEB_SEARCH are pretty vague functions. Makes me wonder why you'd bother with the SQL part at that point and not just ask the question.

For example as somebody interested in coffee this is pretty comprehensive based on my previous research work: https://select.keenable.ai/r/dual-boiler-prosumer-espresso-m...
Otherwise looks really cool!

The server cannot process the request because it is malformed. It should not be retried. That’s all we know.
terrible, i wrote a 10 line prompt and I got this error and completely lost my query when I tried to google sign in from a firefox browser on mac
