Why Google is so unbearable, and how to fix it

This is why I switched to Neeva, I want my search engine to make products for me that help me find the best results for what I am looking for. When an advertiser is the customer instead of the end user the entire product road map is just trying to take you back to that search results page as many times as possible.

Neeva also lets me index my personal documents and includes those in search results as well. They are an early startup but I am excited about what they can build when they are not beholden to advertisers.

Another Neeva user here... yeah, the personal document indexing was far cooler than I expected. I held off doing it for it a while but glad I gave it go. Just the GitHub indexing alone is cool. Can do some fun hacks with that too. I think they need to surface these personal results even better in the web results than they do (and I hear that is in the works?? hope it is).
