I posted this in another comment, but this is exactly why I built a project I call Piglet:

https://projectpiglet.com/

Google is really good for general information, but really bad for domain specific information. Piglet (in contrast) is really good at domain specific, but can be poor in the general case (although I haven't seen that yet). We track discussions around the articles, as opposed to linked pages. This typically provides more information. You can read about it on our about page.

For instance, this article appears right at the top of the search results: https://imgur.com/a/AkUTb

I recommend reaching out to me if you're interested - we are currently doing a private beta. Spcifically, the application is for investing (we are building an AI financial advisor), but I personally use it as a search engine as well.



Is there any way to use just the search engine bit? I don't care much about investing, but it'd be great if you could take the investment-specific information out of the free/public account and just returned the results for searches.


Not at the moment, although that is an interesting idea.


I second the request. As I wrote in another comment, if it was good at ignoring the usual SEO crap, I'd pay for a subscription.
