Been using Neeva as my primary search engine since mid 2022 and loving it !!!
Neeva continues to get better and better and if you want to find an alternative to Google search and also have no ads this is the search engine for you.
Search results without advertiser bias is a great benefit, and the recent introduction of AI-generated result summaries is a wonderful addition.
speaking as a developer: a great search for developers, no ads and privacy is great. connected apps like gmail and drive are amazing. github on the other hand completely useless. support is amazing. but I really have to complain about the website itself. doesn´t matter how large your screen is, neeva does not care, it only uses the same width, so wasting 80% of my screen is stupid, but that´s my personal opinion here. but you can easily solve that with some custom CSS ;) after all, neeva is great time saver, I wish I could connect custom apps so neeva could search in external apps via API, a killer feature, but today, it looks like, they have focus on other things, which is sad. because connecting my own apps (apis or feeds) neeva would be able to search inside, would be a killer feature, and the possibilities with that would be endless. i still hope, they understand someday ;)
I am a paid subscriber of Neeva and my experience so far has been excellent and I do not regret putting down the dinero.
Not sure if I can explain this right, but my experience with Neeva search is calming and focussed.What I mean by that are no 'micro-battles' in my mind where I am trying to actively parse through what is an ad, or whether there was an agenda behind showing me a particular result on top of the page etc. These 'micro-battles' in my mind were exhausting and I just didn't want to play the game anymore.Neeva allows me to focus on the results and make my own judgement on how I want to use it.There is no nudging no agenda. And all that with privacy as a priority? Sure I will take it!
I also love the design, very minimalist yet super functional.My first thought was very Apple like.There is a concept of 'Spaces' that Neeva is supercharging and I love to use it. The search integration with apps(email, cloud drives, notion,slack,Jira and many more) is awesome awesome and Neeva is the only search engine I trusted enough to provide the access.
Of course, they are many areas of improvement, like News for sure and other functionalities like finance, flights etc. where I sometimes find myself heading back to Google. But I assume it is only a matter of time and resources and Neeva will be able to provide the same or better functionalities.
Fast, great search. With the added local New Zealand results it's been great to use. Keeps improving, give it a go!
The new AI summary 'widget' at the top of the results area is the compelling differentiator from other search engine options IMO. Often people are searching for a simple answer to a question, not a list of links that we have to evaluate and then go off and read to get that answer. By summarizing and answering the question at the top of the search results, while also creating a dynamic subset of reference links used to generate that summary, it's a fairly comprehensive approach to satisfying the balance between 'just answer my question' AND 'but let me quickly and easily dig into the details (curated best list of sources) behind it if I want to'.
