Neeva Launches in Europe to Rival Google Search With Tracking ... (Business Wire)

Search engine Neeva has today launched in Europe to rival Google, by giving web users honest search results, no tracking, and with absolutely no adver.

Neeva is the world’s first user-first private search engine. Neeva will challenge this supremacy by creating a better search and browse experience that delights users,” says Mr Ramaswamy. To date, search alternatives to Big Tech have mostly offered stronger privacy but at the expense of diminished search quality. By eschewing ads and advertisers, Neeva eliminates corporate bias that has plagued the traditional search experience. In addition, Neeva enables users to connect personal applications like email, Dropbox, Slack, Figma and others making it easy to search across the most important personal documents while maintaining strict privacy controls. The internet should be your private corner of the web instead of a barrage of ads, SEO spam and irrelevant information.

Google rival Neeva has launched in the UK, but its claims to be tracking free have been refuted by critics labelling the pledge as “marketing propaganda.”.

“Neeva runs a very large search stack with hundreds of millions of pages crawled every day, billions of pages in its index and serving at scale,” a Neeva spokesperson tells Verdict. “[It’s] pure marketing propaganda,” Hayhurst claims. “Neeva uses all sorts of ways to track as we show and they admit, but not in their marketing that they may collect IP addresses should be enough to convince you.
