Cuil - all new search engine

Former Google engineer Tom Costello has unveiled a new search engine claiming to offer the biggest web index with 120 billion web pages - three times more than other search engines, including Google.



A startup technology company, Cuil (pronounced COOL) is led by the husband-and-wife team of Tom Costello and Anna Patterson. Before founding Cuil, Costello researched and developed search engines at Stanford University and IBM, while Patterson was the architect of Google's large search index and led a web page ranking team.

The new challenger to Google's throne promises to offer organized and relevant results based on web page content analysis. Going beyond link analysis and traffic ranking, Cuil analyzes the context of each page and the concepts behind each query. It then organizes similar search results into groups and sorts them by category. Users are provided with a richer display of results and features such as tabs to clarify subjects, images to identify topics and search refining suggestions to guide then through the results.
