Unparalleled Intelligent Searching

Provides API access to over two dozen precision search options:

•Search features include synonym/concept/thesaurus, fuzziness adjustable from 0 to 10, boolean, phrase, wildcard, proximity, stemming, numeric range, natural language relevancy-ranked by hit density and rarity, and variable term weighting.
• Search features can be used alone or in almost any combination (regardless of complexity).

•(For more information, see Search Features – Full-Text, Fields.)

Uses proprietary indexing and searching algorithms engineered for scaleability.

•Indexed search time is generally instantaneous.

•Indexing is optimized to maintain consistent speed over even the largest document collections.
