List of AI Search Engines

It’s like the 90s again, when we had lots of different search engines to choose from – such as Altavista, Yahoo, Jeeves etc – before Google came along and ate their lunch.

Now, in mid-2020s we have something similar – but different – with a diverse range of AI search engines being released.

These are a mixture of AI search assistants, AI-powered search engines and existing search engines which have been boosted up with AI powers.

Andi – your smart AI Search Assistant

ChatGPT search – Get fast, timely answers with links to relevant web sources

Komo AI Search – a cutting-edge AI-powered search engine (I asked it to describe itself)

Perplexity – Perplexity is an innovative AI-powered search engine that revolutionizes the way people access and process information online (I asked it to describe itself)

Brave Search – Search the web privately

Phind – an AI-powered search engine designed specifically for developers and professionals

You.com – an advanced search engine that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance the search experience

Thanks to SearchEngineJournal for the info on some of the above.

And of course, there’s then the existing big players – Google and Bing – but neither of them seem ready/easily available at the moment (Jan 2025)

Google – Google is now featuring Google Search Overviews – although currently (Jan 2025) only in the US in English

Bing – Microsoft’s search engine is now the new Bing – the AI-powered assistant for your search. Though according to the site the instructions are ‘To try Bing Chat, sign into Microsoft Edge and select the Bing chat icon in the browser toolbar. Feature availability and functionality may vary by device type, market, and browser version.’ I opened Edge browser and Bing Chat takes you to https://copilot.microsoft.com/chats/ so it’s hardly a smooth ride to try it out.

Other AI Search Engines that you have to go through hoops to use include Grok – to access this, you have to sign in to X.

And then there’s the AI agent platforms such as Copilot, ChatGPT and Google Gemini, which directly answer your questions, so not a traditional search engine, but usually providing links to their sources.

About my testing services: iOS App Testing / Android App Testing / Website Testing / AI Chatbot Testing

Pat performs comprehensive website testing for us, across all the main browsers and platforms, including mobile devices. His flexible approach to testing and clear feedback enable us to have confidence that the business end of our website is still working smoothly after system updates and changes.

Steve Liu, Manager, Wicked Lasers

Pat Walsh fixed my site within hours of my contacting him – his WordPress website fix service clearly works!

Douglas Green, Douglas Software

We hired Pat to help with QA of a music streaming app. We needed someone with that magic “6th sense” of where the bugs are lurking; the ones which developers tend to miss. Pat more than fulfilled this need, with highly methodical approach and a great eye for detail.

Subsequently Pat has provided QA services for a personal app project of mine, finding a significant issue which had been lurking for some time.

Pat is a real asset to any team – highly competent technically but also easy going and a great guy to work with. Highly recommended!

Andrew Ebling, Head of App Development, Composed

Pat Walsh provided Kingston Valdes with a professional and personable service that was excellent value. The site was built and tested quickly, we are delighted with the results, and we have already had positive feedback from some of our clients. If you’re thinking of building a new site or adapting an existing one, I’d certainly recommend speaking with Pat about it.

Kathy Valdes, Kingston Valdes

Pat has been absolutely incredible at testing each of our projects he works on. He’s very professional, organised and diligent. I look forward to using him again in the future.

Oliver Thurtle, Director of Technology, Drum

Pat is an excellent one-stop-shop for testing Apps and Websites. He is a self-starter who just knows what needs to be done and gets on with it, and is responsive to requests for any specific testing requirements. He provides test plans and reports as a matter of course and was a pleasure to work with. I will definitely be working with Pat again if the opportunity arises.

Andrew Birley, PM, Storythings

We’ve worked with Pat Walsh on a number of very different projects, from interactive video projects to mobile apps. His work is very thorough and has quickly become an essential and important phase of all the production work we do at Storythings. He’s thorough, diligent, and a pleasure to work with.

Matt Locke, Director, Storythings

Pat came to Composed to respond to our (increasingly urgent) need of QA on mobile and web and I can testify he more than fulfilled the task. On the Android side, his very structured approach (first exploratory testing, then focus on defining test plans for a variety of scopes) and his clear knowledge of the latest mobile technologies have quickly paid off. He was involved directly with the developers (including myself) and this very dynamic relationship enabled us to annihilate bugs swiftly and efficiently.

David Ferrand, Android Developer, Composed

Couldn’t recommend Pat highly enough. He goes beyond what you’d expect of a QA tester, commenting more broadly on user experience and even design. He’s quick, efficient and thorough – couldn’t ask for any more.

Rob Calvert, Director, Click
