Leader

Hi, Chris here, founder and CEO of Leader (https://leader.tech). Have you ever read a news about a major event and asked yourself: Where else has this happened before? Or find a relation between 2 celebs and wondered: Who else is connected this way? The Internet has been part of our daily lives for more than 30 years, connecting everyone and everything together and yet we are still searching the same way we did back in the '90s: keyword search. Wouldn't it be great if we can actually search the web like a web? Jumping from one person to another by navigating their relations? Or finding out who share the same relation like: Who else have launched on Product Hunt? Leader is an open, collaborative platform where users can contribute directly to the search results by annotating relations while reading news. No need to write a Wiki-like essay, just a few mouse clicks and you too can be part of the knowledge web. The traditional keyword search engines don't do a very good job in differentiating people or businesses with the same name. With Leader, each search is restricted to a uniquely identifiable entity and allows you to create an entity at any time so you no longer have to use hard to spell names for your business. Find out more at https://leader.tech/business. We're very proud to announce the launch of our new search engine and would like to invite you to join the community. Submit a question and let others find the answers for you or submit an answer and let others see the results, it's that flexible. We'd also love to hear feedback from you. Please share your thoughts in the comments below.

Nice take on providing contextual search. Since it's users who annotate the articles, I was curious how you guys ensure quality of results?

Very slow to respond.

Interesting!

@Goutham, thanks for the feedback. We're ensuring the quality the same way Wikipedia, Stackoverflow and other crowdsourcing communities do and that is to allow users to submit first and review later. There's a tiered system of privileges; users have to contribute in order to gain extra permissions. Users can also flag others' contributions as a way of maintaining the quality. We'll be rolling out many features in the coming weeks, stay tuned.

Ajmal Khan, thanks for the feedback. The server is situated in US-East, where are you? is it loading slow for you or search is slow?
