    I am searching for results of this european search index, and this is really confusing?

    • Staan.ai (made for AI?)
    • Openwebsearch.eu (not intended for normal users) and OpenWebIndex
    • eu-searchperspective.com from ecosia.

    Ecosia and Qwant make the “european search perspective”, so do you use that when using Qwant and Ecosia?

      EUSP is the joint venture company (a business partnership between Ecosia and Qwant). Staan is the product (the actual search index/database) developed by EUSP to provide the data.

      I just refer to EUSP index 🤷

      It’s not just for AI.

      Ecosia / Qwant have been integrating it but afaik now only for Germany / France (for now) https://blog.ecosia.org/launching-our-european-search-index/ so other people shouldn’t have access to it through them

        Ok I am trying to get infos and none available. Qwant doesnt say and there is also no change in the search URL wether I switch to germany or not? Maybe on german language?

        Ecosia doesnt offer it to me at all

        The resulting search string has the parameter “method=index” 🤔

      Ecosia uses the “european search perspective” in France and Germany right now. Outside that I believe it is still Bing.

          Try to just search something in Ecosia. When you go on the three dots next to the result, you see where it comes from. For me the results are EUSP.

              I played around with it a bit more. It seems to me that the engine depends on the search term. Open source stuff like “linux”, “gimp” or mastodon uses EUSP, as do most place names. When you look up people however it uses mostly Google or Bing. No idea it is really weird.
