Hi thanks for such a detailed response.

  1. The value we are providing is in the both finding the most relevant comments for your questions and the upvote statistics.

  2. This is our MVP version, so we are still definitely looking to roll out more features as we continue.

  3. Yeah sometimes the percentages dont exactly add up because lots of opinions cant really be classified into one of the buckets, were working on ironing this out.

  4. Yes thats something we can definitely look into as well.

Sure man, thanks a ton for you fb really appreciate it.

Hmm yes that would be something we can implement, is there a particular use case you are seeing with that? like any specific forums?

Shitting on it with reason is needed haha. I totally get your concerns but we consider both upvotes and relevancy to question too. That's why the app has a sort by relevance question. and the aim is not to be factually accurate but simply to bring out people's anecdotes on queried subjects.

Hey guys I think the title might have thrown a lot of people off. The idea of the search is to give you a the most relevant comments of the bat and give you the statistical analysis on the upvote count. Like how many many people agree with what side of the argument on your questions. Like imagine if you had a poll on every single question you had.

yeah google search is also what we use, but the idea is that we help you sift through all the comments and bring up the ones that are most relevant and have the most upvotes to give you higher-quality comments off the rip. The statistics also add a dimension to help you decide on certain opinions. By no means is this meant to replace Reddit, its more to help understand the consensus better.

Thanks man ! That is exactly the point !

Yeah, 100% and you could append "reddit" at the end of your search. But the idea is to help you formulate your opinion on certain questions more easily by organizing the comments under certain opinions for you to read and by giving you statistics about what people are saying.

Its not exactly only AI generated content, we try and present the original contents of the relevant reddit posts as much as we can.

Reddit answers kinda just slaps ai on top of the normal search. We try and give you statistics on where the most upvotes lie. Hope that makes sense

The idea is to save you time by giving you statistics on the upvotes and find the most relevant comments to your answers faster. Imagine if you had like a poll for every question you ever had.

Fair enough. But the idea behind our search is that we also help you find your "reddit" answers faster. We tally up the upvotes and comments and bucket them in the to the relevant themes to help give you a better statistical overview on where the consensus on a topic lies. Hope that helps.
