Andi — A conversational search engine that answers in a chat-like feed.

Description

Andi presents search results as a conversational, chat-like feed instead of a list of blue links, blending a traditional search index with an AI-generated answer for each query.

Pros

  • Genuinely different, chat-like result format
  • No account required to start searching
  • Good for quick conversational lookups

Cons

  • Less reliable than dedicated engines for niche/technical queries
  • Smaller team means slower feature pace

What it does & solves

Andi solves the same 'too many blue links' fatigue that AI search overall addresses, but stays deliberately simple and free rather than adding research agents or paid tiers. It gives you a synthesized answer plus a conversational feed of supporting results, aimed at quick everyday lookups rather than deep multi-step research. It's a good fit when you want a fast, ad-free, chat-style answer without creating an account or picking a subscription plan.

Use cases

  • Quick factual lookups answered conversationally instead of as a link list
  • Ad-free, no-account search for privacy-conscious casual use
  • Comparing a short list of options (products, restaurants, etc.) in a chat-style summary
  • Getting a fast answer on a phone without wading through mobile search ads
  • Using it as a lighter-weight alternative to Perplexity or Kagi for simple questions
  • Following up conversationally on a search without retyping context
  • Introducing less technical users to AI search with a familiar chat format

Who it's for

Best for casual, everyday searchers who want a faster, cleaner alternative to traditional search without paying for one or creating an account. It's not built for deep research, citation-heavy fact-checking, or technical/niche queries — dedicated tools like Perplexity or Kagi handle those better. No technical skill is needed at all; it works like any search box.

Getting started

  1. 1Go to andisearch.com and type your question directly — no signup required.
  2. 2Read the conversational answer in the feed, scrolling for supporting results.
  3. 3Ask a follow-up question in the same thread to refine or go deeper.
  4. 4Use the browser extension or mobile app for search-on-the-go.
  5. 5Switch to a dedicated research tool if a query turns out to need deep citations.

Tips for using it well

  • Use it for quick, single-answer questions rather than multi-step research — that's where it's strongest
  • Ask follow-up questions in the same feed instead of starting a new search from scratch
  • Don't expect deep citation trails like Perplexity — Andi's format favors a fast conversational answer
  • No account is needed to start, so try it before deciding whether to make it a default
  • For niche, technical, or highly time-sensitive queries, cross-check with a dedicated search engine
