Twitter profile search that works

Hacker News

Hey HN, I’m Jeremy, one of the co-founders of People Net (YC W24). We’re building an AI search engine for people ( https://www.thepeoplenet.com/ ). Currently, search engines view the Internet as a collection of webpages. So unless you search for someone’s name, most “people search” queries fail [1]. We see the internet as a collection of people. At the People Net, we’re making every person on the Internet easy to find. Our first step is a Twitter profile search that actually works. Try it now: https://www.thepeoplenet.com/ Current Progress: 0.08% of internet citizens indexed (4mil / ~5.5bil) [1]: <comparison> Query: “Professors building companies in the Bay Area” Big G: https://www.google.com/search?q=Professors+building+companie...
