You.com is an AI search and research assistant. Richard Socher, a former chief scientist at Salesforce, and Bryan McCann founded the company. It is based in Palo Alto, California. It opened as a search engine in 2021 and later shifted to giving AI answers with sources.
Users ask questions and get answers that cite web sources. Research modes write longer reports. Users can choose between models from several providers. The company also offers a search API that other AI products use to pull in web results, and it has put more focus on business customers. Users can upload files and ask questions about them. Custom agents let users set instructions and sources for repeated tasks.
There is a free plan with limits. Paid plans give more access to advanced models and research modes, and business plans add team features and security controls. Researchers, analysts and companies building AI products are among its users.
