European search index

We’re teaming up with Qwant to build a European search index

The European search engines (and competitors) Ecosia 🇩🇪 and Qwant 🇫🇷 are joining forces to build their own European search index!

And the best part? It’ll be open and available to all of us!

This is great news for other small search engines, start-ups and the AI industry, as they’ll now have the chance to use this index instead of the ones offered by Microsoft and Google.
