Presearch is a decentralized search engine with more than 3.5 million users and nearly 200 million searches a month. It offers users three unique value propositions: Having control over their data and privacy Being paid for contributing value to the ecosystem A decentralization search ecosystem Presearch identified the problem of traditional search engines and turned it on its head. Instead of search engines monetizing the user’s data, the users monetize the data themselves. Presearch does this by paying its users to utilize its search engine. The company is designed to be a non-profit organization, thereby eliminating incentives of for-profit corporations that may run contrary to users’ best interests. It also achieves decentralization of its ecosystem thanks to the operation of its nodes by community members.
