In this article, we will guide you on how to use the search option on the platform.

How to make an efficient search ?

You have two options: keyword search or AI search. If you enter multiple keywords, we'll search for them together, with a maximum of 5 words apart.

✏️ Keyword Search:

Like any search engine, you can type the subject of your research in the search bar, press enter, and a set of results will show up accordingly.

But before you press enter, you have different options to optimize your results:

🔍 If you're inside a specific channel:
We'll search through all the results in that channel and highlight the keyword wherever it appears.

🌐 If you're on your homepage:
We'll search across all available channels and highlight the keyword as well.

💡 You can use boolean terms to refine your results:

AND: Will search for all the keywords.
Example: Meat AND Alternative

OR: Will search for at least one of the keywords.
Example: Pea protein OR Potato protein

NOT: Will exclude content with the keyword following NOT.
Example: Green Hydrogen NOT Carbon

You can also use operators like quotation marks to search for an exact set of words (e.g. "alternative meat sales") or parentheses to combine several operators together (e.g. (potato OR pea OR bean) AND protein).

🤖 AI Search:

If you switch to the AI search option, you can ask any question in natural language. Our AI will scan for articles that can answer your query. It will only search within the current channel if you're in one, or across all channels if you're on your homepage. 

You can ask anything, such as:

• “What are the key products launched in the past month in the consumer goods sector?”
• "What are the latest trends in the healthcare industry?"
• “Which companies are leading innovation in the renewable energy sector?”
• “What are the main challenges currently facing the transportation industry?”

🎉 Feel free to ask as many questions as you want to uncover more insights!
