Ceptile Introduces an AI Search Platform Linking Answers to Web Sources

Summary

Ceptile is an early-stage search platform designed to combine the convenience of an AI-generated answer with the ability to inspect the underlying web pages. It retrieves pages from the web, ranks the sources, and uses selected material to produce an answer with links back to those sources. Users can open the referenced pages and continue researching, while a selection toolbar can save text to Notes or translate it. The project is also exploring other tools around the search workflow and information found during searches. Its current development focus is the retrieval pipeline: finding useful pages, handling noisy results, choosing which sources should support an answer, and preserving the connection between claims and citations. The creator is seeking feedback on cases where the system may fail, including whether results are useful for queries users already understand and whether the citations make answers easy to verify. The article does not describe the platform as mature or provide performance results.
