Search Engines
are not research engines
Search types
Use the different search types to organize your research and data.
01.
Basic Search
To find something by looking or otherwise seeking carefully and thoroughly. Usually a single correct answer and accomplished in minutes.
02.
Basic Research

03.
Complex Search
Uses terms to find something but adds complexity such as location, language, groupings, closely related terms of results.

Making Complex Easy
Narrowed Results
Search has stagnated for 20 years. Back when there weren’t many websites, the number of search results was the implicit metric of success. search engines are still focusing on returning more results, but users want fewer, better, results. Who needs 488, 000, 000 web pages?
Evolved Search
Iterative Search is not another search engine but an evolved search tool that lays on top of existing search engines and databases. It modernizes search by focusing on the user’s behaviors to find more relevant results, not just more results. this tool is the culmination of years of user research observing typical search behaviors.
Innovative Searching
The User Experience design approach of Iterative Search reduces the common cumbersome steps of complex research tasks to single-click actions. Allowing users to quickly pick up where they left off without having to rerun a search.
Positive Response
We’ve conducted Usability Tests with various user types, including lawyers, researchers, students, and marketing firms. Rather than simple platitudes to make us feel good, they described precisely how they would use it on a current project. Clearly, they understood how the design solves their research problems.
