About
The TOR network is a cornerstone of online anonymity. Finding what you need within it has remained a persistent challenge. Existing search engines are often unreliable, outdated, or fail to respect the core principles of privacy. We are changing that.
We are developing a new open-source TOR search engine, built in rust, along with its commercial counterpart. It is built from the ground up to deliver powerful, accurate results without ever compromising your OPSEC. We are seeking your support to bring this vital tool from alpha to full operation.
What Makes Our Search Different?
Our engine provides a fundamental leap forward in TOR search technology.
- Intelligent Crawling: Our system uses automatic mirror detection. This ensures our index is comprehensive and up-to-date by finding and verifying alternative locations for content.
- True & Fair Rankings: Our engine uses sophisticated algorithms incorporating several trust factors, such as back links, the quality of back links, semantic similarity, fuzzy searches, and keywords. We aim to provide true search rankings based on relevance and quality.
- Semantic Search: Understand the intent behind your query. Our semantic similarity search helps you find related content even if it doesn't contain the exact keywords you used.
- Powerful Operators: For researchers and power users, we support Google-style search operators (intitle:, filetype:, site:). This gives you surgical precision to find exactly what you're looking for.
- A Fair Advertising Model: For businesses and services on TOR, we built an ethical advertising system. Advertisers can lease keywords to display their ads. When there is no direct keyword match, the system uses semantic similarity as a fallback. Ads will be clearly marked as advertisements. This keeps ads relevant and non-intrusive.
Our Commitment to Ethics and Privacy
Your trust is our most valuable asset. We guarantee:
- Zero Tracking: No logs, no analytics, no cookies. Your searches are yours alone and they only ever briefly live in memory.
- Quarterly Transparency Reports: We will publish a transparency report every quarter. It will detail takedown requests, data statistics, and our operational integrity.
- Strict No-CSAM Policy: We have a zero-tolerance policy for Child Sexual Abuse Material. Any detected content will be reported to the relevant authorities across North America and Europe and subsequently removed from our index immediately.
- Open Source: Our core search engine will be open-source. This allows the community to audit our code and contribute to its development as well as self host the non monetized project, complete with an indexer and frontend.
Where Your Monero Goes
- Your contribution will be used exclusively for hosting and infrastructure.
The cloud server architecture required to crawl, index, and serve the TOR network is shockingly costly. We are seeking just 2 XMR. This will fund one final month of development, testing, and alpha releases, and the first month of public operation.
By supporting us, you are investing in a more ethical, accessible, and functional TOR network for everyone.
