about efoodi's search

Have you ever searched a food website looking for a recipe or a restaurant, only to get back a mess of pointless results? Or have you ever done a search for something quite general, like "seafood soup", and only gotten back results for the most literal interpretation of your request (as opposed to things like "clam chowder")? efoodi aims to put an end to this.

efoodi has a deep understanding of food. It is powered by a collection of custom-built technologies that allow it to realize that "clam chowder" is a kind of "seafood soup" or that a "churrasco" restaurant is a kind of south american meat buffet. efoodi uses this knowledge not only to find you all the relevant results and prioritize them, but also to help you refine your search with suggestions for ways to restrict or expand your search criteria.

Aside from its knowledge of food concepts, efoodi uses a large and complex suite of quality metrics for understanding the overall relevance of search results. That includes direct feedback from users and social connections between authors, but those are just a couple of over a dozen criteria that are analyzed to ensure that you get the best possible information every time.

Well, you can try it and see. But also, we're experts, so you might take that into account too. efoodi is built, loved, and maintained by Caltech graduates who have spent years studying computer intelligence technologies and have worked at places like this.
