Quintura is the visual searching system. The web-site of this searching system was open at the beginning of April, 2006.
The difference of the
searching system Quintura from the traditional searching systems opens up in
conception of the system that is her slogan: to "See and Find" - to
see on a map and find in the internet. Quintura allows by sight to find in the
internet documents on Russian or some other language and pictures taking into
account morphology of searching language.
A feature of the searching
system Quintura is this presence of visual "cloud" or map, words of
associations between pictures or documents, that is a comfortable navigator on
them. Using principle of Quintura, when a search comes true by one mouse click,
an user sees words on a map and clicks a mouse on them, quickly finding
necessary pictures and documents.
The traditional searching
systems, as a rule, do not recognize the article of search of user in the
Internet, including a search on pictures. Unlike them, Quintura offers the
words of association as a visual cloud. These words help an user to intermingle
with the searching system in one language. To specify a searching query, define
the theme of search, and at once to see the results of search.
Her rendering-engine is
built on popular now technology of Mind Map. In this way presentations of
information use millions of persons all over the world, and find him
comfortable. Creating such map is possible and on the ordinary sheet of paper.
A main idea is situated on a center, and branches - associate, near to her
themes walk away from her. Then for each of new records the most similar search
etc. So at any moment it is possible to know for every theme, as she appeared.
Principle looks like child's playing "associations", in mathematics
such chart will be named a count.
In this area a company
Quintura has two developments: the internet search engine of www.quintura.com
and his local full-function analogue is the program Quintura Search (in the
moment of publication of the article the last version there was 1.5). It is
enough to get and set the program Quintura Search for further work.
Searching service of
Quintura, doing a rate on visualization of results of search, in the press name
not differently as by a heir Google, and the known western venture funds are
invested in a project by considerable facilities.
This program helps to build
more exact searching request for a drawmap, giving prompts as the words
contained in the found documents and constrained on sense with your query. By a
mouse click on a word you add or eliminate him from a query, specifying a query
the same, that allows to find information you quicker and simpler.
Hardly anymore year back
Ratmir Timachev, the president of company AMUST Software, in
the past technical director and founder of company Aelita Software, began to
finance a company Quintura, working out new generation software for a search in
the Internet.
"We were strongly
impressed by technology of Quintura, and we accepted a strategic decision to
support going into the market of the program "Quintura Search", -
Ratmir Timachev said. - We divide vision of founders of company consider that a
company Quintura is perfectly positioned, to become a leader at the market of
searching services in the Internet". Timachev led the board of directors
of company, becoming his chairman.
A company Quintura gets
various and very interesting suggestions from the internet of companies on
introduction of technologies of visual search in the informative systems.
Popularity of resource did useful business - a company got investments from
Mangrove Capital Partners, ABRT Venture Fund and OpenView Venture Partners. The
got facilities will be sent to global advancement of the system, and also start
of the partner programs with popular web-sites and blogs, for example, Digg.
To the lacks of the
searching system Quintura it is necessary to take her insufficient popularity
for users especially English-language and frequent enough failures in the robot
of web-site of search, that inflicts irreparable harm of reputation of this
searching system, and similarly slow reacting of the searching system on
appearance of new web-sites and change on already existent web-sites, that
frightens off users and compels them to use other search engines.
