SEARCH ENGINE SOFTWARE


YACY IS FREE SOFTWARE FOR YOUR OWN SEARCH ENGINE.

Join a community of search engines or make your own search portal!

There are these three use cases you can choose from:


P2P MODE

Web Search by the people, for the people: decentralized, all users are equal, no
central, no search request storage, shared index.


YOUR SEARCH PORTAL

Your YaCy installation is independent from other peers. Define your own web
index and starting your own web crawl.


INTRANET SEARCH

Create a search portal for your intranet or web pages or your (shared) file
system.



DECENTRALIZATION

Imagine if, rather than relying on the proprietary software of a large
professional search engine operator, your search engine was run by many private
computers which aren't under the control of any one company or individual. Well,
that's what YaCy does!

Here is a live image of the YaCy network:




INSTALLATION IS EASY!

The installation takes only three minutes. Just download the release, decompress
the package and run the start script.
