PriEco is a web search engine. Its initial goal was to provide the world with a fully private and eco-friendly search engine. It never tracks you, stores, sells nor shares your data. The only analytics we have is a daily search count, no user count nor anything else. As well as your IP address is never saved to the disk. Future privacy-friendly analytics may come, but they will 100% be opt-in. PriEco is hosted in Switzerland!

Unfortunately, along our journey we needed to choose between increased PriEco's privacy, security, and control and its eco-friendliness. With help of community vote, we decided to temporarily get rid of eco-friendliness as not many people actually cared about it and people wanted more privacy and security. Nonetheless, as time goes, we are fully committed to one day bring it back. By eco-friendliness I mean: efficient software, hosted on servers powered by energy from renewable sources and even donating part of our profit to charities.

A really praised feature of PriEco is that it is open source with AGPL v3 license. There are not many search engines that are open source and no mainstream ones. Source code: https://codeberg.org/JojoYou/PriEco License: https://codeberg.org/JojoYou/PriEco/src/branch/master/LICENCE.md

Now I would like to talk about search results sources. We get results from most of the big sources: Google, Bing, Brave search and Mojeek, and some smaller sources as https://openverse.org/. Not only that, but we are building our own index. It currently has indexed: 1 387 604 web pages 1 846 635 images 1 574 171 search suggestions 1 027 634 reddit posts 141 258 youtube videos 134 634 wikipedia sites 54 920 news articles it is still growing, faster and faster as time goes on!

Other than this there are more interesting features as multi bang and many upcoming.
