Hey Presearch Community,
Here's a quick rundown of what's been happening at Presearch in April 2026:
🚀 Infrastructure & Search Index
Our search index has crossed 76 million pages! We've integrated a Qdrant Vector Database to improve scalability and semantic search, and we're moving toward daily index updates for fresher results.
You can self-index sites here and become discoverable in hours.
🔍 Search Quality & UX
April was heavily focused on search quality — backend optimizations, better redundancy across providers, and ongoing UI/UX improvements.
If you would like to help us constantly improve our cohesive search experience, join our Quality Control channel.
🧠 AI-Powered Smart Results
Presearch Smart Results now runs an upgraded, faster, more accurate model. A follow-up chatbot feature, is in development and launching in approximately one week, enabling interactive follow-up questions directly from search results!
💰 Patents Pending and Conference Attendance
Our new Beehiiv email marketing program is now profitable, covering operational costs and generating additional revenue. This is all thanks to the community, your engagement with every newsletter sponsor really helps support our mission and power decentralized, anonymized search.
We also attended RenderCon and CodeStock, explored subnet partnership opportunities, and completed a Patent Pending filing for one of our core technologies.
🔥 Ecosystem & Token Updates
The Series III Node NFT Auction is officially our 3rd consecutive sellout, raising 15.7M+ PRE, nearly double the previous auction. All 200 Vector nodes were sold and every buyer submitted their wallet address.
That said, only 53 of 200 node licenses are currently active. If you're a node runner, now's the time to fire up your Vector. If you are a node runner and you need further instructions, refer to this doc for step-by-step instructions.
The April Node Payout was sent on May 5th.
The TGE Swap timeline has been moved to June as we prioritize platform stability.
🎯 What's Next
Retention is our top priority. Expect more UX improvements, the AI follow-up launch, and the TGE swap in the coming months!
If you have stuck by Presearch for this long, you will not regret it!
Warm regards,
The Presearch Team
