Current AI search engines are getting worse at accuracy, not better. Perplexity’s hallucination rate nearly doubled from 18% to 35% between Aug 2024 and Aug 2025. Google’s AI Overviews are getting sued by publishers. Nobody is being honest about how often they’re wrong. So I’m building CLYCITE a search engine where every answer is grounded in live retrieved sources, every claim has a citation, and we publicly publish our own accuracy rate by category. If we get it wrong 12% of the time on medical queries, you can see that. No other engine does this. On top of that, the vision is to add agents that help you go deeper after you get an answer verify a specific claim, compare what 5 sources actually say, monitor a topic for changes. Not autonomous agents doing things for you. Agents that show you their work step by step. honest questions for this community: Does a public accuracy dashboard actually change how you’d trust a search engine or would you ignore it? Would you pay $12/month for a search engine that cites every answer and never shows ads? What does “better than Google” actually mean to you in 2026? What would make you switch from Perplexity or ChatGPT? I’m not here to pitch. I’m here because this community will tell me if I’m solving a real problem or building something nobody asked for.
