A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This is what I felt about Neeva, too. Metered searches meant I only used it when I "needed" it... By which point I was mired in search results and focused on my Google Fu and completely forgot about Neeva.
I get that it costs money to run, but they needed a long free trial to get me hooked, then a reasonably priced unlimited tier. I was never going to use a site that restricts my search volume.
There was a limit to Neeva? I payed $55/year for unlimited searches, but maybe I was in some tier that became unavailable or something.
I think that has set my price expectations.
iirc, their trial tier was 100 searches total, or something like. I could never adequately test it so I never converted to a paid user.
