My use of traditional web search—especially Google—has dropped significantly. Instead, I now rely on specialized tools and contextual interfaces that serve my information needs far more efficiently.
With the rise of large language models and embedded conversational logic, new forms of research and data exploration are becoming possible—no longer dependent on “ten blue links.”
These systems deliver structured, context-aware responses—directly from data, not from websites.
I’m currently building several tools that take advantage of this shift:
- 🧰 Valuero.ch – Your digital car selling assistant: An intelligent, independent advisor that analyzes listings, estimates value, and provides actionable recommendations.
- 🔎 Direct search across semi-structured internal company data – A retrieval-free alternative to RAG that allows precise, exploratory interaction with data without building complex pipelines.
These tools aren’t futuristic concepts—they’re already working today, close to production and grounded in real-world use cases.
RAGs were yesterday. Tools are tomorrow.
If you’re interested in an introduction to the topic—or see a concrete use case for your context—feel free to reach out for an informal chat.
