KeyPoint powers Xploree app with Yahoo Search

BENGALURU: Global linguistics innovation company KeyPoint Technologies (KPT) has signed a search partnership with Yahoo for KPT’s patent pending Search & Discovery platform Xploree.

KeyPoint indicates that Xploree offers users a seamless search experience, powered by Yahoo, in one tap across apps. Users won't need to leave the app they are engaged with, since they can search and browse for information without exiting the current app. Xploree with Yahoo Search is available free on Google Play.

“Our study has shown that 15% of app interactions on mobile devices have been with a clear intent to search,” said Sumit Goswami, CEO of KeyPoint Technologies. “With Xploree, we are thrilled to offer users a seamless search experience powered by Yahoo within their mobile apps. We see this integration as a key enabler in hyper-contextual search across apps on mobile and are confident that it will transform the users’ app experience,” commented Goswami.

“We've been expanding the footprint of Yahoo Search in Apps since the February launch at Yahoo's Mobile Developer Conference as we remain focused on making it easier for users to search and browse for information,” said Andre Vanier, VP, Head of Yahoo Search Mobile Syndication. “We are enthused about partnering with KeyPoint so that users don't need to leave Xploree to search the web.”
