About us

Why we built MevaSearch

MevaSearch is a private search engine for anyone who wants clean, honest results without being tracked. You pay a small subscription, and in return we leave your data alone and show you the web without ads or big tech filters.

Where results come from

We combine our own WebAtlas index with the Brave Search API, the Mojeek API and specialised sources such as CIRCL Vulnerability-Lookup, Open Library, OpenAlex, Europe PMC, Zenodo, Stack Overflow, MDN Web Docs, Codeberg. That keeps us independent and gives you relevant results.

Protection from scam sites

NetKrypton is built right into the search engine. It checks links as results load and flags dangerous or fake sites before you click.

No filter bubble

We don’t guess your opinions or interests. You see the same honest results as everyone else, without an algorithm quietly steering you.

Best-quality results: SeagullXLogic

We built SeagullXLogic ourselves to look after the quality of results in all 19 languages of MevaSearch. What really answers your question goes to the top, and weak or misleading pages stay lower.

Our journey

What we have done so far

On October 25, 2024, the idea for a Polish web search engine was born. That day the first line of code was written for a project still called “Meva Engine”. It was the historic beginning of our search engine, built back then as a hobby, just for fun. The idea was set aside for a while and came back in April 2025, when Igor Oprządek started improving the project and renamed it MevaSearch. The search engine officially launched in May 2025.
