Agentic AI Without the Baggage: Why SWIRL + MCP is the Smarter AI Search Stack
There’s a common misconception in enterprise AI:If your AI agent needs access to internal knowledge, you first need to build a vector database. It sounds logical until you actually try it.

The Data Strikes Back—Search Requires More Than Force
“The first amendment, the second amendment, the third amendment, the fourth amendment, the fifth amendment…” “Stop!” “The sixth amendment, the seventh amendment, the eighth amendment…” “Alexa, stop!” “The ninth amendment, the tenth amendment, the 11th amendment, the 12th amendment…” “Alexa STOP!” “The 13th amendment, the 14th amendment…” “ALEXA STOP!” One of my kids asked me...

Speaking Human—Conversational Search With AI
It’s time to stop searching in a foreign language. Working with computers forces people to think like a computer and communicate in a language the computer understands.

AI is evolving at an unprecedented pace. Every few months, a new model emerges—faster, smarter, more specialized than the last.

Why Waste Time Running Through Endless Search Results? Let Your AI Do the Walking
The promise of enterprise search was simple: type a query, get what you need, and move on with your work. The reality? Endless results, duplicate documents, buried insights, and hours of sifting through data just to find a single relevant answer. Enterprise search isn’t just broken—it’s outdated.
