Parsek, the one-developer search engine

parsek.app Observed source

Editorial interest 79/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An independent search engine that runs on its own crawler and index rather than Google.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-13 issue.

Field notes

Parsek presents its search infrastructure as part of the product: the homepage identifies a crawler, an independent index, and a statement that Google is not used underneath. Its visible counters report 99,380 indexed pages and 206 searches during the last 24 hours. Around the search box, the project sells a small advertising surface with masthead placements, keyword bidding, and site submission. The page identifies the builder as one developer but does not expose the ranking method or crawler coverage.
