'oo.ai' Reaches 1 Million Monthly Users in 6 Weeks

'oo.ai', which has opened a new horizon in AI search, recorded explosive growth, surpassing 1 million monthly active users (MAU) just 6 weeks after its launch. This innovative platform, launched by Open Research on March 17, achieved 430,000 MAU in just one month, and then spectacularly exceeded 1 million MAU in a mere 6 weeks. 'oo.ai' provides instant and accurate answers by deeply analyzing hundreds of web documents using AI technology when a user inputs a search query. It is characterized by significantly improving the user experience by automating complex search term variations and the process of comparing multiple web resources, which were previously required in the traditional search process. This remarkable growth overwhelms competing services. 'oo.ai' easily surpassed the 550,000 domestic MAU of global AI search platform Perplexity in March and also stood out in the mobile app market. It topped Naver in the Apple App Store's reference category and demonstrated its power by ranking in the top 7 in the Google Play Store's productivity category. Open Research attributes 'oo.ai''s success to its differentiated search experience. The core is that it generates search results within an average of 3 seconds and provides accurate and rich answers by utilizing more than 10 times the references compared to competitors. What's even more surprising is that all these cutting-edge features are provided for free, with performance exceeding that of paid AI search services. Continuous user-centric updates have also been effective. Since its launch, it has enhanced user convenience by adding features such as a 'tutorial' for recommended search terms by field and a 'continue search' feature to explore related information from a single search result. Furthermore, it has shown continuous evolution by quickly reflecting user-requested features such as 'search history', 'share answer report', and 'dark mode'. Kim Il-doo, CEO of Open Research, stated that "'oo.ai' has clearly demonstrated the necessity and utility of AI search, transcending the limitations of existing search services," and revealed ambitions to leapfrog into becoming a next-generation leader in the global AI search market through continuous service enhancement, including the addition of login and personalization features in the future.
