Cuil is a search engine first developed by the American web company Cuil, Inc. It was first available to the public on August 7, 2009.
The name “Cuil” is an Irish word meaning “knowledge”. Cuil was created as an alternative to Google’s PageRank system. Its purpose was to find more relevant results than those found by Google or Yahoo! Search, with its formula designed to index the web with human input rather than using an automated algorithm. It provides three levels of search: Cuil Basic Search, Cuil Pulse Search and Cuil Power Search.
Cuils main slogan is “Searching for Knowledge.” It focuses primarily on its cursor-based interface and minimalist design. While it had been touted as a potential rival for Google, it never achieved any significant market share. As of 2017, there were no signs that Cuils relevancy had improved since its inception in 2009.

Are there any drawbacks to using Cuil?
Cuil is a fast, easy-to-use online platform that allows you to track, analyze and report on your Google Analytics data. It’s free to use, but there are plenty of paid options available.
​You can choose the amount of data you want to track, how often you want to analyze and what type of reports you want: real-time analytics or historical reports. You also have the option to control who can access your reporting and who can export your data.
For example, if you’ve been asked by a potential customer not to share details about their social media profiles with competitors or other brands, Cuil lets you set limits for who can export your data – for example only customers or only leads – based on the agreed upon agreement between both parties.
