This is awesome! Way better than DigiKey’s search.

Thanks, that's why we built it! We're big digikey fans, and have spent hundreds of hours on the site, but that doesn't mean it's without room for improvement!

I was playing around with the search and AI tools and it's pretty sick overall!

The speed of the search was ok, but the AI stuff seems to take a minute. I'm not sure if I've just been spoiled by ChatGPT or if this is a product issue, but it definitely could be faster.

I like the sources that are shown in the deep dive search and the datasheet chat, but deep dive doesn't seem to be taking me to the actual page it references. I know I can just type in the page it says in the pdf viewer, but the datasheet page takes me straight there so why doesn't the deep dive source?

ChatGPT has definitely spoiled us all, but we're working to improve performance every day. Thus far we've usually prioritized accuracy over speed since there isn't much room for error in this industry, but hopefully our current response time is still faster than reading everything yourself. The sources not linking is a bug, should have it fixed today/tomorrow!
