Good question. There is now a default local-only search option that has virtually no latency.

Will look into this.

The exposed API key is temporary while a backend is setup. The IP address is not stored by Scout - will look into the OpenAI policy.

Yes this is the case.

It relies on an external search API. No data is recorded or saved

Thanks for the feedback. I'm still busy putting together the parts of this project which is why the privacy policy is barren. Scout doesn't save what you search, it's doing a direct call to a search API, but at no point is what you search recorded.

Good idea, will get on that.

It's just a browser extension for now - maybe one day soon.

I'm still seeing where I will take this project, but yes I agree with you.

Good point, I'll look into this to see if performance is improved.

Oh yeah. I was annoyed with ctrl+f and its exact spelling requirement, so I wrote an NLP based ctrl+f replacement that works pretty damn well.
