As you are looking for websites, select “Search for websites” through the AI.

Searching by technology

You want, for example, to identify online retailers using Magento or PrestaShop in companies in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. You phrase your query in natural language. The AI automatically selects the e-commerce criterion, the technologies to identify (Magento or PrestaShop in this case) and the exact location. You can of course add any other criterion by hand, related either to the website or to the company that runs it: business sector, turnover, headcount, and so on.

Thematic search

You can also work on the thematic content of websites. For example, you want to identify e-commerce sites selling electric bikes. The AI adds a semantic search with specific keywords: electric bikes, e-bike, electrically assisted bicycle, and so on.

Refining the results

You notice that your results also include bike-rental sites. To exclude them, you can rephrase through the AI, simply asking it to remove bike-rental sites. The AI then adds new keywords to the semantic search, but above all excludes words related to rental: bike rental, bicycle hire, bike hire, and so on.

Semantic analysis

The magnifying-glass zoom next to each website lets you identify the semantic context in which Mixdata found your keywords: in the keyword cloud, in the web-page descriptions, in the page content, and so on.

Saving and managing

Once your query is refined, all that is left is to save your website list and give it a name; you will find it in the My lists tab.
