This is advanced search.
It's available in pretty much every app and site we use.
But advanced search is complicated.
Covering all your bases is exhausting.
Sometimes, you still don't get the right things.
Sometimes, you don't get anything at all.
And searching somewhere else means learning it all again.
Finding what you need should not be this hard.

a search bar with a brain.

We're tired of advanced search.

We're a team of engineers, advanced search specialists, Boolean experts, and query nerds. We know firsthand how complex and challenging advanced search can be—we've struggled with it ourselves.

We've built lists and lists of synonyms. We've strung them together with endless ANDs, ORs, and NOTs. We've wrestled with proprietary rules and syntax. We've debated between parentheses, quotation marks, and all kinds of squiggly brackets.

And every time we finally click ‘search,’ we're still never sure we've covered everything.

That's why we built Q52: an advanced query editor.

(We know—another “advanced” tool is the last thing you need. But hear us out.)

Advanced search is about more than a handful of keywords. We like to think it's half science, half art: it requires a deep understanding of what you're searching for, what context it's in, and how to use Boolean algebra to tell a computer where that is. Getting all that right takes a lot of effort.

From us to you.

Q52 started as an internal tool, just for us. As professional search nerds, our daily workflow includes a lot of query writing, so we built ourselves a little editor to see if we could make our lives easier.

And as it turns out, we can.

We compose robust queries and search strings blazingly fast now. We don't need to worry about syntax. We don't need to question whether we've covered all our bases. It just works.

We've been busy perfecting that little internal tool for a while now. And somewhere along the way, we've realized that other people might find it as useful as we do.

So we're rebuilding it from the ground up, and this time we're calling it Q52. We're renovating it so it works not only for us, but for anyone else whose time is more valuable than a string of ANDs and brackets. (That's everyone.)

Come join in.

We want to introduce Q52 to the world because advanced search should be simple for everyone, everywhere. We think it should be simple for you too.

We'll be rolling out invites soon. Type in your email to join the waitlist.
