Transforming Information Into Knowledge.

seekwhens was born from a seemingly simple question: "There has to be a better way than the status quo to conduct online research, right?" There is, and - as we soon discovered - we were far from the only ones looking for a way to reduce information overload during research. We also realized that most alternatives out there focus on just one thing: the search itself. But search ≠ knowledge, so here we are building a new home for your research :)

We Aspire to be Better

Independent & Unbiased

We believe that knowledge should be objective, rational and unbiased. That's why we will never sell our community's data, so our platform will always be ad-free.

Factual & High Quality

We cross-reference reliable, established and reputable sources to cut through the noise and enable you to safely build your trusted knowledge base.

Collaborative & Open

We hope to foster synergies in research by building a vibrant community centered around expanding our collective knowledge and expertise.

Reliable & Safe

We understand that poking holes, investigating and uncovering truths can be a sensitive topic. That's why we protect your data and your research.
