Easy mode vs. Advanced mode
The search panel has a toggle in the top-right between two ways of searching:- Easy mode: describe what you are looking for in a single sentence and let ISTARI’s AI agent interpret it. The agent picks the right search method (see below), fills in any filters (location, size, industry), and runs the query for you. Best if you’re not sure which search method fits.
- Advanced mode: you pick the search method yourself and configure filters manually. Best when you want precise control or know exactly how you want to query.
Three ways to search
In Advanced mode, the search panel has a dropdown that lets you pick between three distinct search methods. Each is suited to a different starting point:| Search method | When to use it | Page |
|---|---|---|
| Describe organizations | You have a market description or idea in your head but no specific organization or keywords. Natural-language semantic search. | Semantic Search |
| Use a similar website | You know a reference organization and want to find others like it. | Similarity Search |
| Use keywords | You want exact term matching with full control over which words define a hit. | Keyword Search |
