Mumbai-based developer Zaid Mukaddam created an open-source AI search engine platform called MiniPerplx, inspired by Perplexity, with over 60,000 monthly users.
Groq, an AI hardware company, helped scale the platform with additional computing resources and Alibaba's Qwen AI models after a surge in internet traffic.
Mukaddam's platform is powered by frameworks like Next.js, Tailwind CSS, and utilizes AI models for user queries as well as Tavily's API and Exa AI for web searches and content analysis.
Scria AI, the platform, provides detailed insights across various topics and was accepted into the Vercel AI accelerator program to support scaling and interaction with industry leaders.
