Microsoft introduces NLWeb, an open-source tool to integrate generative AI search into any website, making it an AI-powered application through natural language capabilities.
NLWeb aims to simplify the creation of natural language interfaces for websites, allowing users to query website content using voice commands similar to AI assistants like ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot.
The project leverages semistructured data and large language models (LLMs) to create natural language interfaces accessible to both humans and AI agents, enriching queries with external knowledge.
NLWeb is designed to be technology-agnostic, supports major operating systems beyond Windows, and has already been adopted by websites like Tripadvisor, Shopify, and Eventbrite, with contributions from various organizations.
