Does PulseSearch replace Google?

It replaces the opinion-search behavior where users already add Reddit, YouTube, TikTok, or creator names to a query.

Can this use real APIs?

Yes. YouTube API, Reddit OAuth, TikTok proxy/scraping, OpenAI, Redis, Postgres, and search-engine adapters are separated behind service boundaries.

How does authenticity ranking work?

The ranking system blends firsthand detail, engagement quality, creator credibility, toxicity risk, recency, and duplicate suppression.

Where does monetization fit?

Sponsored results, premium insights, creator analytics, trend intelligence, enterprise dashboards, and API access can be added without cluttering search.
