Powerset has announced the launch of its first product, which reinvents the search and discovery experience for Wikipedia articles. Powerset has a unique way of searching through articles in Wikipedia, which is a free, multilingual, open content encyclopedia project operated by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation.

Powerset also finds articles present in Freebase, created by Metaweb Technologies, which is an open database of the world’s information.

Powerset searches articles based on a broad topic, a simple question, or more complex questions and phrases. While a user searches for an article in Powerset search Engine, the user will be immediately greeted by hundreds of topics from Wikipedia and Freebase. Near to the heading of every topic, there is a tiny button known as Miniviewer , while a user clicks on this button the user will find small window which shows the enter topic as found in the Wikipedia or Freebase.
