## How Finkkle Search works

Finkkle Search understands the intent behind your query, not just the keywords. When you search, the engine finds the most relevant web results, personalizes rankings based on your preferences, and enriches the page with knowledge panels, utility cards, and vertical content — all before the results page loads.
