November 16, 2006 - Quintura, which just launched its See & Find™ visual find engine at www.quintura.com, announced that it raised a significant amount of venture capital from Mangrove Capital Partners of Luxembourg, an early-stage investor in Skype, ABRT Venture Fund and the partners of OpenView Venture Partners of Boston. The deal is the first Western VC investment made in an Internet company from Russia.

"We have found the team of Mangrove being a visionary investor and very intelligent partner in developing our consumer driven Internet business." said Yakov Sadchikov, co-founder and CEO of Quintura. "We plan using the venture capital to take the Web by storm and reach millions of web users globally when launching the Quintura visual find engines for various user communities. We are also starting an affiliate program for most popular web-sites and blogs such as Digg, Netscape, and others where they can easily make their current tag clouds very interactive.

Quintura has approached the problem of a mostly inefficient web search from the standpoint of the end-user. Quintura developed a powerful find engine that is very close to the natural way of thinking and finding information. Using advanced neural networking techniques, Quintura made visualization the center of the user experience, providing users with a visual and intuitive way to see and refine their searches.

Quintura has a unique user interface displaying an interactive visual cloud of related keywords and phrases in addition to a traditional list of search results. While viewing the Quintura cloud, users can visually navigate and easily refine in order to find relevant information faster and more efficiently. While the user refines the search, the results are dynamically updated to match a new search query. Users can also save and share their find results. Join us at www.quintura.com to find, save and share your most relevant results.
