Our SMS Search offering enables wireless users to search the internet from all types of GSM mobile phones. This system communicates with mobile devices through SMS text messages. The user sends the queries as a text message to a short code (usually "111"), and our system sends back the responses quickly as text messages, usually within 1-2 secs. This is a powerful low cost functionality for millions of mobile users who do not have access to the internet.

- Search of web content through Google, MSN Live and Yahoo
- Search for meaning of words and thesaurus entries through online Dictionary
- Search of Encyclopedia & Wikipedia database entries
- Search for addresses, locations and online public directories
- Search Flight status information through flightstats.com
