I have to admit this has a great title.
I am familiar with Neeva and listened to the podcast with its founder which I recommend to people interested in the field.

I am a bit skeptical about the whole thing for two main reasons:
- Sridhar spent 15 years building the behemoth that is Google's ad business. It has to be hard to shrug off 'don't be evil until you do' culture and mindset that easily.
- I think they can do a good job at specialized searches (like the one illustrated in the article). But the problem is that the web search is general, not specialized. They can not expect the users to pay $30/mo and still go to Google for general searches. Bing API results are subpar to Google results.
I do welcome a paid model for a well executed search engine. I would personally pay $100/mo for one that meets my needs.
