Hound is the best way for you to search with your natural voice.
What does natural voice mean? Instead of speaking like a search query, “OK Hound… Find Chinese Restaurants”, ask “OK Hound… What top-rated Chinese restaurants are near me?” The response time is lightning fast and you’ll be stunned.
You want to do something more? You can ask Hound follow-up questions or use commands to filter, sort, and add additional information to your original request. This is a great way to try it: “OK Hound… Search for Asian restaurants within walking distance from Times Square.
