Ramanathan V. Guha, a Microsoft technical fellow who created RSS and Schema.org, developed NLWeb to democratize AI search by simplifying complex query handling.
NLWeb lets sites implement conversational interfaces with minimal code using their data and an AI model, supporting personalized and contextual user queries.
Microsoft partners with companies like TripAdvisor, Eventbrite, Shopify, and O'Reilly, which will integrate NLWeb for conversational search across 59,000 books, avoiding web crawling.
NLWeb aims to decentralize web search, allowing websites to interact and transact directly with AI agents, potentially playing a role similar to HTML in the agentic web.
