Vtap is a mobile search service made only mobile browsers by Veveo. You won't find Vtap's technology on non-mobile browsers outside of the web-based browser they made for iPhone users. The search service is fine tuned for searching, browsing and viewing video but it can be used for searching audio and text, too.

The technology provides relevant video results by indexing video metadata, like tags and surrounding text, instead of actual video file innards. When users start typing search keywords into the query box, the search engine speedily starts returning relevant results based on the letters they have already started typing. Vtap can do this because their search technology indexes letters and characters instead of whole words like other search engines. This allows users to type in abbreviated search keywords instead of typing a whole word, which makes more sense for mobile users.«Less
