Developed in partnership with Sapient Corporation, WebTurbo was created by people who, like yourself, wanted a more efficient way of locating relevant information on the Web. Next thing you know, the concept of previewing the Web was developed. Now you can browse the Web with the speed and preciseness you’ve always wanted. We think it’s a smarter way to navigate the Web. All you have to do is download WebTurbo and complete the simple installation process.

WebTurbo's powerful search function allows you to query the six most popular search engines at once using "smart queries" to quickly bring back more relevant results than if you used each search engine directly. WebTurbo identifies results delivered by each search engine and removes duplicates from the list.
When you click on an individual search result, enter a URL (Web site address), or select a bookmark, WebTurbo uses its hypersketch outline technology to rapidly deliver previews of the contents of the selected Web page. These previews, presented in an intuitive outline format, are not just hyperlink lists, or the first 100 characters on the page, but meaningful summaries of the page.
WebTurbo allows you to rapidly browse the Web at the preview level, letting you see the contents and links of a page in outline format in a fraction of the time it takes to load the entire page. When you find what you want, double-click and the full page appears.
WebTurbo's side by side preview frame and page view frame lets you view your search results and previews while also viewing Web pages. Double-clicking on an item in the preview frame loads the underlying Web page in the page view frame. The preview frame is always visible as you view selected pages, so you don't lose your search results and previews, or forget which pages you've already seen.
Using WebTurbo's search function, you can submit searches on related topics simultaneously. For example, a query about two sub-topics of Stanford University, the Stanford orchestra and rowing teams, yields results for both, organized by sub-topic.
WebTurbo organizes search results and previews into topic folders. For example, you can create a separate folder for each university you are interested in attending, with each folder containing search results and previews on the specific areas you of interest to you. Move between topic folders to quickly compare information between the universities. You can save the topic folders (with their search results and previews) and retrieve them later to browse further.
