-## Features
+Perplexica's development is powered by the generous support of our sponsors. Their contributions help keep this project free, open-source, and accessible to everyone.
 
-- **Local LLMs**: You can utilize local LLMs such as Qwen, DeepSeek, Llama, and Mistral.
-- **Two Main Modes:**
-  - **Copilot Mode:** (In development) Boosts search by generating different queries to find more relevant internet sources. Like normal search instead of just using the context by SearxNG, it visits the top matches and tries to find relevant sources to the user's query directly from the page.
-  - **Normal Mode:** Processes your query and performs a web search.
-- **Focus Modes:** Special modes to better answer specific types of questions. Perplexica currently has 6 focus modes:
-  - **All Mode:** Searches the entire web to find the best results.
-  - **Writing Assistant Mode:** Helpful for writing tasks that do not require searching the web.
-  - **Academic Search Mode:** Finds articles and papers, ideal for academic research.
-  - **YouTube Search Mode:** Finds YouTube videos based on the search query.
-  - **Wolfram Alpha Search Mode:** Answers queries that need calculations or data analysis using Wolfram Alpha.
-  - **Reddit Search Mode:** Searches Reddit for discussions and opinions related to the query.
-- **Current Information:** Some search tools might give you outdated info because they use data from crawling bots and convert them into embeddings and store them in a index. Unlike them, Perplexica uses SearxNG, a metasearch engine to get the results and rerank and get the most relevant source out of it, ensuring you always get the latest information without the overhead of daily data updates.
-- **API**: Integrate Perplexica into your existing applications and make use of its capibilities.
