Relcy was an American corporation specializing in mobile search. It was a stealth mode company funded by Sequoia Capital and Khosla Ventures.[1][2] Relcy was founded by Rohit Satapathy and Nitin Gupta in mid-2013, with funding obtained after a cold tweet to Keith Rabois of Khosla Ventures.[2]

The company received both positive[3] and negative[4] criticism for re-attempting a search start-up with Google having dominated the industry for over a decade.

In February 2016, Relcy added a messaging system to its mobile search engine and announced the launch of an Android app.[5]

In June 2016, Relcy announced they were shutting down.[6]
