About Dogpile.com

InfoSpace created the Dogpile search engine because your time and curiosity are important to us. In an era when convenience outweighs accuracy and defaults override choice, we prioritize classic search results: no presumptive overviews, no forced chat, just links to real websites.

Gathering up relevant information matters so much to us that it even inspired our name! In rugby, players come together and pile on top of one another. At Dogpile, we compile all the best results in one easy-to-access place.

And because every good team needs a loyal mascot, we adopted Arfie. You can find him any time on Dogpile, where he works as a retriever of sorts. When you search the web on Dogpile, he's quick to fetch the results you want when you want them.
