Hey everyone! I work at Algolia and we've heard feedback from the HN community and have made some changes recently that provides 100x more records for free so that you can use larger data sets. We have also made it so that all of the core platform functionality is available in the new free plan (we call it the "Build" plan now) so that you can fully evaluate and use everything before ever having to pull out a credit card.<p>Would love to hear any thoughts on these changes as well as any other things we might do to help you power great search experiences.
Will you ever provide sorting in different directions without the need to create a separate index for each direction?<p>we have 10 sorting parameters and would need to create/pay/maintain 20 identical indexes while just wasting energy/money/time.<p>Sorting seems to be so trivial for a search engine but for you it seems to be the holy grail?
