Liner

Liner is a South Korean AI search engine built for students, researchers, and knowledge workers, designed to return answers grounded in verifiable, high-quality sources rather than unsourced generative output. Founded in 2015 in Seoul, the company evolved from a web-highlighting tool into an AI search platform powered by its own source-curation LLM, and serves more than 10 million users across 220+ countries, with the majority of its paying subscribers based in the United States.
