An innovative brand of search engine is ready to answer your queries with a human touch thanks to Silicon Valley veteran Jason Calacanis who actually lives in Southern California. Mahalo.com is a “human powered search engine,” that puts an end to the lengthy lists of bogus search results so commonly returned by the algorithmic process of giants like Google. The answers are tailored to every specific question, cutting out the spam and nonsense and skipping to the core of the user’s inquiry with the most relevant results. The people behind Mahalo are here to lend a helping hand and make it easy for you to find what you’re really looking for.

IntimateMath visited the Mahalo office and got a feel for what it’s like to be a part of the Mahalo family. Calacanis’s enthusiasm for his project spreads seamlessly to his staff, and he sees to it that they’re well taken care of at the workplace.

Mahalo also has an on-site exercise facility to keep the team energized. The office even has a washer and dryer for laundry days and an Xbox to fill any spare time. If the facilities weren’t enough to keep his team happy, Calacanis’s ear is always open to new ideas or friendly conversation with the people who keep Mahalo running. He even ranks his editors’ performances with his own brand of karate belts, ranging from the traditional white through yellow, green, purple, brown and black; a fitting choice for a man who has actually earned a real black belt in Taekwondo. As Mahalo.com continues to grow, Jason Calacanis is proving that a happy team is all the more happy to help you when you need it.
