Our take

The vast majority of human knowledge is still not on the internet. Most of it is trapped in the form of experience in people's heads, or buried in books and papers. Quora is changing this.

For a decade now, Quora has been carefully cultivating an intelligent question-and-answer community; it’s quietly becoming a database of some of the most thoughtful and useful content on the web.

With its steadily increasing number of monthly users and a revenue stream funded by advertising and subscriptions, Quora is now worth over a billion dollars. It is further building on this success with the introduction of AI functionality, which allows subscribers to ask questions to bots powered by OpenAI and Anthropic models.
