>>We don’t store the files at all, we generate them on the fly at each request. How do you manage to get right image for a text?
Nice idea but please spend a couple of days browsing 9gag for inspiration on your frontpage. The examples are (imo) note even remotly funny. Would they be funny they would surely inspire usage of your website. Edit: The tech behind that seems to be interesting, tho. Good job.
Thanks for the feedback. As you mentioned, front page results are meant to demonstrate our tech. We are constantly trying to balance the humor side and that, however, making sure every result is funny is not very scalable.
Any chance you guys could talk more about how this is implemented? (I'd be interested in the tech stack as well)

Yeah I see. Maybe a few funny examples would suffice.
Wow, this is awesome. I've been toying with the idea of creating a GIF search engine (I find Giphy's search results rather weak). I'm impressed with Guggy's search results.

The second part is the creatively tagged image repository. Even though tech enables now to tag objects in images, it still can't do it in a creative and funny way, so for the moment we were aiming for quality rather than quantity (I do agree that massive existing GIF repositories do not yield desired results), whereas we have plans for extending our repository significantly in the future.
The third part is also what we consider a big advantage of Guggy, and that's the image rendering engine. That allows us to personalized each request, such that different users could potentially see different results for the same texts (imagine seeing them in a font that you like, and your friend sees them in a different font, but there are also other applications for this). The images are therefore rendered on the fly per each request and are never stored.
Hope that clears up the questions you had in mind.

How can you offer all those GIFs without infringing copyright?
I've worked with these guys and they're awesome, good luck Rotem and Shahar you're doing great!
