# Ocásek (Warp) Search Engine # Warp (Ocásek) Search Engine
A self-hosted private and anonymous [metasearch engine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metasearch_engine), that aims to be more resource effichent and scalable.

A self-hosted private and anonymous [metasearch engine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metasearch_engine), that aims to be more resource effichent and scalable than its competetion.

So you can comfortably use [officiall instance](https://search.spitfirebrowser.com/), or self-host your own instance.
