Search is boring and forgettable. SearchSquatch makes every query an experience people actually want to share. Our Sasquatch transforms the boring blue-link search experience into an unforgettable character-driven cinematic interaction — and he roasts every single result. A Bigfoot in a suit and tie reacts to your query, reads every headline out loud, drops his unfiltered 400-year-old opinion, and personally roasts the results with a custom AI-generated punchline every time — all in real-time with a custom cloned voice. No two searches are the same. You can also talk to him directly through a live AI avatar. We believe in the near future, every brand, celebrity, and business will interact with their audience in this format — character-driven, voice-powered, personality-first. SearchSquatch is the proof of concept for what's coming. Firecrawl's Search API powers every query — up to 40 real-time web results that feed both the CRT display and the voice script. A dedicated agent endpoint also lets the D-ID avatar call Firecrawl as a tool for data processing or caching after the conversation ends. We used a custom cloned voice via TTS for all reactions and headline reading, ElevenLabs Agents via Conversational AI WebSocket API for contextual commentary generation, and Sound Effects API for the ambient office atmosphere. Every search gets a unique voice performance!
