Reel / StreamFolded into Discovery
The media catalog and recommendation work now lives in Argand Discovery.
The Argand constellation
One home for every Argand product.
Search is the flagship. Around it, focused tools help you find, understand, protect, create, and play—without turning your activity into a profile.
This is the public product record. The explanation stays here; when a working experiment exists, its profile offers a clearly labeled route to beta.argand.org.

Lineage, not loose ends
Where the other names went.
Names changed, projects combined, and some experiments ended. Keeping that history visible is more honest than padding the product count.
Time MachineFolded into PressTrace
Article history became PressTrace’s change, citation, and correction timeline.
Visual SearchRenamed Lens
The reverse-image service continues under the clearer Lens identity.
Weather APIPart of Nimbus
Forecast, observation, alert, air-quality, and radar APIs belong to Nimbus.
Recommendations APIPart of Discovery
Developer recommendation surfaces should share Discovery’s catalog and quality gates.
Potato ModeDeployment profile
The low-resource single-binary search build is a way to run Search, not another product.
AtlasInternal only
The local architecture atlas intentionally documents private infrastructure and is not for public deployment.
ForgeRetired prototype
The model-registry experiment was deliberately removed from the active workspace.
PulseRetired prototype
The native observability experiment was deliberately removed from the active workspace.
ApacheSearch experiment
