Hound is the best way to search using your natural voice.

What do we mean by natural voice? Instead of talking like a search query "OK Hound…find Chinese restaurants" just ask "OK Hound… what are the top rated Chinese restaurants near me?" You'll be amazed at the lightning-fast response.

Want to try something more advanced? Hound can use follow-up questions and commands to filter sort or add more information to the original request. Give this a shot: "OK Hound… find Asian restaurants rated 4 stars or more within walking distance of Times Square and exclude Chinese Korean and Thai."
