Flax is a powerful enterprise search solution platform, open source licensed under the GPL.

Flax can build searchable indexes of millions of documents in common formats, of web pages or of items from existing databases, which can then be searched in milliseconds using a customisable interface to meet specific needs. Flax is cross-platform, integrates seamlessly with your existing infrastructure and provides highly accurate and relevant results.

Being open source, Flax software is free to download and use. There are no license fees or any other charges payable to use Flax. Users may also modify the Flax source code to suit specific needs, and Lemur Consulting, the developers of Flax, are pleased to undertake customisation work for clients as required.

Flax offers a high-performing, secure and stable search infrastructure with all the benefits of open source software, backed by expert support and maintenance. With no license fees payable, Flax is a highly cost-effective solution.
