Relcy is an American corporation specializing in mobile search. It is a stealth mode company funded by Sequoia Capital and Khosla Ventures.[1][2] Relcy was founded by Rohit Satapathy and Nitin Gupta[3] in mid-2013, notably with funding obtained by a cold tweet to Keith Rabois of Khosla Ventures.

The company has already received both positive[4] and negative[5] criticism for re-attempting a search start-up with Google having dominated the industry for over a decade.
