# The Infrastructure of the Digital Economy Era Adot is an infrastructure built for the decentralization era to facilitate a smooth flow of data in the digital world. This infrastructure bridges traditional and decentralized applications and protocols, revolutionizes the way to organize data, and improves the user search experience. Adot provides decentralized indexing protocols, intelligent search applications, and open-source data frameworks for the entire Web3 industry, and enables the transition from traditional to smart search, building a complete and effective search ecosystem. ## Decentralized Indexing Protocol Adot builds a decentralized protocol that allows builders to index, query, and freely composite data from both blockchain and traditional internet sources. Empowered by linking on-chain and off-chain information, Adot is designed to help developers build their own products and applications under the umbrella of the Adot search ecosystem and access data that is difficult to access directly. ## Smart and Universal Search Engine Application Built on Web3 and open to everyone, Adot Search is a decentralized universal intelligent search engine that serves as a gateway to Web3 for users and developers with all the necessary features (e.g. user interface, on-chain & off-chain data, incentives, compliance, KYC) and services needed to interact with the web. ## Open-Source Data Framework Adot provides efficient data tools to implement Adot indexing technology into your ideas and build your own projects, a modular open-source framework that can run in no-code or low-code mode and is designed to drive the adoption of Adot infrastructure and help collect decentralized data in the network for ecological development and internal economic activities. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
