SIRI NOT THE END OF VOICE SEARCH/AI Apps APIs Proprietary and confidential 12

AI CHANGES SEARCH BEHAVIOR Proprietary and confidential 13

VOICE SEARCH CHANGES SEARCH BEHAVIOR • “Say What? Why users choose to speak their web queries”, Maryam Kamvar Garret and Doug Beeferman, 2010: http://www.maryamgarrett.com/Interspeech_v4.pdf • Google Logs-based study of “factors that are correlated with a decision to speak a web search query rather than type it” • Data from 75,000 random users speaking 1MM queries into Google Blackberry app in Summer 2009 • Intended for voice navigation interface design, but useful to marketers looking to understand voice search Proprietary and confidential 14

VOICE SEARCH CHANGES SEARCH BEHAVIOR • Local and shopping queries most likely to be spoken • Need for hands-free navigation (e.g. searcher is driving) • Adult queries least likely to be spoken Proprietary and confidential 15

VOICE SEARCH CHANGES SEARCH BEHAVIOR • Maps results most likely to be returned from spoken queries • Queries longer than 6 words more likely to be typed Proprietary and confidential 16

SUMMARY 1. Siri has limited reach, but is the start of larger trend toward voice search and artificial intelligence 2. Understand relevance of query to user intent and context 3. Optimize for Google, not just Siri 4. Optimize for local search, as voice search users most likely to be looking for information around them 5. Provide a simple, mobile interface, as voice searchers most likely to require a hands-free experience Proprietary and confidential 17
