Metasearch engines are programs that search multiple search engine databases by submitting a user's search query to various search engines and aggregating the results. They work by sending search queries to other search engine databases and compiling the results without needing to maintain their own indexes, as they rely on being able to access updates from the underlying search engines. Metasearch engines provide a live, up-to-date search experience by tapping into the constantly updating databases of other search engines.
