      What are the main features of Collide?

      Collide is where energy pros connect, share knowledge, and get AI-powered answers—all in one platform.

      • Community Feed: Where energy pros go to ask and answer tough, technical questions — and connect with others who’ve been in their shoes. Have a question you need help with? Throw it out to the community and get helpful answers. Have expertise to share? Jump in and answer some questions. Build your reputation in the space. Add your questions in our regular AMAs with industry leaders like Toby Rice and Bryan Sheffield.
      • Collide AI: Collide AI is our AI-powered search engine using RAG technology—purpose-built for the energy industry. It combines RAG with conversational AI to deliver contextually relevant, accurate, and source-cited results tailored to energy professionals. The engine is powered by a proprietary energy-specific knowledge base, including technical textbooks, white papers, industry standards, and the full data repository from the Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG). With no outside noise, Collide AI provides precise, trustworthy answers using data general-purpose models like OpenAI and Google can’t access.
      • Watts: Watts power up your Collide profile. Like Reddit karma or Stack Overflow reputation, but made for oil and gas. Every watt you earn reflects the real value you bring to the community, proving you actually know your stuff. Build a dynamic resume that shows off your energy-industry chops and opens doors to your next big opportunity. Learn more about Watts here.
      • Live Chat: Our live chat box –  it's like AIM for energy pros. Whether you want to ask a quick question, see who’s online, or just start a conversation, you can now chat in real time with others in the community.
      • Video Search Engine: Search through 3,000+ energy-specific videos. Our AI indexes every topic mentioned, so you can find the info you need quickly through transcripts and video playback.
      • Anonymous Profiles: Want to ask a question or share a thought without tying it to your name? With anon mode, your activity shows up under a separate anonymous profile. Great for exploring and engaging without the spotlight.
