A special feature of GAIS is that it allows error-tolerant and homophonous searches. Thus, for instance, searches for "Clinton" or "Beethoven" will still yield results if the Chinese characters entered are different from the ones habitually used for these names, as long as their pronunciation is similar.
「蓋世」的特色在，具有容錯、同音的搜尋功能，例如「美國總統柯林頓可以符合克林頓」、「偶像歌手范小瑄等於范曉萱」、「背多分可以找到樂聖貝多芬」等。
