Pricing

Usage-based pay-as-you-go: public pricing lists Search at $7 per 1,000 requests, Contents at $1 per 1,000 pages, Answer at $5 per 1,000 requests, Monitors at $15 per 1,000 requests, and Agent at approximately $0.012-$1.00 per run depending on effort; enterprise pricing is customized.

Differentiators

• —Designed specifically for AI agents rather than human click behavior
• —Neural/embedding retrieval and link-prediction models rather than only keyword ranking
• —First-party web index, crawler and custom vector database rather than simply wrapping another search engine
• —Low-latency and high-compute search modes
• —Structured outputs, citations, page contents and extensive filtering/customization
• —Zero Data Retention and enterprise controls
• —Scale claims include hundreds of billions of tracked URLs and hundreds of thousands of searches per second
