A new frontier class of web research agents. A single API to access frontier web research capabilities at a fraction of the cost.

Introducing Exa Agent

TL;DR

  • Exa Agent is a single API for frontier web research capabilities at a lower cost.
  • It combines top language models with Exa's web search tools for exhaustive and accurate results.
  • Effective for deep research, list-building, and entity enrichment.
  • Handles large datasets by dividing tasks into subtasks and assigning subagents.
  • Uses a fusion of frontier and cost-effective models for efficient research methodology.
  • Quantifies performance using public benchmarks for quality, latency, cost, and token efficiency.
  • Aims to provide the best web research agent with low cost and latency through model fusion and token-efficient highlights.
  • Companies can integrate Exa Agent into their own agent products.
  • Finance agents can use it for real-time data retrieval and aggregation.
  • Go-to-market agents can use it for enriching existing lists or generating new ones.
  • Offers dynamic scaling of compute with 'auto' effort, or fixed costs with adjustable effort levels (`minimal` to `xhigh`).
  • Supports structured outputs via `outputSchema` and custom data input via `input.data`.
