About Tavily
Tavily helps developer teams give AI agents live access to the web through one API, rather than building search and page-fetching infrastructure themselves. Its distinct angle is combining search, extraction, crawling, and research in the same toolkit.

Key Features
The API covers both finding web sources and bringing their content into agent workflows:
Search
Find web results for an agent’s query.
Extract
Retrieve content from specified URLs in Markdown or another supported format.
Crawl and map
Discover pages on a site, then retrieve content from selected pages.
Research
Run a dedicated research operation for more involved web questions.
Setup prompts
Copy setup guidance for tools including Claude, Codex, and Cursor.
Worth Knowing
Credit use varies by operation, so a request count alone won’t predict usage:
- Advanced search costs twice as much as basic search: 2 credits per request versus 1. [1]
- Research has a wide per-request credit range: 4–110 credits with the mini model and 15–250 with the pro model. [1]
- The free plan includes 1,000 credits per month; requests stop when credits run out until they reset or you upgrade. [2]
Who It's For
Best for developer teams building web-enabled AI agents, product teams adding current web content to assistants, and data science teams that need a web search and retrieval API.
