Tavily
The real-time search engine for AI agents and RAG workflows

Tavily is a real-time web search and content extraction API designed for AI agents and RAG workflows. It retrieves live web data, structures and chunks it for language models, and includes built-in safeguards against PII leakage, prompt injection, and malicious sources. The platform handles over 100 million monthly requests with a 99.99% uptime SLA and sub-200ms p50 latency.
Tavily exposes a single secure API that performs real-time web search, extracts and structures relevant content, and returns it chunked and ready for language models to reason over.
