Tavily is a search API built from the ground up for AI agents and retrieval-augmented generation. A single call returns clean, relevance-scored results and can bundle an LLM-ready answer and full page content alongside them — exactly the shape a RAG pipeline needs, with no post-processing. Purpose-built for grounding and trusted across the agent ecosystem, it has become a default search layer for developers building reliable, source-backed AI applications.
Choose if
You want the agent/RAG default that returns a relevance score and optional answer in one call.
Avoid if
You need per-result dates or a documented compliance/SLA posture.
