A new internet economy, built for agents:
Agents break the old economics of the internet - when everyone has an AI assistant consuming and taking actions, what happens to ads?
Exa Connect is a step toward a new internet economy built on data, not ads. It's a marketplace where data providers choose what to charge for their data, and developers choose which data providers their agents use.
We feel this is the right economic model -- market-based, transparent, value-aligned, and as agent requests scale >1000x over the coming years, will be a more valuable market for providers than the ad market is today.
This is also a good path forward for the internet. It's one that monetizes transformer attention, not human attention.
We don't know exactly what that great intercontinental information exchange called the internet will become, but it's going to change, and we think very much for the better.
Introducing Exa Agent: frontier web research at less than half the cost of GPT 5.5 and Opus.
/agent orchestrates a mixture of cost-effective models to complete any web research task, from simple data enrichments to building gigantic lists.
The wildest adventure alongside generous and genius teammates... building search from scratch, thinking about knowledge as a crucial civilizational unit, and discovering so much fun and meaning on the way.
Still so much to do and friends to do it with - come along!
We're excited to partner with Google to offer Grounding With Exa inside of Gemini models!

A search engine has many moving parts, and they constantly change with scale of index and traffic.
In this blog post, we dive into the code-level abstractions we've built to develop search infrastructure that is both performant and a joy to work with.

First day in SF and already met Dario Amodei while petting puppies
Told him what I was building and the guy invited me for an interview
SF is truly the greatest city on Earth
girly life things I wanna build with claude (keep me accountable)
- track my shopping and returns so I can stop using my google spreadsheet
