Linkup

We're building the next generation web search engine, connecting your applications and AI agents to the internet.

24 hours, no sleep, limitless red bull, cash prize.

Our CTO Denis spent the weekend with dev teams at the @hcompany_ai x @42AI_ hackathon building agents that can use a computer.

Voice-first copilot "H Companion" took the €5k. Very good.

Great to partner alongside @gladia_io and @stripe. Paris is building.

Linkup × @AFP: verified, real-time journalism, built for agents who need an edge.

Get it now.

[Linkup @Linkup_platform]

From war zone to your AI agent in 60 seconds.

That’s how fast critical @AFP news dispatches now land in Linkup search.

[Linkup @Linkup_platform]

The open web runs behind the story.

For finance, government and other business-critical teams, that gap is the whole game.

"retrieval is solved” - said nobody in our office last thursday

30+ researchers and engineers, @cohere, @Sorbonne_Univ_ and Linkup Research arguing about sparse vs dense until the wine ran out

which it didn't for at least 6 hours

Field Notes #1: On Retrieval. #2 is coming

[Linkup @Linkup_platform]

It's official: we are partnering with AFP to bring verified journalism to AI agents.

[Linkup @Linkup_platform]

AFP is the first partner of its kind. It won’t be the last as Linkup continues to build a new, fair economy of information sharing for AI agents, enterprises and publishers alike.

Press release in the comments.

[Respan @RespanAI]

Everything is a plugin: providers, MCP, routing, fallbacks. Each one takes a few lines in config.

Here’s an example with OpenAI and @Linkup_platform, a web search integration we natively support:

[providers.openai]
vendor = "openai"
key = "env:OPENAI_API_KEY"

[tools.linkup]
vendor = "linkup"
key = "env:LINKUP_API_KEY"

Switch on the tool loop, and GPT can search the web with Linkup. Your app stays a plain chat call.

How we built Mercator: https://t.co/InkW0uQtUP

[Linkup @Linkup_platform]

One of our early crawl runs hit a test site with no delay between requests.

Within minutes it was returning 500s. We’d knocked it offline.

Now Mercator, our crawler, visits each site at most once a second.

To still read billions of pages a day, going fast meant going wide.
