Tavily

Agent-native search index T1 Search /tavily

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.

Call Tavily through the gateway

Same paths, parameters and responses as Tavily's native API — auxiliar injects the upstream key server-side and debits the provider's metered cost from your credits.

curl https://api.auxiliar.ai/tavily/<native-path> \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AUXILIAR_API_KEY"

Exact endpoints and parameters: docs.auxiliar.ai/tavily. An empty balance returns HTTP 402 — no silent degradation; see how billing behaves.

Choose if
