Own crawl index + Research API T2 Search /youcom

You.com offers a web search API powered by its own index, plus a higher-order Research API that returns synthesized, cited answers to multi-step questions. It’s tuned specifically for grounding language models, with controls like domain boosting to steer results toward sources you trust. The mix of raw retrieval and ready-made research output makes it a flexible backend for everything from quick lookups to deep, agent-driven investigation.

Call You.com through the gateway

Same paths, parameters and responses as You.com'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/youcom/<native-path> \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AUXILIAR_API_KEY"

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

Choose if

You want an independent index with soft domain-boosting and a cited Research API.

Avoid if

You need a flat result shape (results live under results.web[] with snippets[] — needs an adapter).
