# Exa

> Exa AI web search - neural and keyword search, find similar, contents, answers, and deep research.

Lets an agent search the web with Exa's embeddings-based ("neural") search,
find pages similar to a URL, fetch clean parsed page contents, get cited LLM
answers, and run asynchronous deep-research tasks.
