The search API built for AI agents. One API that gives your AI unified access to web search, academic papers, financial data, SEC filings, clinical trials, patents, and 36+ proprietary data sources. ## Products | Product | Endpoint | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | Search | `POST /v1/search` | Multi-source search across web and proprietary datasets | | Contents | `POST /v1/contents` | Extract clean, structured content from URLs | | Answer | `POST /v1/answer` | AI-powered answers with real-time search | | DeepResearch | `POST /v1/deepresearch/tasks` | Async research agents for comprehensive analysis | | Datasources | `GET /v1/datasources` | Discover available data sources and their schemas | ## Authentication All endpoints require an API key passed via the `X-API-Key` header. Get your key at [platform.valyu.ai](https://platform.valyu.ai). ``` X-API-Key: your_api_key_here ``` ## Pricing Valyu uses transparent, pay-per-use pricing: - Search: CPM-based (cost per mille tokens retrieved) - Contents: $0.001 per URL extracted, +$0.001 with AI features - Answer: $0.10 per request + variable search and AI costs - DeepResearch: Fixed per-task pricing by mode ($0.10 - $15.00) See [docs.valyu.ai](https://docs.valyu.ai) for full pricing details. ## SDKs - [Python SDK](https://pypi.org/project/valyu/) - `pip install valyu` - [TypeScript SDK](https://www.npmjs.com/package/valyu) - `npm install valyu`
This provider-level handoff preserves only its public ID. No tool or business task is guessed; choose a current tool during rediscovery before setup can be treated as complete.
Retrieve all available datasource categories. Use these to filter the datasources endpoint. Categories include: `research`, `healthcare`, `markets`, `company`, `economic`, `predictions`, `transportation`, `legal`, `politics`, `patents`.
Discover all data sources available through Valyu's search API. Each datasource includes metadata, example queries (optimized for few-shot prompting), pricing information, and response schemas. Use this endpoint to build dynamic tool manifests for AI agents instead of hardcoding knowledge of available datasets.
Retrieve all batches for the authenticated API key.
Retrieve a list of all DeepResearch tasks for the authenticated API key.
