Build applications and agents with Exa's API: search, contents extraction, answer, context, Agent API, monitors, websets, OpenAI-compatible endpoints, and exa-py/exa-js SDKs. Use when choosing Exa endpoints, writing Exa API calls, integrating semantic web search or research into products, or debugging Exa request shapes.
Call Exa Contents directly with cURL or raw HTTP. Use when an agent already has URLs and needs POST /contents without an SDK for extracted text, highlights, summaries, links, image links, subpages, freshness-controlled crawling, or per-URL status handling.
Company research using Exa. Finds company info, competitors, news, financials, LinkedIn profiles, builds company lists. Use when researching companies, doing competitor analysis, market research, or building company lists.
Generate enriched lead lists using Exa Agent. Finds companies matching an ICP, enriches with signals/news/scores, and outputs CSV. Use when generating leads, building prospect lists, finding companies to sell to, doing outbound research, or ICP-based company discovery. Triggers on "leads", "lead gen", "prospect list", "find companies", "ICP", "outbound list".
Call Exa Search directly with cURL or raw HTTP. Use when an agent needs Exa semantic web retrieval from POST /search without an SDK, including ranked results, domain or category filters, freshness-aware result content, highlights or text extraction, structured output, or streaming search responses.
