Web search API and crawler built for AI agents
Run natural-language or keyword queries against a large independent web index with filters for domain, date and category.
Return cleaned page text and AI-extracted highlights so agents receive the most relevant excerpts instead of entire pages.
Choose fast, balanced or deep search modes so an assistant can answer instantly or run longer grounded research.
Extract structured outputs such as company details, people and other entities for list building and data pipelines.
Institution-grade crypto and equities intelligence, delivered through a chat-style AI analyst.
Ask questions about tokens, protocols, or equities in plain language and receive answers backed by visible sources rather than unsupported assertions.
Market prices, onchain events, SEC filings, and news are normalized into one structured layer so the model reasons over consistent inputs.
API, MCP server, CLI, and agent skills let teams wire Surf intelligence into their own agents, dashboards, and internal research workflows.
Purpose-built modules for tracking market-moving developments and for looking up structured context on projects and assets.
