Free web search API for LLM agents, RAG pipelines and AI chatbots
Issue search queries and receive titles, source links and snippets with no per-request charges on the free plan.
Request full page content instead of snippets and cap it per result with a max_characters setting.
Call the same search engine from an HTTP API, an MCP endpoint for agents, or a skill for coding assistants.
Restrict results with includeDomains and excludeDomains, plus freshness presets, single dates or inclusive date ranges.
The managed vector database and knowledge engine for production AI
Store and query vector embeddings with automatic indexing that requires no manual tuning or algorithm selection.
Writes are acknowledged in under 100ms and become searchable within seconds, while all data is searched in parallel so speed holds at scale.
Connect agents to Pinecone through plugins for Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Codex, Gemini CLI, MCP, or a direct REST API with one key.
Serve compiled, governed enterprise knowledge to agents through a single query, cutting token usage and latency versus multi-step RAG loops.
