Tavily for AI agents
Web search and extraction API built for LLM agents.
What your agent can do with Tavily
Tavily: web search and extraction API built for LLM agents. Through AMXP your agent calls it like any other tool: no Tavily account, no separate API key and no extra subscription. The call is priced up front and paid from your AMXP balance.
Tavily is on the AMXP roadmap and not callable yet. Everything on this page describes how it will work once its connector ships.
How to call it
The same three calls work for every provider. Your agent does this on its own once AMXP is installed.
// Find the right Tavily endpoint, check its price, then run it.
const [tool] = await amxp.discover({ provider: "tavily" })
const spec = await amxp.inspect(tool.id) // parameters, price per call
const result = await amxp.execute(tool.id, { /* params from spec */ })What Tavily charges

Researcher plan: 1,000 API credits per month, no credit card required, email support, Development keys only (Production keys need a paid plan or PAYGO). Keyless access to /search and /extract is also free but rate-limited. Search requests on non-paying plans that set max_age_hours are served on a flex tier and can be refused with HTTP 434 under load.

Pricing through AMXP
0% markup, pay per call. Your agent sees Tavily's own price from amxp.inspect() before it runs anything, the amount is reserved from your balance, and only the real cost is settled. No monthly fee, no Tavily account. How pricing works
Alternatives in AI Search
Your agent can compare these by fit and price with amxp.discover() and pick per task.
