About Exa
Exa is pushing past search into autonomous web-research agents.
Exa has moved beyond its search-and-retrieval API into agentic territory. The headline change is Exa Agent — a research agent built on Exa's index and reachable via API — now joined by MCP availability for Agent and Connect. The underlying search product keeps maturing in parallel: auto-routing, people and company search, markdown-native content, and instant results.
