🌐 Building an AI agent that needs web intelligence? @youdotcom brings semantic web search and real-time retrieval directly into your Haystack agents! Add YoucomWebSearch to your agent (or your pipeline), configure your You.com API credentials, and your agent can search the live web mid-run, pulling in content, snippets, and metadata that provide enough ground for downstream tasks. Think of an agent that researches a topic in real time instead of working off its index. 🐍 pip install youcom-haystack 🔗 haystack.deepset.ai/integrat…

Web search is now part of how open-weight models get trained. Partnering with with @NVIDIAAI and @CoreWeave, we've built a training stack that brings live web search into reinforcement learning, starting with @nvidia Nemotron 3.5 Lightning. More to come as we open this up.

Introducing Knowledge: the first web search API that returns licensed real-time data alongside web results. Prices, rates, odds, weather, scores, company and government info. The data that lives behind licensed feeds and databases instead of on crawlable pages. Now available through @youdotcom Web Search at ZERO additional cost.

Introducing Factory Private, a new deployment option that lets organizations run Factory in their own VPCs, on-premises environments, or air-gapped networks.

We're partnering with @baseten to make the case for open-weight models. Paired with @youdotcom web search, they're a real alternative to closed models at a fraction of the price. Already calling Baseten's Chat Completions endpoint? Add one line to your tools array: tools=[{"type": "baseten__you__search"}] Same model, same request. No search vendor to wire up, no retry path, no resending a growing context every turn.

@youdotcom now runs inside @claudeai. Connector in Claude Desktop. Plugin in Claude Code. Ground your Claude chats in what happened today: real-time web search, page content, and cited research, right inside Claude. Setup takes under a minute 🧵

New: Web Search with Highlights. 95.17% on SimpleQA. Same $5 CPM. Independently verified by @braintrust: 35% cheaper than Claude's built-in search, 11% cheaper than OpenAI's.

Imagine doing your job without ever looking anything up on the internet. That's an agent without web search. Giving agents the web changed what they can do, especially on anything recent that isn't reflected in training data. But agents don't search like people, so optimizing their performance is a new challenge. There's a lot of great research out there on search behavior, but we wanted to answer a more operational question: when should search be on, and how should you configure it? We evaluated 1,329 current events questions across 4 models and 14 conditions, comparing @youdotcom, provider built-in search, and no search. We found that: - Search reduced the gap between models from 47.9 points to 5.6 - Retrieval gain declined with event age, from ~45 points for recent events to ~24 for the oldest - Runs with 5+ searches scored 19–49%. A fifth query was associated with lower performance Read the research → braintrustdata.link/web-sear…

No web search API returns more accurate results faster than @youdotcom Web Search with Highlights. Artificial Analysis benchmarked 14 search APIs across three evals. We score 74 on their Search Index in 18 seconds per task. No other provider beats this accuracy without doubling your user’s wait. hubs.ly/Q04vddqs0 @ArtificialAnlys @mrdbourke

We measured what a self-improving agent skill actually does. Three cycles: mean F1 0.38 to 0.49 (+29% relative) on held-out DeepSearchQA questions, same tool budget. Here's how Hermes Agent led us there:
