High-volume programmatic queries — per-query pricing adds up fast
A search engine funded by subscriptions rather than ads, with an API for programmatic access. The product is opinionated about ranking quality and gives you controls (domain filters, lenses) that general engines hide. The API is not cheap per query, which makes it a research tool rather than a bulk retrieval layer.
