# Tavily

Tavily is a search API designed for LLMs, enabling AI applications to access real-time web data.

## Installation

**Python:**
```bash
pip install tavily-python
```

**JavaScript:**
```bash
npm install @tavily/core
```

See **[references/sdk.md](references/sdk.md)** for complete SDK reference.

## Client Initialization

```python
from tavily import TavilyClient

# Uses TAVILY_API_KEY env var (recommended)
client = TavilyClient()

#With project tracking (for usage organization)
client = TavilyClient(project_id="your-project-id")

# Async client for parallel queries
from tavily import AsyncTavilyClient
async_client = AsyncTavilyClient()
```

## Choosing the Right Method

**For custom agents/workflows:**

| Need | Method |
|------|--------|
| Web search results | `search()` |
| Content from specific URLs | `extract()` |
| Content from entire site | `crawl()` |
| URL discovery from site | `map()` |

**For out-of-the-box research:**

| Need | Method |
|------|--------|
| End-to-end research with AI synthesis | `research()` |

## Quick Reference

### search() - Web Search

```python
response = client.search(
    query="quantum computing breakthroughs",  # Keep under 400 chars
    max_results=10,
    search_depth="advanced"
)
print(response)
```
Key parameters: `query`, `max_results`, `search_depth` (ultra-fast/fast/basic/advanced), `include_domains`, `exclude_domains`, `time_range`

See **[references/search.md](references/search.md)** for complete search reference.

### extract() - URL Content Extraction

```python
# Simple one-step extraction
response = client.extract(
    urls=["https://docs.example.com"],
    extract_depth="advanced"
)
print(response)
```
Key parameters: `urls` (max 20), `extract_depth`, `query`, `chunks_per_source` (1-5)

See **[references/extract.md](references/extract.md)** for complete extract reference.

### crawl() - Site-Wide Extraction

```python
response = client.crawl(
    url="https://docs.example.com",
    instructions="Find API documentation pages",  # Semantic focus
    extract_depth="advanced"
)
print(response)
```
Key parameters: `url`, `max_depth`, `max_breadth`, `limit`, `instructions`, `chunks_per_source`, `select_paths`, `exclude_paths`

See **[references/crawl.md](references/crawl.md)** for complete crawl reference.

### map() - URL Discovery

```python
response = client.map(
    url="https://docs.example.com"
)
print(response)
```

### research() - AI-Powered Research

```python
import time

# For comprehensive multi-topic research
result = client.research(
    input="Analyze competitive landscape for X in SMB market",
    model="pro"  # or "mini" for focused queries, "auto" when unsure
)
request_id = result["request_id"]

# Poll until completed
response = client.get_research(request_id)
while response["status"] not in ["completed", "failed"]:
    time.sleep(10)
    response = client.get_research(request_id)

print(response["content"])  # The research report
```

Key parameters: `input`, `model` ("mini"/"pro"/"auto"), `stream`, `output_schema`, `citation_format`

See **[references/research.md](references/research.md)** for complete research reference.

## Detailed Guides

For complete parameters, response fields, patterns, and examples:

- **[references/sdk.md](references/sdk.md)** - Python & JavaScript SDK reference, async patterns, Hybrid RAG
- **[references/search.md](references/search.md)** - Query optimization, search depth selection, domain filtering, async patterns, post-filtering
- **[references/extract.md](references/extract.md)** - One-step vs two-step extraction, query/chunks for targeting, advanced mode
- **[references/crawl.md](references/crawl.md)** - Crawl vs Map, instructions for semantic focus, use cases, Map-then-Extract pattern
- **[references/research.md](references/research.md)** - Prompting best practices, model selection, streaming, structured output schemas
- **[references/integrations.md](references/integrations.md)** - LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, Vercel AI SDK, and framework integrations
