FAQ

Questions Exa AI owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I find my Exa AI API Key?

    Log in to your Exa AI dashboard, and copy your unique API Key from the settings section.

  • 02

    What makes semantic search different?

    Traditional search uses keywords. Semantic search uses neural embeddings to understand the meaning and context of your query, finding better matches.

  • 03

    Can I extract text from multiple URLs at once?

    Yes! The extract_page_content capability accepts a JSON array of URLs and retrieves the parsed content for all of them programmatically.
