FAQPage Schema
How do I conduct deep research across web pages and code repositories?

Deep research across web and code repositories is performed using a neural search engine to retrieve relevant web content, code examples, and company information quickly. It leverages Exa MCP server for data retrieval.

What is neural search and how does it work for finding web content?

Neural search for web content accesses information through a neural engine rather than keyword matching, retrieving contextually relevant data. It requires an Exa MCP server and a valid API key to function.

Can I use Exa MCP server to research company information and competitors?

Yes, company research is supported directly through the Exa MCP server. You can gather intel on companies, competitors, market players, and look up professional profiles or domain experts.

Do I need an API key to search for code examples and documentation?

Yes, an API key is required to search for code examples and documentation. A properly configured Exa MCP server and a valid EXA_API_KEY are mandatory dependencies for the search engine to operate.

What's the best way to find the latest market trends using neural search?

Finding the latest market trends is best achieved by querying the neural search engine with specific phrases. Typing a prompt like 'search for latest AI developments 2026' retrieves current news and data quickly.

Why does web search fail when the Exa MCP server is not configured?

Web search fails without a configured Exa MCP server because the neural search engine relies on it as a core dependency. Operation requires both the server installation and a valid EXA_API_KEY to process queries.
