What their customers say
Quotes from people at Exa's customers.
“When we saw companies show up in Exa that we hadn't found anywhere else, we knew it was our best option. It delivers, for a few dollars, what we'd been spending hundreds of thousands to assemble.”
“StackAI and Exa are the dream team…Exa is amazing at web search! We're proud to use Exa on our platform and to show our customers how web search can power AI agent workflows.”
“In our internal benchmarks, Exa delivered accurate source data roughly 30% more often than any other tool we tried, especially on fresh articles. Its deep sub-page crawl also keeps our production agents from hallucinating.”
“We use Exa for essentially all parts of our research—gathering sources, documenting, creating notes, and building briefs.”
“Exa's strong coverage and flexible API have been a key differentiator for us. Scientists trust our product further when the relevant papers they expect to see are available to them in the right workflows.”

“We evaluated five different search providers, but none came close to Exa's quality and breadth of data.”
“Standard signals like funding, job changes, and hiring are commoditized. Exa is how we find leads surfacing the triggers that actually predict a good prospect, then go deep on research before our agent engages.”
“OpenRouter has a laser focus on bringing a great developer experience to all language models, and Exa is the best way we've found for grounding AI in the real world in a model-agnostic way.”
“Exa consistently shows higher quality than other AI search providers we tested. What Exa is able to do in 1 search took our old provider multiple searches, taking 5 times as long.”
“Traditional search engine solutions weren't enough for us. Exa powers all parts of Devin.”
“Exa is necessary for agents on HubSpot to supplement internal data with high quality, real-time people and company search. We found that other alternatives were slower, more expensive, and did not have comprehensive enrichment coverage.”
“We're entering a new era where software actually does the work. For that to be real, the agents need live intelligence behind them. Exa is where that comes from: current company and people data sourced from the web in real time.”
“We aim to deliver users a model, where AI makes your browser empowering and helpful, with visible citations and a zero-data-retention commitment. We can show results and how we're recommending things, which helps drive us closer to our goal of transparency and trust.”
