Overview

Exa Answer generates a search-grounded answer from a research question and returns citations. Use it when you need one concise answer or structured research snippet backed by web sources, not a full ranked result list or a long-form report.

Use cases

  • Ask how buyers describe a category and review the cited sources.
  • Get a quick answer to a competitive or market-research question.
  • Request a structured list of claims, sources, or themes for a brief.

Input tips

  • Write a specific research question with the audience, market, or timeframe you care about.
  • Turn on source text when you need more context from cited pages.
  • Provide an output schema only when you need a structured answer.
  • Use Exa Search instead when you need a ranked list of source results.

Expected output

The AI Tool returns a text or structured answer, the final query used, and citation results with source URLs, titles, snippets, highlights, or source text when requested.

Caveats

  • Review cited sources before using claims in public copy.
  • It produces one answer, not a full research audit.
  • Search results and source availability can change over time.
  • Structured output schemas must stay valid and reasonably small.
