What it does

OrioSearch is a self-hosted, Tavily-compatible web search & extraction API. Every AI agent needs web search ! - Drop-in: Matches Tavily's endpoints exactly. - BYO-LLM: Plug in Ollama or OpenAI for AI answers with citations. - Reach: 70+ search engines via SearXNG with DuckDuckGo fallback. - Web + Image search: image results alongside web results via parallel search - Ready: Multi-tier extraction, reranking, SSE streaming & Redis caching.

Self-hosted, Tavily-compatible web search and content extraction API. Deploy in 30 seconds with Docker.

OrioSearch is an open-source web search and content extraction API you actually own. Tavily-compatible. Deploy with Docker in 30 seconds. Zero API bills, ever. Tavily charges per search. Scale your agents and watch costs explode. OrioSearch costs nothing per query. Every search query you send goes through someone else's infrastructure. Self-host and keep your data where it belongs. Hit a rate limit mid-task and your AI agent grinds to a halt. Your server, your rules, no limits. OrioSearch is a drop-in Tavily replacement. Same API shape, same response format. Just swap the URL. # Tavily — $100+/month base_url = "https://api.tavily.com" api_key = "tvly-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" After # OrioSearch —…from oriosearch.org

We are focused on low cost and latency (p95 <250ms from us-east). We don’t believe in benchmaxxing, so we open-sourced our internal benchmarking suite, NEEDLE (available at https:&#x2F;&#x2F;keenableai.github.io&#x2F;needle): a live benchmark that compares Keenable with other search APIs on fresh agent-like queries.
