tavily search

Web search returning LLM-optimized results with content snippets and relevance scores.

  • You need to find information on any topic

  • You don't have a specific URL yet

  • First step in the workflow: search โ†’ extract โ†’ map โ†’ crawl โ†’ research

Tips

  • Keep queries under 400 characters โ€” think search query, not prompt.

  • Break complex queries into sub-queries for better results.

  • Use --include-raw-content when you need full page text (saves a separate extract call).

  • Use --include-domains to focus on trusted sources.

  • Use --time-range for recent information.

  • Read from stdin: echo "query" | tvly search - --json
