Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://archtools.dev/v1/tools/web-searchWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need live, up-to-date web search results from the open internet, especially within an agent workflow that already uses the Arch Tools ecosystem (which includes complementary tools like extract-page, extract-entities, and sentiment-analysis). It is well-suited for retrieving current news, fact-checking, or gathering source URLs for further processing. Prefer it over static knowledge bases when recency of information matters.
Side effects

- Limit parameter set to 0 or invalid integer may cause a request error
- Query for very niche or obscure topics may return few or no results
- Service may return a 402 Payment Required if USDC payment is not attached or insufficient
