Endpoint
GEThttps://bob.assimilatethis.com/research?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a synthesized, direct answer to a factual or market-research question backed by live web sources, rather than a raw list of search results or a full page summary. It is ideal when the user wants a concise, ready-to-use answer rather than raw snippets, and when freshness matters (e.g. current prices, recent events, live market data). For plain ranked search results without synthesis, prefer the sibling search endpoint. For verifying a specific claim, prefer the fact-check endpoint.
Side effects
- Timeout: if the web search and extraction cannot complete within the time limit, an error is returned and no charge is applied
- No relevant page found: if Firecrawl cannot extract sufficient content from the best candidate page, the answer may be incomplete or empty
- Ambiguous question: vague or poorly scoped queries may yield low-quality or off-topic answers
- Rate limiting or upstream provider failure: Tavily, Exa, or Firecrawl may be temporarily unavailable, returning an upstream error
