Performs a web search for each record using Exa and stores the results as a new field. Use it to find company websites, news articles, LinkedIn profiles, or any public information.

How It Works

1

Write a search query

Compose the query using Mentions to make it dynamic per record (e.g., {{Company Name}} official website).
2

Choose search type

Select Auto for best quality, Keyword for exact term matching, or Neural for semantic search.
3

Configure filters and output

Optionally filter by domain or date, choose how many results to return, and name the output field.

​
Output

A new field containing the search results is added to each record. The field becomes available as a Mention in all downstream nodes.

​
Best Practices

  • Use Mentions to make queries dynamic per record
  • Set domain filters to focus results (e.g., only linkedin.com for profile lookups)
  • Start with a small number of results per query and increase if needed
  • Use Neural search for conceptual queries, Keyword for exact terms
  • AI Enrichment — enrich records using LLM-generated content instead of web data
  • HTTP Request — call a specific API endpoint rather than performing a web search
