The Problem
Open-source AI projects cannot afford enterprise search contracts and free tiers have vanished. Google CSE closed signups, Brave ended free access, and scraping fails on Cloudflare-protected sites. Without web access, open-source AI tools stagnate.
How Scavio Helps
- Free 250 credits/month lets open-source projects prototype without cost
- On-demand pricing at $0.005/credit scales with project growth
- Multi-platform access: Google, YouTube, Reddit in one API key
- MCP server support for projects adopting Model Context Protocol
- No minimum commitment or enterprise contract required

Quick Start: Python Example
Here is a quick example searching Google for "open source ai agent web search integration 2026":
import requests
API_KEY = "your_scavio_api_key"
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
headers={
"x-api-key": API_KEY,
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
json={"query": query},
)
data = response.json()
for result in data.get("organic_results", [])[:5]:
print(f"{result['position']}. {result['title']}")
print(f" {result['link']}\n")Built for Open-source AI maintainers, community developers, and contributors building tools that need web data
Scavio handles the search infrastructure — proxies, CAPTCHAs, rate limits, and anti-bot detection — so you can focus on building your open source ai web access 2026 solution. The API returns structured JSON that is ready for processing, analysis, or feeding into AI agents.
Start with the free tier (50 credits on signup, no credit card required) and scale to paid plans when you need higher volume.
