Tavily to Scavio Migration Stack

The Problem

Tavily was acquired by Nebius for $275M in February 2026. Existing customers continue per the announcement, but new builds and re-architecting projects are evaluating vendor-independent alternatives.

The Scavio Solution

Drop-in: replace TavilySearch tool with langchain-scavio's ScavioSearchTool, swap API key, keep prompts. /extract endpoint pattern is the same. Multi-platform endpoints (Reddit, YouTube, Amazon, Walmart) are bonus surface Tavily doesn't offer. Migration typically <30 minutes for a small project.

Who It Is For

LangChain teams currently on Tavily who want to reduce post-acquisition vendor dependency, founders setting up new builds in mid-2026.

Key Benefits

• Same shape (LangChain-native + MCP)
• Vendor-independent default
• Multi-platform bonus surface
• Drop-in TavilySearch → ScavioSearchTool
• <30 min for small projects

Python Example

# pip install langchain-scavio
from langchain_scavio import ScavioSearchTool
import os

tool = ScavioSearchTool(api_key=os.environ['SCAVIO_API_KEY'])
result = tool.run('latest LLM benchmarks 2026')
# replaces TavilySearchResults usage with same call shape

JavaScript Example

// import { ScavioSearchTool } from 'langchain-scavio'; const t = new ScavioSearchTool({ apiKey: process.env.SCAVIO_API_KEY });
