Search results that actually answer your query
Snippex is a search API that returns the exact relevant passages from inside each page — not the surface-level excerpts other APIs give you. Build smarter AI pipelines, research tools, and knowledge systems without scraping.

}What makes Snippex different
Deep snippets, not surface excerpts
Other search APIs return the short blurb shown in Google results. Snippex digs into the actual page and extracts the passages that directly answer your query.
Proprietary extraction engine
Our extraction algorithm identifies and pulls the most relevant passages from each page with high precision — grounded entirely in source content, not summaries.
Simple REST API
One endpoint. JSON in, JSON out. Control depth, freshness, domains, and snippet count with straightforward parameters.
How it works
Send a query
POST your query with optional filters — search depth, recency, language, domain allow/block lists.
We fetch and extract
Snippex crawls the web, retrieves full page content, and runs it through our proprietary extraction engine to surface the passages most relevant to your query.
Get ranked snippets
Receive structured JSON with ranked results, each containing verbatim relevant passages scored by relevance — ready to use, no post-processing needed.
