Search
by Bob Research Tools in Search & web
Plain web search. Returns ranked results (title, URL and a short snippet) for a query, up to 10, optionally limited to a publish-date range with since and until (YYYY-MM-DD). No AI-written answer, so it is fast: typically under a second. If it cannot return results you get an error and are not charged.
