Introducing Knowledge: The first web search API that returns licensed real-time data alongside web results.

Licensed real-time data, now available in the You.com web search API.

Prices, rates, odds, weather, scores, government spending. The data that lives behind licensed feeds and structured databases, instead of on crawlable pages.

Here's the question that convinced us to build it. How much did NASA pay out in federal contract outlays in FY2025? Every major web search API we tested, ours included, returned something different, from $19.8 billion to $28.8 billion. The answer is $20,002,053,117.

Nothing was hallucinated. Every one of those is a real NASA figure from a real page. Some are a different line item entirely, and the closest is off by two hundred million dollars. A page carrying a dozen spending figures leaves the model to work out which one you asked for.

So Knowledge reads the record instead. Licensed feeds are queried in parallel with the web index, and every figure comes back with its field name, its source, and an as_of timestamp. Across 155 questions like the NASA one, our accuracy goes from 64.5% to 84.2%, adding only 140ms of latency

One parameter. Same endpoint. Same $5 CPM.
