Linkup
AI agents sometimes need information beyond their training data. Linkup gives your agent the ability to search the live web, retrieve sourced answers, and deliver verified, up-to-date facts during customer conversations. No hallucinations, just real answers from real sources.
Your AI agent gains access to the entire web through Linkup's search API. Factual answers, sourced results, and deep research happen inside the conversation flow.

See how businesses use Linkup-powered AI agents to answer questions that require live web data, turning every conversation into a research-backed experience.
A customer asks about a regulation that was updated last month. Your AI Agent's training data does not cover the change, so it queries Linkup for the latest information. Linkup returns a sourced answer with the official government website as attribution. The customer gets accurate, current information. Your brand avoids the embarrassment of outdated answers.
A prospect asks how your product compares to a competitor that launched a new feature yesterday. Your AI Agent runs a deep Linkup search for the competitor's latest announcements, retrieves feature details with source URLs, and helps the prospect understand the differences. Sales objections get handled with real-time market intelligence.
A customer cites a blog post claiming your product lacks a specific feature. Your AI Agent searches Linkup for the article, reads the context, cross-references with your actual feature set, and provides a factual correction with supporting links. Misinformation gets addressed with evidence, not assumptions.
