Run a single query across Google plus the major AI search platforms (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Grok, Bing) and get structured per-platform results in one call. Includes brand and domain extraction.

The Search Intelligence agent API lets you run a single search query in parallel across Google and the major AI platforms, then get back a structured response with per-platform results, citations, and (optionally) brand/domain extraction. Use it to power external dashboards, citation monitors, and AI-search visibility reports.

Endpoints at a glance

Method & Path	Scope	Purpose
POST /api/agent/v1/search-intelligence/query	search_intelligence:query	Run a query across the requested platforms. Synchronous — returns once all platforms settle or the 90s budget expires.
GET /api/agent/v1/search-intelligence/query/:runId	search_intelligence:query	Fetch a previously-run query by runId. Useful when the original POST timed out at the wall-clock budget but partial state is in the DB.

Authentication and scope

Both endpoints use the standard agent API auth: Authorization: Bearer rk_live_.... Add the search_intelligence:query scope to your API key under Settings > API keys (the scope name in the picker is exactly search_intelligence:query).

Supported platforms

The platforms field accepts any subset of the following (max 7):

• google_organic — Google organic SERP results (parsed)

• chatgpt — ChatGPT response with citations

• perplexity — Perplexity answer with sources

• gemini — Google Gemini response

• claude — Anthropic Claude response

• grok — xAI Grok response

• bing — Bing organic SERP results

If platforms is omitted, the default set is ["google_organic", "chatgpt", "perplexity", "gemini"].

Run a query

POST /api/agent/v1/search-intelligence/query
Authorization: Bearer rk_live_YOUR_KEY
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "query": "best crm for small business",
  "platforms": ["google_organic", "chatgpt", "perplexity", "gemini"],
  "location": "United States",
  "gl": "us",
  "language": "en",
  "hl": "en",
  "device": "desktop",
  "includeRaw": false,
  "extract": {
    "brands": ["HubSpot", "Salesforce", "Pipedrive"],
    "domains": ["hubspot.com", "salesforce.com", "pipedrive.com"]
  }
}

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
query	string	Yes	—	The search query. 1–250 characters.
platforms	array	No	see above	Up to 7 platform identifiers. Duplicates rejected.
location	string	No	"United States"	Display name of the search location (max 255 chars).
gl	string	No	"us"	Two-letter country code for SERP context.
language	string	No	"en"	Language code (e.g. en, es, de).
hl	string	No	"en"	UI language hint passed to providers that accept it.
device	enum	No	"desktop"	"desktop" or "mobile".
includeRaw	boolean	No	false	If true, the response includes the raw upstream payload per platform (larger payload).
extract.brands	array	No	—	Up to 20 brand names to detect mentions of in each platform's response.
extract.domains	array	No	—	Up to 20 domains to detect citations of in each platform's response.

Response (200 OK)

The response includes the runId, the query parameters, the requested platforms, and a per-platform result array. Each platform entry contains its raw answer (when includeRaw: true), parsed citations, and — when extract was provided — brand-mention and domain-citation flags.

Limits and timing

• Per-platform timeout: 45 seconds.

• Total endpoint budget: 90 seconds. If the orchestrator overruns, the POST returns 504 timeout. The 504 envelope does not include a runId, so retry the POST rather than trying to hydrate a partial run.

• Concurrency: Up to 4 platforms run in parallel internally.

• Brand / domain extraction: Up to 20 entries each.

Partial-failure behaviour

If some platforms succeed and others fail, the response is still 200 OK. Failed platforms appear in failedPlatforms with an error code, and successful platforms appear in results with status: "success".

If all requested platforms fail, the endpoint returns 502 with a top-level runId so you can still hydrate the partial DB state. The body shape is:

{
  "runId": "0a1b2c3d-...",
  "error": { "code": "all_platforms_failed", "message": "All requested platforms failed" },
  "response": { ...same shape as the success response... }
}

Hydrate a previous run

GET /api/agent/v1/search-intelligence/query/{runId}?includeRaw=true
Authorization: Bearer rk_live_YOUR_KEY

The includeRaw query parameter is optional and defaults to false. The response is the same shape as the POST response.

Error codes

HTTP	Code	When
400	invalid_input	Missing or oversized query, unknown platform identifier, duplicate platforms, brands/domains array over 20.
401	unauthorized	Missing or invalid Authorization header.
403	forbidden	API key is missing the search_intelligence:query scope.
404	not_found	runId not found in your org.
429	rate_limited	Per-minute rate limit exceeded.
502	all_platforms_failed	All requested platforms failed. runId is still returned at the top level.
504	timeout	Wall-clock budget (90s) exceeded. The 504 envelope does not return a runId — retry the POST rather than hydrating.

Common gotcha

The endpoint is POST .../search-intelligence/query — not GET .../search-intelligence. A GET on the bare path returns the unknown-route fallthrough; make sure you're posting JSON to the /query sub-path.
