We will soon migrate to a dedicated API console where you’ll be able to manage your groups’ API keys, billing, and usage all from one place.This new console will provide:
  • Centralized API key management: Organize and manage all your groups’ API keys in one unified interface
  • Integrated billing: View and manage billing information alongside your API usage
  • Usage analytics: Track usage patterns and monitor API consumption across your organization
  • Streamlined workflow: Access everything you need to manage your API operations without switching between different tools
We’re rolling out a performance upgrade to the Sonar API that delivers significantly faster response times:
  • Same Endpoint: The upgraded endpoint maintains full compatibility with the existing API contract
  • Reduced Latency: Approximately 40% lower latency compared to the current version
  • Automatic Upgrade: Your traffic will automatically benefit from the improved performance - this change is seamless and no action needs to be taken
This upgrade will provide faster response times while maintaining full backward compatibility with your existing integrations.
We’re introducing an Embeddings API to enable semantic search and retrieval capabilities:
  • Text Embeddings: Generate high-quality vector embeddings from text input
  • Semantic Search: Build applications that can find and retrieve information based on meaning and context
  • RAG Applications: Power retrieval-augmented generation workflows with custom knowledge bases
This API will enable you to build sophisticated search and retrieval applications that understand semantic relationships between content.
We’re expanding our multimodal capabilities to include video uploads.This feature will enable:
  • Video Content Analysis: Upload and analyze video files directly through the API
  • Frame-by-Frame Processing: Extract insights from video content at multiple time points
  • Visual Scene Understanding: Analyze visual elements, objects, and activities in video content
  • Multimodal Search: Search for information based on both visual and audio elements from your uploaded videos
Supported formats will include common video file types (MP4, MOV, AVI) with reasonable file size limits for API efficiency.This capability will unlock new use cases in content moderation, educational analysis, media research, and automated video summarization.
Expanding your ability to access and process information:
  • File Repository Integration: Query file repositories tied to your API organization
  • Multi-format File Search: Search across various file types (PDFs, documents, spreadsheets)
  • External Data Source Integration: Connect to external data stores and databases
  • Enterprise Connector Parity: Full feature parity with enterprise connector capabilities
This feature will allow your applications to tap into a broader range of data sources for more comprehensive insights, enabling you to build applications that can search and analyze your organization’s entire knowledge base.
We’re expanding our structured outputs capabilities:
  • Universal JSON Support: JSON structured outputs are now available for all models across all tiers
  • Advanced Schema Validation: Enhanced validation options for more reliable structured data
  • Output Templates: Pre-defined templates for common use cases
This expansion will make it easier to build applications that require consistent, structured data from our API responses.
We’re committed to making our documentation a truly exceptional resource:
  • Improved Layout: Optimized structure for better self-serve workflows
  • Consistent Design: Unified branding between our landing page and documentation
  • Enhanced Content: Revised explanations for better developer understanding
  • Vertical-Specific Guides: Specialized documentation for publishers, merchants, and other industry partners
  • High-Fidelity Demos: More comprehensive examples beyond our basic cookbook demos
  • Comprehensive Prompt Guide: In-depth resources to help you build effectively with our search + LLM API
  • API Selection Guides: Clear guidance on which API is best suited for specific scenarios
These improvements will help you get up to speed faster and make the most of our API capabilities.
We’re scaling our infrastructure to support significantly higher request volumes:
  • Enterprise-Scale Rate Limits: Supporting use cases up to 100K requests per minute
  • High-Growth Startup Support: Designed specifically for rapidly scaling applications
  • Infrastructure Reliability: Enhanced stability and reduced latency spikes under high load
  • Regional Scaling: Expanded infrastructure deployment for global applications
This enhancement will ensure our API can grow alongside your application’s user base and processing needs, supporting everything from high-growth startups to enterprise-scale deployments.
Improving our error framework:
  • More descriptive error messages
  • Clearer guidance on resolving common issues
This will reduce debugging time and help you understand and address issues more efficiently.
Broadening the types of content you can work with:
  • URL Content Integration: Specify URLs within prompts to search for and analyze content from specific web pages directly
  • Advanced URL Parsing: Extract and analyze content from web pages with enhanced accuracy and context understanding
  • Web Page Analysis: Deep content extraction including text, images, and structured data from URLs
  • Real-time Web Content: Access to live web content for dynamic analysis and research
These features will enable new use cases and richer interactions within your applications, allowing you to reference specific web content and build more comprehensive research workflows with real-time web data integration.
We’re addressing the limitations of managing context in API calls by introducing new context management features.Key improvements include:
  • Efficient Context Storage: Avoid appending responses from previous API calls to new ones, reducing the risk of exceeding context windows.
  • Session-Based Memory: Enable session-based memory to maintain context across multiple API calls without manual intervention.
These enhancements will make it easier to build applications that require persistent context without hitting technical limitations.
We’re preparing to make Pro Search available to all API users:
  • Multi-step Reasoning: Access to the advanced Agent API capabilities currently in beta
  • Dynamic Tool Execution: Automated web searches, URL content fetching, and Python code execution
  • Intelligent Classification: Automatic determination of when to use pro search vs fast search based on query complexity
  • Transparent Reasoning: Real-time streaming of the model’s thought process and tool usage
This will unlock sophisticated research workflows and enable your applications to handle complex, multi-dimensional queries that require computational analysis and deep web research.
Introducing voice-based interactions through our API:
  • Real-time Voice Processing: Direct voice input and audio response generation
  • Natural Conversation Flow: Maintain context across voice interactions
  • Multi-language Support: Voice capabilities across multiple languages
  • Low-latency Streaming: Optimized for real-time voice applications
This capability will enable voice assistants, interactive applications, and hands-free interfaces that can search and reason about information through natural speech.
Expanding our capabilities with specialized financial tools:
  • Market Data Access: Real-time and historical stock prices, market indicators
  • Ticker Symbol Lookup: Intelligent company and symbol resolution
  • Financial Analysis Tools: Price history, trend analysis, and market insights
