BraveSearch API provides programmatic access to an independent, privacy-centric index of 30 billion pages for AI grounding and web search.

The BraveSearch API serves as a high-performance alternative to Google and Bing, delivering results from a completely autonomous web index. Built to handle 50 million daily queries with sub-second latency, it offers specialized endpoints like LLM Context for token-efficient RAG pipelines and Goggles for custom result re-ranking. Developers can integrate web, news, and image data starting at $5 per 1,000 queries (with a $5 monthly credit included), ensuring AI agents and applications remain grounded in fresh, human-representative data without the baggage of third-party tracking.

## Recent Public Talks and Demos

### [Stop the Confident BS: Reflective Retrieval Agents and Human-in-the-Loop Interrupts](https://cologne.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_LyKSpKSeRVQ)

We built a reflective agent prototype that evaluates its own retrieved context and halts for human clarification before it hallucinates. In the live demo, we'll first break a standard one-prompt RAG setup to show how it confidently gives answers when faced with poorly defined context. Then, we will query our prototype, showcasing the live execution. You will see the agent evaluate its context, hit an uncertainty threshold, trigger a Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) interrupt to ask for missing parameters, and finally generate a factually grounded answer.
