Common questions

Isn't this just summarization?

No. Summarization loses information. webref restructures it. Search results often repeat the same facts across multiple sources with slightly different wording — we merge that into one cohesive document. The same technical details, just without the redundancy. Nothing useful gets cut.

Why not use cheaper tools?

A lower per-call price can look attractive — but the real cost is what happens after. Noisy output fills your agent's context, and by query #5 it's forgetting your original instructions. webref outputs are optimized for LLMs: your agent stays sharp even after dozens of queries.

How do I verify accuracy?

Source links are embedded directly in the text as markdown. Your agent can follow any link to read the full page if it needs more depth. We're not just giving surface-level answers — we're giving your agent a clear path to dig deeper.

Is my data private?

By default, research history is saved in your account so you can review activity and debug workflows. You can enable Privacy Mode from the usage dashboard to stop saving detailed history while keeping aggregate usage counts. Research queries are processed by webref and our infrastructure providers to deliver results — we do not use your queries to train models. API keys are encrypted at rest.
