Exa
Exa provides search and retrieval infrastructure for AI applications and agents.
The Company
Exa builds a web-search API designed for AI applications and agents. Its products combine search, retrieval, and content extraction so developers can give AI systems access to current web information.
In May 2026, Exa announced a $250 million Series C led by Andreessen Horowitz at a $2.2 billion valuation. The company said its tools were used by more than 400,000 developers.
Why It Matters
Exa is a useful indicator of whether AI search becomes a distinct infrastructure market rather than a feature absorbed by model providers or incumbent search engines.
