AI Search in brief
AI Search lets you ask a natural-language question and get a synthesized answer with citations, grounded in Headlinne's news corpus and the live web. It is built for news and current-events questions where you want a fast, sourced answer rather than a list of links.
The questions below cover what people most often ask; the linked articles go deeper.
Common questions
The essentials at a glance:
- Where do answers come from? Headlinne's news corpus plus the live web, cited.
- Can I trust it? Every claim is cited, so you can verify—always check what matters.
- How is it different from Google? It returns a synthesized cited answer, not just links.
- How is it different from a chatbot? It retrieves current sources instead of answering from memory.
- Is there a limit? Free accounts have a daily quota; Pro and Max raise it.
- When should I use Dive Deeper instead? For full research reports, not quick answers.
Limits and plans
AI Search is included on the free plan with a daily quota of queries. If you rely on it heavily, Pro and Max raise those limits. The underlying quality is the same across plans—paid tiers change how much you can use it, not how good it is.
