Web Index · One index, every app

One index.Every askFinz appreads from it.

Chat, Research, Search and News don't each keep their own private view of the web — they all read the same live index. Build something new on top of askFinz and it inherits that library too, without a separate integration for each surface.

What it powers, today

Four apps. One shared library underneath.

Why a single index, not four

Every surface gets better at once, because there's only one thing to improve.

Consistency across every surface

Ask the same question in Chat and in Search and both are drawing on the same library — not two products with two different views of the web that happen to disagree.

Everything gets fresher, not just one app

A page read once — by the crawler, the extension, a partner feed — becomes available to every app at once. Improving the index improves all four surfaces simultaneously.

One place to get it right

Citations, freshness and coverage are solved once, in the index, rather than reimplemented per app with a different set of gaps in each.

What this page is not saying

The index isn't sold on its own. The apps built on it are the product.

There's no API key that hands a third-party agent raw access to this index today, and this page isn't pitching one. What's on offer is the set of apps that already read from it — Chat, Research, Search and News — each one a different way of asking the same library a question.

Questions

Can I access the index directly, as an API or feed for my own agent?

Not today. The index powers askFinz's own apps — Chat, Research, Search and News — and isn't currently sold or licensed as a standalone feed. That's a decision rather than a limitation; if there's enough demand for it, it's something we'd look at. See how the index works for the full answer.

So how do I actually use it?

Through the apps built on it. Ask a question in Chat, start a project in Research, search directly, or read a News briefing — all four are reading from the same live index behind the scenes.

Does every app see the same data?

Yes — there is one index, not four separate ones. A page indexed for one surface is available to all of them the moment it's read.

Why not just sell index access — wouldn't that be simpler?

It would be a different business. Today the index exists to make askFinz's own apps better, and keeping it that way is what lets it grow toward whatever those apps need next rather than toward what an external contract requires.

Use the apps built on it

One index. Four ways to ask it something.

Chat for a conversation, Research for a cited project, Search for a direct lookup, News for what's fresh — pick the shape that fits what you're doing, and all four are reading from the same place.
