# Exa Integration Enhancements
|
||||
|
||||
**Date**: 2025-01-29
|
||||
**Status**: Enhanced based on Exa documentation
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Enhanced ALwrity's Exa integration based on comprehensive Exa documentation to provide better search type selection, improved tooltips, and support for advanced features like Deep search.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Enhancements
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Enhanced Search Type Tooltips
|
||||
|
||||
Updated tooltips to match Exa's official documentation with accurate latency and use case information:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Fast**: <500ms - Speed-critical applications, real-time apps, voice agents
|
||||
- **Auto (Default)**: ~1000ms - Best of all worlds, intelligently combines methods
|
||||
- **Deep**: ~5000ms - Comprehensive research, agentic workflows, multi-hop queries
|
||||
- **Neural**: Variable - Semantic similarity, exploratory searches
|
||||
- **Keyword**: Fastest - Traditional search, exact keyword matching
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Updated AI Prompt
|
||||
|
||||
Enhanced the `unified_research_analyzer.py` prompt to better understand:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Latency-quality tradeoffs**: When to use Fast vs Auto vs Deep
|
||||
- **Search type selection guidelines**: Based on use case (SimpleQA, FRAMES, MultiLoKo, etc.)
|
||||
- **Deep search requirements**: Context=true required, additionalQueries support
|
||||
- **Livecrawl options**: When to use fallback vs preferred for freshness
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Added Deep Search Support
|
||||
|
||||
- Added 'deep' to search type options
|
||||
- Updated frontend types to support 'deep'
|
||||
- Enhanced tooltips to explain Deep search capabilities
|
||||
- Added guidance on when Deep search is appropriate
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Improved Tooltip Content
|
||||
|
||||
All Exa options now have comprehensive tooltips that include:
|
||||
- Clear descriptions
|
||||
- When to use
|
||||
- Latency information (for search types)
|
||||
- Quality characteristics
|
||||
- Best practices
|
||||
- AI recommendations (when available)
|
||||

|
||||
## Search Type Selection Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
Based on Exa documentation, the AI now understands:
|
||||
|
||||
### Fast Search (<500ms)
|
||||
- **Use for**: SimpleQA-style factual QA, real-time applications, voice agents, autocomplete
|
||||
- **Characteristics**: Streamlined models, good factual accuracy
|
||||
- **Best for**: Speed-critical applications
|
||||
|
||||
### Auto Search (~1000ms) - Default
|
||||
- **Use for**: General-purpose research, production workloads, versatile queries
|
||||
- **Characteristics**: Intelligently combines multiple methods, reranker adapts to query
|
||||
- **Best for**: Most use cases when unsure which method is best
|
||||
|
||||
### Deep Search (~5000ms)
|
||||
- **Use for**: Agentic workflows (FRAMES, MultiLoKo, BrowseComp), complex research, multi-hop queries
|
||||
- **Characteristics**: Query expansion, rich contextual summaries, comprehensive coverage
|
||||
- **Requirements**: context=true for detailed summaries
|
||||
- **Best for**: When comprehensive coverage > speed
|
||||
|
||||
### Neural Search
|
||||
- **Use for**: Exploratory searches, semantic similarity, finding related concepts
|
||||
- **Characteristics**: Embeddings-based 'next-link prediction', understands meaning
|
||||
- **Note**: Also incorporated into Fast and Auto search types
|
||||
|
||||
### Keyword Search
|
||||
- **Use for**: Exact keyword matching, specific terms, brands
|
||||
- **Characteristics**: Traditional search, fastest, max 10 results
|
||||
- **Best for**: Precise keyword searches

## Backend Changes
|
||||
|
||||
### Updated AI Prompt (`unified_research_analyzer.py`)
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Enhanced search type descriptions** with latency and use case information
|
||||
2. **Added Deep search guidelines** including:
|
||||
- When to use Deep search
|
||||
- Requirements (context=true)
|
||||
- Additional queries support
|
||||
3. **Added livecrawl options** with latency impact information
|
||||
4. **Improved provider selection logic** based on query characteristics
|
||||
|
||||
### Schema Updates
|
||||
|
||||
Added support for:
|
||||
- `type: "deep"` in exa_config
|
||||
- `additionalQueries: []` for Deep search query variations
|
||||
- `livecrawl: "fallback|never|preferred|always"` for freshness control
