# Web search built for AI scale

**Web infrastructure for AI to search, extract, monitor, and reason over the world's information.**

Welcome to the official Parallel organization on Hugging Face. We build web APIs for AI agents. Give your models access to current information: search the web, extract useful content, research complex questions, monitor changes, and make decisions grounded in web evidence.

[Website](https://parallel.ai/) · [Get started](https://platform.parallel.ai/) · [Documentation](https://docs.parallel.ai/) · [GitHub](https://github.com/parallel-web) · [Blog](https://parallel.ai/blog)

## Get started with your agent

Copy this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or your preferred coding agent:

```text
Use curl to read https://parallel.ai/agents.md and perform the setup to install Parallel.
```

[View the setup instructions](https://parallel.ai/agents.md) · [Start building for free](https://platform.parallel.ai/)

## Build with Parallel

- **[Search API](https://docs.parallel.ai/search/search-quickstart)** — Find relevant web sources and retrieve excerpts designed for language models.
- **[Extract API](https://docs.parallel.ai/extract/extract-quickstart)** — Turn web pages into clean content for your agent's context.
- **[Decisions API](https://docs.parallel.ai/decisions/decisions-quickstart)** — Answer closed-ended questions using evidence from the live web.
- **[Task API](https://docs.parallel.ai/task-api/task-quickstart)** — Run deep research and return structured outputs with citations.
- **[FindAll API](https://docs.parallel.ai/findall-api/findall-quickstart)** — Discover companies, people, and other entities that match your criteria.
- **[Monitor API](https://docs.parallel.ai/monitor-api/monitor-quickstart)** — Track topics on the web and receive updates when new information appears.

## Research and evaluation

We're interested in how well AI systems find evidence and use it: web search, retrieval, deep research, and grounded decision-making. This organization is a home for Parallel's evaluation datasets and research resources.

For your own evaluations, start with our [Search evaluation guide](https://docs.parallel.ai/search/evaluating-search) and [API documentation](https://docs.parallel.ai/).
