What We Shipped: August 2026 | Tavily Blog

Language models keep getting better at reasoning, which means, the limiting factor has moved from the model to the quality of information it receives. So, the Tavily team spent the past several months overhauling core parts of our search system, including reranking and evidence-quality modeling; evidence deduplication and contradiction handling; and index coverage and temporal freshness.

Now, Tavily ranks #1 on SealQA-Hard, SealQA-0, and SimpleQA Verified. We wrote out why we made these improvements, the evaluation method we used, plus when and how they help your agents.

Customer banner## How Rox cut account research from a week to seconds

Rox (https://www.rox.com/) helps the Global 2,000 automate their entire revenue cycles. But, to make that happen, their agents need to work off of what’s happeningright now, and need to be trusted to work across thousands of accounts, fast.

Multiple providers were tested, but ultimately, Rox chose Tavily based on cost, a good working relationship with the Tavily team, and unmatched results in their own evals.

Tavily now handles millions of Rox’s search and extraction requests a day, each answered in milliseconds, so a fresh signal lands on a rep’s screen in a few seconds.

Partner banner## Tavily joins the Nebius Builder Program

The Nebius Builder Program is now live in early preview. Builders who join the program can learn the Nebius, Tavily, and Token Factory stack, and gain access to the Builder community. When you join, you get Tavily and Token Factory credits, office hours with Nebius engineers, and can take the Nebius Academy certification.

If you’re looking to try a model, explore inference, add web grounding, take part in training, or learn how the Nebius stack works, this free-to-join program is a must.

Product banner## A starter kit for financial AI agents

Choosing the right retrieval layer for agents in investment research, AML, and risk workflows comes with its own challenges in compliance and audits. On top of delivering accurate findings, teams need to know their web search API is built for secure, auditable retrieval. So, our team put together a run through on how to choose the right provider, and built a starter kit for teams in the finance industry.

The Financial Services & Insurance Kit (https://github.com/tavily-ai/tavily-industry-demos/tree/main/fsi-kit) includes a quick-start guide and reference architecture to help you get started with building agents for compliance intelligence, investment research, and merchant risk.

New integrations: Convex, OpenCode, and NanoClaw

Convex

Add real-time search and content extraction to a Convex app as an isolated Convex component with tavily/convex-tavily. Your app calls a typed TavilyClient; the component keeps your API key in typed Convex environment config, and owns no database tables of its own. Learn more → (https://docs.tavily.com/documentation/integrations/convex)

OpenCode

Give your agents reliable web search and extract with the opencode-tavily plugin in OpenCode, the open-source terminal coding agent. Once installed, your agent can run commands directly from the terminal, with all output routed to a .tavily/ directory so it doesn’t flood context. Learn more → (https://docs.tavily.com/documentation/integrations/opencode)

NanoClaw

Your lightweight, persistent NanoClaw agents in Slack, Telegram, and the CLI can now Search and Extract the live web with no API key required using the new Tavily integration. You can run /add-tavily-tool in NanoClaw providers that support MCP, like Claude, Codex, and OpenCode, and install it on multiple agent groups. Learn more → (https://github.com/nanocoai/nanoclaw)

Community banner## On the road

The Tavily team was global in August, supporting hackathons; attending, hosting, and co-hosting events. Evan Rimer from our FDE team gave a talk hosted by Stripe Developers on why web search built for humans doesn’t hold up for agents: humans optimize for clicks, agents need to optimize for the next decision. Watch the talk → (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ex1yj3ZKcN0&t=181s)

Our team also showed up at an IBM event this month, and caught up with builders around Fenway Park and Santa Clara.
