Private Research Infrastructure

Self-hosted search
that gets smarter.

Search, synthesis, and research for teams that want stronger answers without surrendering their data, workflow, or margin. Deploy privately or use managed delivery, then shape the experience around your product.

pip install nome-search
from nome_search import NomeSearch

client = NomeSearch(api_key="nsk-...")

# Instant search with synthesis
result = client.search("NVDA earnings Q1 2026", depth="deep")
print(result.answer)     # Markdown with inline [1] citations
print(result.citations)  # [{url, title, domain}, ...]

# Streaming — aspects arrive as they complete
for event in client.search_stream("Tesla vs BYD EV strategy"):
    if event.type == "aspect":
        print(f"[{event.name}] {event.content}")

# Autonomous multi-hop research agent
research = client.research(
    "How does SpotGamma HIRO indicator work?",
    max_iterations=3,
)
print(research.answer)         # Full research report
print(research.follow_up_questions)

# Browser interaction
page = client.interact(
    url="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/AAPL",
    actions=[
        {"action": "scrape", "selector": "table"},
        {"action": "screenshot"},
    ],
)

Capabilities

Everything you need to build search-powered products.

Flexible Search Depth

Dial responses for speed, breadth, or deeper investigation depending on the query and the user intent.

Structured Synthesis

Return usable answers instead of a pile of links, with support for timelines, contradictions, key facts, and follow-up work.

Retrieval Cache

Keep repeat work fast and policy-aware while preserving room for fresh results when recency matters.

Browser Workflows

Support modern sites and guided actions when plain search results are not enough for the job.

Extended Research Runs

Handle multi-step investigations that need follow-up questions, synthesis, and durable outputs rather than one-shot lookup.

SSE Streaming

Stream useful progress and partial outputs while longer research completes in the background.

SDKs + MCP Server

Plug the platform into developer tools, internal assistants, and product workflows without rebuilding your own adapter layer.

Private Deployment Options

Keep data residency, governance, and infrastructure control aligned with the environments your team already trusts.

Compounding Quality

Improve the experience over time through review, policy, and product feedback without exposing your internal playbook publicly.

Why Nome

vs. Perplexity, Tavily, Exa, Firecrawl

vs. Perplexity API

Self-hosted. Your data stays yours. Fine-tune on real usage. Price it however you want.

vs. Tavily

Free SearxNG (no per-query API cost). 6-agent synthesis vs. their single-pass. Browser automation included.

vs. Exa

Semantic cache means sub-100ms repeat queries. /interact endpoint for dynamic pages. Full pipeline, not just search.

vs. Firecrawl

Search + synthesis + research agent — not just crawling. Same browser automation plus everything else.
