Overview

You.com is a multi-model AI search and agent platform that combines web search with conversational AI. Unlike traditional search engines, You.com grounds every answer in real-time web sources with citations. Users can switch between AI models (GPT-4, Claude, Gemini) within the same interface and choose specialized agents for research, coding, creative writing, and data analysis.

Founded in 2021 by Richard Socher (former Salesforce Chief Scientist) and Bryan McCann, You.com has pivoted from a privacy-first search engine to a full AI agent platform. It also offers a Web Search API for developers, with pricing from $5/1k calls, making it useful both as a consumer product and a developer tool.

Best suited for researchers who need cited answers, developers building search-augmented AI apps via the API, and users who want multi-model access without committing to a single provider. Available on web, iOS, Android, and as a Chrome extension.
