Curious how to make 'Slackbot' have up-to-date info on what happened this morning? Check out this session at Dreamforce featuring Saurabh Sharma and Gabe Kalal on how Slackbot got smarter with You.com powered real-time web intelligence. Worth a watch if you're thinking about what real-time web intelligence can unlock for AI agents.

We're partnering with Baseten to make the case for open-weight models. Paired with You.com web search, they become a credible, cost-effective alternative to proprietary models. Braintrust's independent evaluation backs the reason why: the web search layer predicts accuracy far more than which model you pick. Most teams reach for the biggest closed model when the actual problem is stale information. Braintrust tested it on 1,329 current-events questions. Without web search the four models ranged from 2.80% to 50.71%. With the same You.com results, 79.20% to 84.82%. That's the whole bet. The cost gap did not collapse with it. DeepSeek V4 Flash on Baseten answered 80.66% correctly at $0.0163 per question. Claude Sonnet 5 answered 79.23% at $0.0747. Roughly the same accuracy, 4.6x the price. Or put another way: which web search setup you use explained 0.0263 of the accuracy score. Which model you pick explained 0.0006. Today Baseten is launching Hosted Tools in preview, with You.com web search live at launch. If you're already running a model on Baseten, web search runs inside the inference path instead of in your app. The only change to your existing Chat Completions call is one line: tools=[{"type": "baseten__you__search"}] No separate vendor integration, no round trip per query, no resending the full conversation each turn. Fewer moving parts, up-to-date answers, open-weight economics.
Until now, adding web search to open-source models meant hand-wiring orchestration, managing separate keys, and paying latency taxes on every round trip. Today, we're solving that. We're excited to introduce Baseten Hosted Tools and Baseten Grounded Inference to bring real-time web search server-side to open models running on Baseten through a single configuration. - 15% lower latency compared to client-side execution - No extra vendor key required - Zero orchestration We're launching this preview version with four leading web search partners, Exa, Keenable.ai, Parallel Web Systems, and You.com. Get frontier-level web search parity for your open-weight models. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/dCWk9EEB

You can now build a research agent in n8n without writing a polling loop. Until this release, running a frontier research query from n8n meant hand-building the plumbing: an HTTP Request node to start the job, a Wait node, an IF branch checking a status string you had to dig out of the docs, and a loop back around. Miss the timing and the workflow handed the next node a result that did not exist yet. The workflow now: 1. Research node in background mode returns a task id immediately. 2. Get Research Task polls until the status comes back "completed". What this unlocks: → Long research jobs stop dying at the execution window. Frontier effort runs to completion. → Your AI Agent picks the tool. All 7 operations run as agent sub-nodes. → Structured output. Pass an output_schema, insert straight into a database. Type You.com in the n8n node panel to begin.

It's show week. Here's where to find us at Dreamforce 2026: Booth 403, all week, with personalized live demos, the slot car racetrack, and the Dreamforce treat trailer. Come for the demo, stay for the lap time, leave with a snack. Our CPO Saurabh Sharma is also speaking twice this week on how real-time web intelligence changes what agents can actually do. Come say hi, and bring the question nobody has answered for you yet.

Fair warning: Booth 403 may cause competitive outbursts. We're bringing a full slot-car racetrack to Dreamforce, and yes, we're keeping score. Beat the best lap time, walk away with bragging rights (and some very good swag). Sept 15–17, Booth 403. #DF26

Most AI scientist tools start from a blank page. Chembricks starts from the state of the art, and validates everything afterwards. Their AI scientist takes on prompts like this one: design a liquid that stores hydrogen fuel and releases it on demand, holding at least 5.5% hydrogen by weight (the US Department of Energy target), with a release energy between 9.6 and 16.7 kcal per mole of H₂. Before it proposes a single molecule, it uses You.com web search to ground itself in the current state of the art research. Then it runs its own work: running Chembricks quantum physics based AI models to predict internal energies, comparing options like N-ethylcarbazole against 1,3,5-triazine on thermal stability. Web search is one tool in that agent, but it plays a specific role: It grounds the AI scientist to what chemists have already published, tried, and validated, so it starts from real ground instead of guessing. Chembricks is building the quantum physics validation layer for AI driven science: an AI scientist trained with expert verified quantum chemistry data that predicts molecular properties in milliseconds. We're proud to partner with web intelligence that keeps that science grounded in the SOTA scientific literature. See it work: chembricks.ai

Claude ships with basic web search. It holds up until your agent needs dense, current context mid-loop, and then retrieval becomes the slowest step in an otherwise fast workflow. You.com now runs in both places you already work: a connector in Claude Desktop, and a plugin in Claude Code. You get real-time search, full page extraction, and cited multi-tier research, all on the same production index that powers our API. Setup is one step either way. Search the connector directory for You.com and click Connect, or run /plugin install youdotcom-agent-skills@claude-plugins-official in Claude Code. Install it and stop treating web search like an afterthought in your agent's tool belt.
