Paste one prompt to replace Exa

Your agent reads the looot setup file once, then runs the jobs below and shows each price first.

Prompt to replace Exa

Prompt to replace Exa
Use looot to find web pages that match the description I give you, read each one, and return the title, URL and a two-line summary as a table. If you have not yet, set up https://looot.ai/skill.md first. Then search the looot catalog for each step, check the price of each endpoint before you call it, run the cheapest one that fits, and show me the results as a table.

Setup

One prompt, one price, one ledger

The same three steps every looot agent follows.

Questions about replacing Exa

Partly. An agent running looot can do some of what Exa does through catalog endpoints, and the page marks the jobs it cannot do.

looot has no monthly seat. You pay per call to the provider you pick, and the catalog shows each endpoint's price before you run it. Whether that comes out cheaper than Exa depends on your volume.

List prices change, so check Exa's own pricing page. This page does not repeat them. The looot side is read live from the catalog on the web version of this page.

An agent with a looot connection can call the providers behind Exa's data jobs directly. The providers used here are exa, tavily, linkup, parallel, jina, diffbot, zyte-api, people-data-labs, ai-ark, lusha, prospeo.

Not covered: websets that refresh. Keep Exa for those, or use another tool beside looot.

Paste the agent prompt on this page into your coding agent. It sets up looot, finds the endpoints for each job and runs them. You can edit the prompt to match your own inputs.

No. looot calls its own providers and does not connect to your Exa account. Your existing Exa data stays where it is.

Yes. Exa search, contents, find similar and answer are in the looot catalog, paid per call. Find similar has no second provider yet, so for that one job Exa is the only choice.

Try the Exa replacement with your own agent.

Start your workspace, top up, and paste the prompt into the agent you already use.
