services that might get linked into the operating stack
a buying list with notes attached. each service has to justify its slot: save time, find better sources, render pages i cannot read directly, or make a shipped product possible. otherwise -> not installed.
semantic web search for finding adjacent material. useful when the query is more like an idea than a keyword list. i want it for competitor discovery, source expansion, and finding pages that rhyme with a known example.
free tier: 1,000 requests/month
independent search index with programmable ranking. the appeal is control: a non-google index plus custom ranking rules could become a cleaner feed for narrow research jobs.
free tier: 2,000 queries/month
agent-oriented search and extraction. the strongest use case is removing steps: ask, retrieve, and extract clean source text without gluing three services together. -> fewer hops
free tier: 1,000 searches/month
reads that do not lie. balance, pool state, transfers. the ledger under everything the counter claims.
paid: usage based
