  title: Linkup Credits Search API
  description: Production-grade web search and answer API for AI agents and LLMs. The /search endpoint grounds model responses in real-time web context, returning ranked results, sourced answers with inline citations, or schema-driven structured output. /fetch converts a URL into clean LLM-ready markdown, /research starts an asynchronous deep-research task, and /credits/balance reports remaining account credits. All endpoints authenticate with a Bearer API key.
