Exa launches Connect GA, taps leading external data providers
What happened
Between the Jun 22, 2026 and Jun 29, 2026 captures of Exa's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Agent plan feature bullet changed from 'Beta access available now' to 'Access leading data providers', indicating GA launch and Exa Connect data provider integration. Pulse files it as a product change (feature change). Pulse's latest capture (Nov 9, 2026) lists Search at $7 per 1k requests, up to 10 results + $1 per 1k page AI summaries, Agent at $0.01 per search tool call + $0.10 per request (Medium effort), Contents at $1 per 1k pages, per content type + $1 per 1k page AI summaries, Deep Search at $12 per 1k requests, up to 10 results + $1 per 1k requests, additional result above 10 and Monitors at $1 per 1k requests, additional result above 10 + $1 per 1k page AI summaries.
It lands 35 days after Exa's previous change, "Exa launches Agent endpoint for async research at $0.025–$2.00/run" (May 25, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Exa launches custom index feature for Enterprise search plans" (Apr 9, 2026). Exa has been tracked since 2024-11-17.
