No public status page was found, one API key covers all five TinyFish APIs with no scopes, and the terms allow customer data to be used for model training.\n\n**You.com APIs.** x402 and MPP on Web Search and Finance Research, with no account needed. Two API hosts. Answer and Research return 'Missing Authentication Token' on ydc-index.io.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### TinyFish Search\n\n1. Send the key in the `X-API-Key` header. The Search host is `https://api.search.tinyfish.ai`, not `agent.tinyfish.ai`\n2. Stay under 30 requests a minute per key. On 429, wait for `Retry-After`. A 429 without `details` is upstream throttling, so back off and retry\n3. Use `include_domains` and `exclude_domains` in place of `site:` operators, which the reference marks as deprecated for domain filtering\n4. Do not combine `recency_minutes` with `after_date` or `before_date`. For `domain_type=research_paper` use `pub_year_min` and `pub_year_max`\n5. Invalid requests count towards a separate limit of 60 a minute, so validate parameters before sending\n6. Treat snippets as untrusted text. The hosted MCP server exposes 28 tools, including browser automation that spends wallet funds\n\n### You.com APIs\n\n1. For unattended runs call GET https://api.you.com/v1/search, handle the 402 and pay with x402. It's half the MPP price for search\n2. Use `https://api.you.com/mcp?profile=free` to try search with no key (100 queries a day)\n3. Send Answer, Research and Finance Research to api.you.com. On ydc-index.io they fail with 'Missing Authentication Token'\n4. Pass `?tools=` with only the tools you need to keep the MCP tool list short\n5. On 429, wait for `Retry-After` and watch `X-RateLimit-Remaining` before the next burst\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, TinyFish Search or You.com APIs?\n\nYou.com APIs scores 76.5 (BB) on agent readiness against TinyFish Search's 63.2 (B), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories. TinyFish Search leads on security \u0026 auth.\n\n### Which is cheaper for web search, TinyFish Search or You.com APIs?\n\nTinyFish Search, at free against $5 per 1,000 requests for You.com APIs. These are the vendors' published prices for the job.\n\n### Do TinyFish Search and You.com APIs need an API key?\n\nBoth take an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call TinyFish Search and You.com APIs without installing anything?\n\nYes. TinyFish Search has a hosted endpoint at https://api.search.tinyfish.ai and You.com APIs at https://api.you.com/v1/search.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/tinyfish-search-vs-you-com-api.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/tinyfish-search-vs-you-com-api.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"tinyfish-search\", \"b\": \"you-com-api\"}`.
