This repository is a curated, timeline-organized list of open-source and closed-source software that integrates AI, specifically LLMs, with web search capabilities. It targets developers and researchers interested in AI-powered search, summarization, follow-up questions, and agent-driven research, providing a valuable overview of the evolving landscape in this domain.

How It Works

The project functions as a living document, cataloging AI-powered web search tools. It categorizes software based on its ability to perform web searches, summarize findings, handle follow-up questions, or act as an agent for research. The timeline format highlights the chronological development and introduction of these tools, offering insight into trends and advancements.

Highlighted Details

• Lists both open-source and closed-source AI web search solutions.
• Organized chronologically by initial commit or launch date.
• Includes links to demos, screenshots, homepages, videos, and walkthroughs for many entries.
• Covers a wide range of use cases from simple LLM summarization to complex agent-driven research.

Maintenance & Community

This is a community-curated list, with contributions indicated by the initial commit dates. Further community engagement details (e.g., Discord, Slack, roadmap) are not specified in the provided README.

Licensing & Compatibility

The repository itself is a list and does not have a specific license mentioned. The listed software projects have their own individual licenses, which would need to be checked separately for compatibility and commercial use.

Limitations & Caveats

The README does not provide installation instructions or technical requirements, as it is a curated list rather than a software project itself. The "Open Source" and "Closed Source" distinction is made, but specific licensing details for each tool are not included.
