Benchmark comparison across Cost (CPM) and Accuracy (%). CPM: USD per 1000 requests. Cost is shown on a Log scale. 

**\*\*Dataset\*\***

We evaluated search providers against five open benchmarks covering complementary aspects of agentic search: BrowseComp (hard multi-hop questions that require navigating the live web), Frames (multi-document factoid reasoning), FreshQA (time-sensitive questions where the correct answer depends on recent web information), HLE (Humanity's Last Exam — expert-level academic questions spanning math, science, and humanities), SealQA (ambiguity-robust factoid QA with intentionally misleading snippets), WebWalker (tasks designed around following links across pages to find an answer). 

**\*\*Evaluation methodology\*\***

Every task is run through a shared deep-research harness: a single GPT-5.4 agent is given two tools (web search and web fetch) with an iterative budget of up to `` `MAX_TOOL_CALLS=25` `` tool calls per question. The agent plans sub-queries, fans out searches, fetches specific pages when snippets are insufficient, and returns an answer when it exhausts the number of allowed tool calls or has sufficient information to answer the question. Each answer is then LLM-graded by GPT-5.4\. We report accuracy of the final answer.

We measure accuracy and overall cost, which includes LLM token costs and tool call costs.

We evaluated search providers against five open benchmarks covering complementary aspects of agentic search: BrowseComp (hard multi-hop questions that require navigating the live web), Frames (multi-document factoid reasoning), FreshQA (time-sensitive questions where the correct answer depends on recent web information), HLE (Humanity's Last Exam — expert-level academic questions spanning math, science, and humanities), SealQA (ambiguity-robust factoid QA with intentionally misleading snippets), WebWalker (tasks designed around following links across pages to find an answer). 

**\*\*Evaluation methodology\*\***

Every task is run through a shared deep-research harness: a single GPT-5.4 agent is given two tools (web search and web fetch) with an iterative budget of up to `` `MAX_TOOL_CALLS=25` `` tool calls per question. The agent plans sub-queries, fans out searches, fetches specific pages when snippets are insufficient, and returns an answer when it exhausts the number of allowed tool calls or has sufficient information to answer the question. Each answer is then LLM-graded by GPT-5.4\. We report accuracy of the final answer.

We measure accuracy and overall cost, which includes LLM token costs and tool call costs.

## ### Coding

| Series   | Model             | Cost (CPM) | Accuracy (%) |
| -------- | ----------------- | ---------- | ------------ |
| Parallel | Parallel Advanced | 154        | 82           |
| Parallel | Parallel Basic    | 269        | 81           |
| Others   | Exa               | 331        | 80           |
| Others   | Tavily            | 352        | 75           |

CPM: USD per 1000 requests. Cost is shown on a Log scale.
