Overview
Keenable builds independent web search infrastructure for AI labs, inference providers and developers of AI agents and large-scale AI applications. It runs its own index of more than 100 billion documents and serves it through a search API with an MCP server, a web query language called SELECT that computes answers over thousands of pages, and Time Machine, a point-in-time search over past versions of the web. The company was founded in 2025 by former Yandex and Amazon AGI search leaders, and it came out of stealth in August 2026 with a $26 million seed round led by Accel.
