Introducing Web Search API via AI Gateway

Cloudflare AI Gateway now supports native web search API integration through partnerships with Ceramic.ai, Exa, and Linkup. This allows developers to inject real-time web context into model inference calls using AI Gateway, REST APIs, or Workers bindings. Separately, discussions on API gateway architecture highlight their utility for TLS, rate limiting, and access logging at the edge, while cautioning against overloading gateway configurations with business logic, such as customer plan checks or complex response field renaming.
