Scira

Research questions on the web with source links beside the answer and search modes for specific tasks.

About this product

Scira is an AI search and research app that returns a written answer with source links. Choose general web search or narrow the request to a mode such as academic research, GitHub, or code. Scira can break a larger question into smaller searches before writing its answer.

Its hosted service has a free allowance and paid tiers for more use and a wider selection of models. The code is also available under AGPL-3.0. A self-hosted deployment still needs the service dependencies and provider credentials described in the repository, so budget for those separately.

Give it a question with an answer you can verify, such as when a library changed one API default. Open the linked release note and check that it supports both the date and the affected version. If Scira cites two sources that disagree, follow the links to see whether they are talking about different versions or environments.
