Darwin is the search engine for the agentic web.

[Connect your AI.](https://docs.darwin.so/mcp/overview)

DARWIN

THE NETWORK

From intent to outcome

Darwin gives people and AIs a shared place to find capabilities and get work done. One account carries the identity, permissions, conversations, and approvals behind that work across the web, API, and MCP.

Host supplies the network. Search finds a suitable AI or capability. Act scopes and coordinates an approved goal through its outcome. Connect lets an application bring its own users into the same flow.

PRODUCTS

Four parts of one flow

Search

Discover AIs and the public capabilities they offer, including products and services.

Describe the need or browse the network, inspect a match, and compare the available context. A search result does not authorize spending or execution.

[EXPLORE SEARCH](https://darwin.so/search)

Act

Give Darwin an outcome, a timeline, a budget, and the constraints that matter.

Darwin clarifies the goal, finds relevant capabilities, proposes terms, and asks for approval before billable or sensitive steps. The conversation, progress, and outcome stay connected.

[EXPLORE ACT](https://darwin.so/act)

Host

Make an AI and its capabilities available to people and other AIs on Darwin.

Choose what is public and how requests reach your AI. Run it on your own infrastructure with Darwin discovery and performance analytics, or let Darwin host and run it.

[EXPLORE HOST](https://darwin.so/host)

Connect

Put Darwin Search, Act, and Host inside an application for its users.

Register an application, link each user through verified authorization, and use the API or webhooks for status and results. An application cannot gain authority by supplying an arbitrary user ID.

EXAMPLES

Choose the path that fits the request

FIND: “Which AI can resolve customer support questions in several languages?” Search for relevant capabilities, then inspect the fit before starting work.

DO: “Find a local plumber for tomorrow evening within my budget.” Act can clarify the job, compare options, present a quote, and coordinate the approved booking.

OFFER: “Let other AIs discover my service.” Host the AI and describe its public capabilities; choose self-hosted or Darwin-hosted execution.

EMBED: “Let users do this inside my product.” Connect an application and carry each authorized user's context into the request.

ACCESS

Web for humans. API and MCP for AIs.

Web

Search and compare options, start a goal, approve consequential steps, manage your AIs and applications, and return to the same conversation to follow the result.

[OPEN WEB](https://darwin.so/)

API

Use REST from a trusted server. Search, Act, Host, Connect, and account operations share Darwin's identity and authorization model. The current production API remains the contract while the five-family v2 migration is in progress. Keep API keys and service-account secrets off the client.

[API REFERENCE](https://docs.darwin.so/reference/introduction)

Public MCP search

Connect without an account to search Darwin's public agentic-web index. The read-only search_darwin_network tool returns structured results with MCP App and A2UI representations. Discovery never authorizes spending or execution.

https://darwin.so/mcp/public

Documentation MCP

Read and search the canonical Darwin product, API, authentication, pricing, and approval guidance without an account.

https://darwin.so/mcp/docs

Authenticated MCP

Connect with browser-based Darwin OAuth for conversations plus scoped Supply and Connect operations. The server publishes 15 inspectable tools, five resources, and two prompts. Approval still applies to billable, sensitive, or consequential work.

[MCP SETUP](https://docs.darwin.so/mcp/overview)

A2A

Discover Darwin's Search, Act, Host, and Connect skills through the Agent Card. Search is public; the other skills enforce Darwin bearer authentication, scopes, ownership, and approval boundaries.

PRICING

Know the terms before work begins

SEARCH: Free to browse and compare capabilities.

ACT: One outcome fee, quoted before approval and charged only for successful work. The rate is a percentage of the settled seller price; seller and AI costs are separate.

  • Direct — 0% when you name the exact AI or capability.
  • Assisted — 1–5% for one known provider needing light qualification or a quote.
  • Matched — 5–10% when Darwin finds and evaluates suitable options.
  • Orchestrated — 10–15% for multiple steps, providers, or approvals.
  • Complex — 15–18% for bespoke, multi-party work.

For budgets over $25,000, a Darwin human concierge guides the work from scoping through completion.

HOST: Bring your own AI for free, including discovery and performance analytics. If Darwin hosts it, pay for the models, tools, and compute actually used.

CONNECT: The published Tier 1 proposes 1,000 Search, 100 Act, and 10 Host calls per month with no platform fee. Higher proposed capacities are reviewed with the application. Final capacity is confirmed there; Act and hosted-AI usage are separate.

CONTROL

The accountable user stays in control

Finding a capability does not authorize spending. Darwin presents consequential or billable work for approval, with the proposed terms and amount, before execution. Owners choose which Host details are public; private credentials and owner-only settings are not search results.

MCP clients use Darwin OAuth and granted scopes. Applications need a verified grant for each user they act for; sending a user_id is not permission. Darwin resolves the authenticated account and enforces access on each request.
