Why this instead of a generic web-search/RAG tool

Most "AI web search" tools (including Apify's own RAG Web Browser) hand you raw scraped page text and leave the synthesis to you — you still have to parse multiple pages, extract the fact you actually want, and shape it into your own data model. This Actor does that whole pipeline for you: you describe the shape of the answer you want, and you get back exactly that shape, already populated and grounded in a live search, with sources attached.

What you can use this for

AI agents / LLM apps that need a quick, cited fact lookup as a tool call, without building their own search+extract pipeline.
Data enrichment pipelines — turn a list of entities into structured facts about each one, one schema, repeated calls.
Chatbots and internal tools that need current, sourced answers rather than a model's stale training-data guess.

Input

Field	Description	Default
`question`	What you want researched	population example
`outputSchema`	JSON object describing the fields you want back, e.g. `{"population": "number", "foundedYear": "number or null"}`	example schema
`context`	Extra detail to scope/disambiguate the question (optional)	—
`model`	Gemini model	`gemini-3.8-flash`
`apiKey`	Your own Gemini API key (optional — leave blank to use the Actor's key)	—

Every field has a working default — hit Start with no changes and you'll get a result.

Output

Whatever fields you asked for in outputSchema, populated and grounded, plus:

{
  "population": 979882,
  "foundedYear": 1839,
  "state": "Texas",
  "sources": [{ "url": "https://...", "title": "..." }],
  "searchQueries": ["..."],
  "groundingUsed": true,
  "model": "gemini-3.8-flash",
  "verifiedAt": "2026-09-08T12:00:00.000Z"
}

Pricing

Pay-per-event: $0.15 per question researched. No subscription, no minimum.
