Cortex Research announces Tavily as the web intelligence layer powering real-time knowledge and retrieval for its flagship AI platform.

Cortex Research × Tavily

For Immediate Release

Cortex Research today announced that Tavily has been selected as the official web engine powering real-time knowledge and web intelligence for its flagship AI platform, Vera. This integration marks a significant milestone in Cortex Research's mission to deliver advanced, high-performance Agentic AI systems capable of reasoning over current information with accuracy and reliability.

As organizations increasingly demand AI solutions that operate with up-to-date context and production-grade performance, access to structured, real-time web data has become essential. Tavily provides the infrastructure necessary for Vera to retrieve, process, and reason over live information — enabling research workflows, customer interactions, and autonomous decision-making powered by current data rather than static training sets.


"This partnership with Tavily represents a critical advancement in our ability to deploy Vera at enterprise scale. Real-time web intelligence is foundational to delivering AI that doesn't just recall what it learned during training — but understands what's happening right now. Tavily's architecture gives us the retrieval speed, data quality, and scalability we need to power responsible AI deployment across the UK and beyond."

— Tudor Iustin, CEO, Cortex Research
