Use Cases

  • Search-as-you-type UI: Real-time autocomplete dropdown. Debounce 150-300ms.
  • Query refinement for RAG: Expand partial/ambiguous queries before calling web-search or llm-context.
  • Entity detection: Use rich=true to detect entities with title, description, and image for preview cards.
  • Typo-tolerant input: Get clean suggestions from misspelled input without separate spellcheck.

Notes

  • Latency: Designed for <100ms response times
  • Country/lang: Hints for suggestion relevance, not strict filters
  • Typo handling: Suggestions handle common typos without separate spellcheck
