FAQs

What is the AI Mode API Extension?

The AI Mode API Extension is a browser extension that transforms Google’s AI
Mode into a programmable API endpoint. Once installed, it runs locally in your browser and lets
you query AI Mode from anywhere — your terminal, scripts, applications, or automation tools —
and receive structured JSON responses containing the AI-generated answer, follow-up questions,
and source links.

What is AI Mode?

AI Mode is Google’s AI-powered search experience that provides conversational
answers, follow-up suggestions, and source links instead of traditional search results: ten blue
links. This tool lets you access those responses programmatically.

What data do I get back from the API?

Each response includes three parts: the main AI-generated answer, suggested
follow-up questions, and source links that AI Mode references.

Is this free?

Yes, completely free to use.

Are there rate limits?

Yes. Since this relies on browser-based AI Mode access, there are rate limits
similar to using AI Mode manually. This is best suited for research and monitoring, not
high-volume production use.

Do you store my queries?

No. Nothing is logged or stored — requests pass through the relay without
being retained.

Can I self-host the server?

We’re planning to open source the server code, so you’ll be able to run your
own infrastructure.

Which browsers work?

Any Chromium-based browser (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, etc.).

Do I have to be logged in to extract data?

No, you don’t need to be logged into a Google account to use this.
