New Data Scope: Web (Beta) - Seltz

Released: October 14, 2026 The scope parameter on /search and /answer now accepts a new web scope, in beta, alongside news, people, companies, financial-reports, and wikipedia. It searches a general crawl of the web together with Wikipedia.

Highlights

General web coverage — Company and product sites, documentation, blogs, reference pages, news sites, and Wikipedia in one scope.
The new default — A request without a scope now searches web instead of news. To keep the previous behavior, pass scope: "news".
Works with Search, Answer, and Monitor — Retrieve full-text results directly, or get an answer grounded in citations from the web.
Beta — Coverage and ranking can change while the scope is in beta.

Quick Start

from seltz import Seltz

client = Seltz(api_key="your-api-key")

response = client.search(
    "How do I rotate an API key in Kubernetes secrets?",
    scope="web",
)

for document in response.documents:
    print(document.url)

import { Seltz } from "seltz";

const client = new Seltz({ apiKey: "your-api-key" });

const response = await client.search({
  query: "How do I rotate an API key in Kubernetes secrets?",
  scope: "web",
});

for (const document of response.documents) {
  console.log(document.url);
}

curl -X POST https://api.seltz.ai/v1/search \
  -H "x-api-key: $SELTZ_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "How do I rotate an API key in Kubernetes secrets?", "scope": "web"}'
