MIAPI
MIAPI is an AI‑focused research tool that lets developers retrieve web, news, image, and document information through programmable queries.
About this tool
MIAPI is built for developers who need to embed external information retrieval directly into their code. It supports multiple query types—standard web search, news‑only search, image lookup, and a combined knowledge mode that merges search results with supplied documents. The service returns either raw results or synthesized answers, allowing developers to choose the level of processing that fits their workflow.
The platform offers ready‑made client libraries for OpenAI, Python, and JavaScript, making it straightforward to call the API from a range of environments. Its purpose is to accelerate AI research and prototype development by handling the data‑gathering step, so developers can focus on model design and analysis.
What you can do
Web and News Retrieval
Send a query and receive either a list of web pages or a curated set of recent news articles. The operation returns raw results that can be filtered or displayed directly in an application.
Image Search Capability
Query the service for images related to a topic and obtain URLs or metadata for each match. This enables visual data collection without leaving the development environment.
Knowledge Mode Synthesis
Provide documents alongside a query; the system merges the external search with the supplied text to generate a concise answer. This reduces the need for separate post‑processing steps.
Who is it for?
- A data‑science team builds a market‑trend dashboard that pulls the latest news and web articles about a product category, then uses the knowledge mode to summarize key points for each trend.
- A developer creates an educational chatbot that answers student questions by searching the web and combining those results with a curated textbook PDF, delivering clear explanations.
- An image‑curation app automatically fetches relevant pictures for a given keyword, then presents the URLs to users for selection or further analysis.

Frequently asked questions
What programming languages can I use to call MIAPI?
MIAPI supplies client libraries for Python and JavaScript, and it can be accessed through OpenAI's API framework, allowing integration from any language that can make HTTP requests.
Can I retrieve both raw search results and synthesized answers in a single request?
The platform separates operations: a standard web or news search returns raw results, while the knowledge mode combines search output with supplied documents to produce an answer. You would need to invoke the appropriate operation based on the desired output.
Is image search limited to specific file types or sources?
Image search returns URLs and basic metadata for images that match the query; the service does not impose explicit restrictions on file types, but the returned links reflect what is publicly indexed.
