1. **How is Octen different from other search APIs?** > Octen is built from the ground up for LLMs and agents. We offer industry-leading latency, SOTA search models, and real-time index updates. Our output structure is designed for LLM understanding and reasoning. For most use cases, you can directly use Octen without any additional processing. 2. **How do I connect Octen to my agent quickly?** > Use Octen Agent Skills, the MCP server, or the CLI to add Octen to your agent in one step. See [Octen Skills](/integrations/octen-skills), [Octen MCP Server](/integrations/octen-mcp-server), and [Octen CLI](/integrations/octen-cli). 3. **Can I request specific domains or content types to be indexed?** > Enterprise customers can submit indexing requests. Contact [support@octen.ai](mailto:support@octen.ai) with your domains and use case. 4. **Can I use Octen with OpenAI SDK or LangChain/LlamaIndex?** > Yes. 5. **Can I use Octen embeddings with other vector databases?** > Yes. Octen embeddings are standard float vectors, compatible with all major vector databases. 6. **Can I make batch requests to improve throughput?** > Embedding API supports batch input. Search API only supports single-query requests. 7. **How can I track my usage and spending?** > The API platform provides real-time usage monitoring, credit consumption, and per-API-key usage breakdown. 8. **What happens when I run out of credits?** > API requests will return a `403` error. Monitor your usage in the dashboard and top up balance before running out. 9. **How do plan upgrades or downgrades work?** > Upgrades take effect immediately with prorated billing. Downgrades take effect at the start of your next billing cycle. 10. **Will my queries or data be used for model training?** > No. Your queries and data are not used to train our models. 11. **How fresh are the search results? How often is the index updated?** > Our index updates continuously in real-time (ingested in seconds and updated in minutes). Most results reflect the current state of web pages. 12. **Why are my search results different from what I expected?** > Check your query phrasing, domain/date filters, and topic coverage. Try adjusting parameters or rephrasing your query. 13. **Can I filter results by domain, date, language, or region?** > Yes. See the Web Search API Reference for details. 14. **How do I report a bug or request a new feature?** > Email [support@octen.ai](mailto:support@octen.ai) ***Last modified on October 9, 2026
