The Problem
An r/n8n thread asked for a search API that integrates search plus content extraction for LLM workflows. Most APIs return raw HTML breaking token limits or stripped snippets losing meaning. A Scavio + n8n workflow returns 5 typed snippets plus 1-2 full markdown extracts in one webhook call.
How Scavio Helps
- One vendor for search + extract
- Drop-in n8n HTTP Request nodes
- Typed JSON fits LLM context
- Webhook-trigger for ad-hoc; Cron for daily digest
- Lower cost than Tavily + Firecrawl combo
Relevant Platforms
Web search with knowledge graph, PAA, and AI overviews
Quick Start: Python Example
Here is a quick example searching Google for "best mcp server practices 2026":
import requests
API_KEY = "your_scavio_api_key"
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
headers={
"x-api-key": API_KEY,
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
json={"query": query},
)
data = response.json()
for result in data.get("organic_results", [])[:5]:
print(f"{result['position']}. {result['title']}")
print(f" {result['link']}\n")Built for n8n users running LLM workflows, RevOps teams building research pipelines, automation engineers
Scavio handles the search infrastructure — proxies, CAPTCHAs, rate limits, and anti-bot detection — so you can focus on building your n8n llm research assistant solution. The API returns structured JSON that is ready for processing, analysis, or feeding into AI agents.
