For AI agents: a documentation index is available at https://docs.parallel.ai/llms.txt. The full text of all docs is at https://docs.parallel.ai/llms-full.txt. You may also fetch any page as Markdown by appending .md to its URL or sending Accept: text/markdown.For Search and Extract, use /v1/search and /v1/extract for all new integrations and agent tool calls. Use /v1beta/search and /v1beta/extract only when maintaining an existing integration that already uses them. Do not substitute /v1 for the documented FindAll or Ingest endpoint paths.

​
Platform

A default API key is generated when you signup to Platform. You can create and manage keys via Settings.
Go to Platform > Usage for real-time request counts, and spend.
Owners can invite users under Settings in Platform. Choose “Admin” or “Member” roles.
Subject to our Terms of Service - you own the output you create with Parallel, including the right to reprint, sell, and merchandise.

​
APIs

Yes — Task Run Results from one execution can map to Task Run Input fields in another execution. For example, in one Task Run, you can identify the address of a business using a simple processor. Then, in the next Task Run you identify additional details about the business, given business name and address.
Yes, you can do this with Source Policy. This is available for the Task, Search, and Monitor APIs today.
Parallel is focused on reasoning and retrieval over the public web. For now, we only access what can be reached on the public web without authentication (e.g. signing in with credentials).
Our strength is reasoning and retrieval over text. We can recognize some on‑page images (e.g. detect customer logos), but we don’t accept images as inputs or return them as outputs yet.
With the Task API, our web research is up to date to the current day. We are able to access live web links at the time of your query to ensure data is as real time as possible. For lower end processors in the Search API and Chat API, our systems prioritize reduced latency over freshness.
Parallel focuses on public web information. You can pass private data into a task as an input variable or post‑process the output on your side, but we don’t pull it natively.

​
Billing & Payments

Parallel Processors incorporate usage-based pricing. All pricing details for API and Processor are available here.
Yes. Organization admins can set a monthly spend limit for the whole organization, or for an individual app, under Settings in Platform. Limits are whole dollars and reset at the beginning of each calendar month.When monthly spend reaches the limit, all organization admins receive an email. Limits are notify-only; they never block requests.

​
Security & Compliance

Yes. Parallel is SOC-II Type 1 and Type II certified as of April 2025. Email us at partnerships@parallel.ai to request access to our full report in Trust Center.
All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest in US-based data centers.
No. Parallel focuses on public web information. You can pass private data into a task as an input variable or post‑process the output on your side, but we don’t pull it natively. In the future we plan on building tools that will allow you to more easily point Parallel to your own sources.
Private‑cloud and on‑prem options are available for qualified enterprise customers—ask our team at partnerships@parallel.ai.
Never. Inputs and outputs remain yours. We do not use customer data to train any models. See our Terms of Service for details.
