Do you store my code?

For public sources, we store embeddings and chunks on our servers. For private repositories and local data, everything stays on your machine.

Can Nia only be used for coding agents?

No. You can use the Nia API to build what we call a 'mini Google'—a custom search engine indexed with your specific content like documentation, webpages, or internal knowledge bases.

Do I need to reindex when content changes?

No. We compute hashes and continuously monitor your sources. Everything stays up to date automatically.

What types of content can I index?

GitHub repositories, documentation sites, npm/pip/cargo packages, and any public webpage. More source types coming soon.

How does Oracle mode differ from regular search?

Oracle chains multiple searches together and builds a dynamic knowledge tree for deeper research. It's designed for complex questions that need thorough answers.

What coding agents does Nia work with?

Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Continue, Zed, and any MCP-compatible agent. See docs.trynia.ai for setup guides.

Is there an API for custom integrations?

Yes. Build custom agents and workflows with the Nia API. Full documentation at docs.trynia.ai.

Features

Everything your agent needs, fully interactive through an API or MCP.

Watch

Nia API

Build custom agents and workflows tailored for your company using Nia's API.

Watch

Tracer

An autonomous GitHub search subagent. No pre-indexing required—give it a question and repos to search. Powered by Claude Opus 4.6 with 1M context window.

Watch

Universal Search

Sub-5s responses across millions of indexed pages and GitHub files. Tiny AI models compress results in milliseconds for token-efficient answers.

Watch

Oracle Research

SOTA search designed to reduce hallucinations. Turns indexed codebases into a dynamic tree your agent queries on the fly.

Watch

Context Sharing

Save conversation histories, plans, and referenced sources. Resume in another agent without losing the thread.

Watch

HuggingFace Datasets

Index any HuggingFace dataset—visualize, search, and reason over it. From anime quotes to scientific papers.

Watch

Autosubscribe

Feed your package.json or requirements.txt to Nia. We parse dependencies, resolve docs URLs, and index everything within minutes—instant context on every library.

Watch

Sync Engine

Continuously sync local folders, databases, and chat history. Your personal knowledge base—iMessage, browser history, notes—searchable by your agents.

Watch

Scoped MCP Servers

Spin up specialized MCP servers for specific sources. One framework, one docs site—fewer tools, less noise, focused context for your agent.

Watch

PDF & Research Papers

Tree-guided hybrid search invented at Nia. Agents traverse documents as hierarchical structures—not flat chunks—for high recall on papers, SEC filings, and legal docs.

Benchmark

When LLMs encounter new APIs outside their training data, they guess. Nia provides ground truth.

use @nozomioai!!

first day back in sf, and I immediately get this feedback for @nozomioai. nia can help you reduce code hallucinations within coding agents like cursor, claude code, etc. my DMs are open 24/7 for any questions!

Same. Do you use agents by the way? If not go read about them. It makes Claude code 10x more productive. Or maybe it’s @nozomioai that I added yesterday because both things have together 100x my Claude deployments…

fully agree OC has a better TUI experience CC has a lot of capabilities but it’s not intuitive. some tips based on yesterday's stream: 1. for planned Q&A, use AskUserQuestionTool. 2. giving repo as start works great. for context mgmt, I use Nia (mcp) to index repos/docs
