AI Mode API

AI Mode API is a browser extension that transforms Google's AI Mode search experience into a programmable API. Once installed, it creates a local endpoint that lets you send queries from scripts, terminals, or applications and receive structured JSON responses. The responses include the main AI-generated answer, suggested follow-up questions, and the source links that AI Mode references in its responses. This tool essentially bridges the gap between the conversational AI search interface and automated data workflows.

The extension works by running locally in Chromium-based browsers like Chrome, Edge, or Brave, acting as a relay between your applications and Google's AI Mode. What makes it stand out is that it requires no Google account login and doesn't store any of your queries, operating entirely through your local browser instance. It's designed for research and monitoring purposes rather than high-volume production use, with rate limits similar to manual AI Mode usage.

This tool is particularly useful for researchers who need to systematically analyze AI search behavior, marketers tracking how their content appears in AI responses, and developers building applications that leverage AI-powered search data. It provides a straightforward way to understand how Google's AI surfaces information for specific queries and which sources it considers authoritative in different domains.
