How do I find pages similar to a URL?
Short answer: You can exa find similar in Exa by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Exa Exa Find Similar action to a workflow, map its 2 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.
Inputs
The fields this action accepts.
Every field can be mapped from an upstream trigger, AI step, table row, or hard-coded literal.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
URL url | string | Required | URL (required) |
Num Results num_results | string | Optional | Num Results |
Sample request
{"url": "e.g. https://example.com/path","num_results": "{{trigger.num_results}}"}
Returns
{"results": [{"url": "https://x.com","score": 0.9,"title": "T"}]}
Use these fields in downstream nodes for routing, logging, or error handling.

FAQ
Questions about Exa Find Similar.
What does the Exa Find Similar action do in Exa?
Pass a reference URL, get back semantically similar pages. Useful for content discovery ("find articles like this one"), competitive intel ("find similar blog posts to our hero piece"), and LLM grounding ("find related sources before answering").
What inputs does Exa Find Similar require?
Required: URL. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Exa returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Exa returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Exa Find Similar support batch operations?
Run Exa Find Similar inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Exa's rate limits.

Exa Answer
Exa's RAG-as-a-service — pass a question, get back a synthesised answer with source citations. Saves the search + retrieve + LLM-summarise chain by bundling all three server-side. For "agent needs to look something up" workflows.
ActionExa Get Contents
Fetches and cleans the full text of one or more specific URLs. The right path when you already have the URLs (from elsewhere or from Search) and want Exa's text extraction for downstream LLM consumption.
ActionExa Neural Search
Semantic web search — favours content depth and topical relevance over keyword exactness. Returns URLs with titles and summaries. Use include_answer to bundle LLM synthesis, include_raw_content to fetch the cleaned text inline.
