Frequently Asked Questions
Is my Exa API key secure?
Yes. We encrypt your API key using AES-256 encryption before storing it. Exa search requests are proxied only when your AI assistant needs them.
How do I get my Exa API key?
Visit dashboard.exa.ai/api-keys, create a new API key, and copy it. Paste it in MCP Hubby's connection form.
Can I disconnect anytime?
Yes. One click in your hub disconnects Exa and deletes your encrypted API key from our database. You can also revoke the API key directly in your Exa dashboard.
What AI tools does this work with?
Any MCP-compatible client: Claude Desktop, Cursor, Continue, and more. One connection works with all.
What can my AI assistant do with Exa?
Your AI can perform neural web searches with content extraction, search for code examples and documentation, find similar content to any URL, extract full text from specific pages, and filter results by domain, date, or content type.
