SearXNG's documentation lists no AI answers or chat. Results come from other search engines, and each public SearXNG instance is run by someone else. We read the maker's own pages; we didn't install the app for this check.
Apps change, so SearXNG may add AI features after our check. Report a change · What we count as generative AI
