AI agents are everywhere right now, but most still miss one crucial capability. They cannot see what is happening in the real world, so when they lack fresh information, they guess. If you have ever built an agent that depends on live data, you know how frustrating that is. LLMs are incredible at reasoning, but they cannot tell you what happened yesterday.
The Tavily Certification is designed to solve that exact problem. It teaches you how to build agents that search, validate, and explore the web with confidence. You will learn how modern agents gather information, how Tavily Search works behind the scenes, and how to use Extract, Crawl, and Map to explore the web at scale.
Today, we are excited to announce the official Tavily Certification for developers worldwide. Registration is now open. If you want to stand out as an agent builder and stay ahead of where this field is moving, this certification gives you the tools to do exactly that.
Why get Tavily certified
This certification is more than a set of lessons. It is proof that you know how to build real agent workflows that rely on live information instead of static model knowledge.
Here is what being Tavily certified does for you:
- Helps you build your personal brand by giving you a certificate you can share publicly to demonstrate your skills to employers, clients, and the broader developer community
- Demonstrate the ability to build reliable, real-time search–powered agents that avoid hallucination.
- Show end-to-end mastery of modern agent architecture using the full Tavily tool suite.
- Differentiate yourself by proving you can create production-ready agents that leverage external data and advanced web exploration.
If your work touches AI agents, developer tooling, automation, research systems, or data enrichment, this certification gives you a measurable advantage by providing verifiable, real-world agent-building skills employers can immediately recognize.
What you get when you complete the certification
When you complete the certification you receive:
- An official Tavily Certificate
- A chance to earn 5000 Tavily Credits
This mirrors what learners appreciate about other certification ecosystems, while giving you something immediately useful for your work.
What the certification includes
The certification is structured into three modules. Each module teaches a core skill that contributes to a complete agent workflow.
Module 1: How agents search the web
Learn why agents cannot rely on internal reasoning, how keyword and semantic search differ, why hybrid search matters, and how recall, precision, recency, and domain trust shape search quality. You also explore common failure modes and how to avoid them.
Module 2: Using Tavily Search
Learn how the Tavily Search API works and how to configure depth, recency filters, topic controls, domain filters, raw content settings, and result limits. You also pick up cost and performance best practices to build fast, accurate agents.
Module 3: Advanced Tavily Tools
Dive into Extract, Crawl, and Map endpoints. Learn how Extract retrieves clean text, how Crawl explores domains across multiple hops, and how Map reveals a site’s structure. This module shows you how to build large scale research and ingestion workflows beyond basic search.
Why this certification matters in the age of agents
The future of software development is shifting toward autonomous and semi autonomous systems. Agents that can research, validate, and reason with live web results will become the foundation for many products. Static input is not enough anymore.
This certification prepares you for that future by teaching the skills needed to build grounded, trustworthy, and production ready agents. Whether you use LangChain, LangGraph, Strands, CrewAI, or custom tool calling setups, the concepts you learn here apply everywhere.
Start building smarter agents today
You can begin the Tavily Certification today, work through the modules at your own pace, and apply what you learn directly to your agents. By the end, you will know how to design agents that do not guess. They search. They validate. They reason with real web results.
We are so excited for you to get Tavily Certified! 🎉
