# Google AI Mode

`GET /v1/web/ai-mode`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://apidirect.io`
- URL: `https://apidirect.io/v1/web/ai-mode`
- Auth: API key in header `X-API-Key`

Send a prompt to Google's AI Mode and receive a structured conversational reply broken into ordered parts (paragraph, heading, list, images) with cited reference links. Each response includes a session_token: pass it on the next call to continue the conversation in context. Each call, including a follow-up, is billed as one request. The same endpoint also accepts POST with a JSON body for prompts that do not fit comfortably in a URL. In the rare case where Google returns no answer, the response is still 200 with an empty reply_parts array.

**Price:** $0.005 per request. **Free tier:** 50 requests/month.

## Query parameters

- `prompt` string, required
- `country` string
- `language` string
