> Search API finds web pages for a query and returns structured results. It is powered by DeepSeek's in-house search engine.

Looks like they've built (or are building) their own index and return cached results. What you do with that information is up to you. If you want to visit the live page, you'd need to find a way around bot detection.

One reason (not the only one!) people use Anubis is to prevent the endless flood of requests from AI companies. If Deepseek scrapes once every few hours, that helps the website owner with the traffic problem while allowing access.

If they don't want to allow access, my guess is that deepseek's search crawler respects robots.txt but I don't know.
