Does it search the open web or just a fixed index?

It searches the live web — Google, Bing, and direct URL fetching. Results reflect current content, not a static snapshot.

Can I ask it to focus on specific domains or exclude others?

Yes — include instructions like 'only use academic sources' or 'exclude Reddit' and GAIA applies those constraints to its search queries.

Are citations included in the output?

Yes. Every factual claim is linked to the source page. Citations appear inline in the response and in a collapsible sources panel.
