Why we included this project
SurfSense is a self-hostable research platform that pulls live, structured data from Reddit, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Google Search, Maps, and job boards like Indeed, then turns what it finds into briefs and alerts, with everything kept searchable in a knowledge base that cites its sources. The scheduled and event-triggered agents are useful for teams that want to monitor what people are actually saying across the open web instead of reasoning over a static index. The same capabilities are exposed through a REST API and an MCP server, so it can slot into existing agent workflows rather than locking you into a single interface. If you want a NotebookLM-style experience with live web data and self-hosting control, this is a practical place to start.
