Pricing starts at $25 per 1,000 Standard requests; $35 for Parallel Thinking (low); $60 for Parallel Thinking (high). It's a hosted environment accessed via browser, where teams can delegate implementation, preview changes, and move from prompt to pull request without managing local setup.
Overview
Reka's hosted research agent for multi-step investigation across the web. Developers call the OpenAI-compatible Reka API with the model ID reka-flash-research; Reka manages web-search and analysis tools and returns grounded answers with citations and reasoning steps. The service is powered by a customized, further post-trained Reka Flash 3.1 model rather than a separately reusable foundation model.
Compare Reka Research with other research workbenches and domain agents on model access, curated skills, and workflow coverage.
