# SurfSense: NotebookLM for Open Web Research
SurfSense is the **open-source open web research platform for AI agents**, like NotebookLM but with live data connectors. Your agents research the live web with structured data from **Reddit, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Google Maps, Google Search, and any page on the open web**, through one **REST API** or **MCP server**. Scheduled and event-triggered agents turn what they find into briefs and alerts, and a built-in knowledge base keeps every finding searchable with citations.
