SearXNG hosting
A private metasearch engine — and the search backend your agents need.
SearXNG hosting at AIHostBox means a dedicated, single-tenant SearXNG instance on our infrastructure: we install it, pin it to a reviewed release, put it behind TLS on your domain, back it up nightly and keep it patched. Plans start at $5.99 per month and the admin account, the data and any API keys are yours.
SearXNG queries dozens of search engines and returns aggregated results without profiling you, storing your queries or serving ads. As a personal search engine that is reason enough; as infrastructure it is more interesting still, because it gives your AI stack a search API that costs a flat monthly fee instead of per query.
Open WebUI, Perplexica, Dify and most agent frameworks can use a SearXNG instance for web search. Running your own means those searches leave from your instance rather than from a commercial API tied to your account.
SearXNG hosting plans
Every plan is a dedicated single-tenant instance with NVMe storage, nightly off-box backups, TLS and managed patching. Quarterly, semi-annual and annual terms are discounted at checkout. Model tokens are not included — you bring your own key.
