Field notes
The homepage shows a caffeine query routed to Perplexity and Exa, alongside result cards labeled with their source provider; the relationship between those labels is unclear in the extract. A separate comparison view lists latency and source counts. Setup examples cover Claude Code’s MCP command, a generic MCP configuration, and a curl request. Grounder says it charges nothing per query during early access, while provider calls use the visitor’s own keys.
