How they use Nebius and Tavily
Linkup runs its Quality Scorer model on Nebius GPUs to choose web pages for its search index. Co-founder and COO Boris also describes embedding workloads, batching, scaling and a reliable fallback route. His interview identifies the GPU deployment as Nebius Cloud and is presented by Nebius as a Token Factory customer account.
Linkup also used Tavily for a SimpleQA benchmark evaluation. It ran the same evaluation script used for its own search API because it could not find published Tavily results. Linkup’s repository identifies Tavily’s advanced search mode and reports an F-score of 0.728, accuracy of 0.726 and average latency of 2.92 seconds.
