Exa at ICML 2026: Meet us in Seoul, South Korea

Exa is heading to ICML 2026 in Seoul, South Korea. The 43rd International Conference on Machine Learning runs July 6–11 at the COEX Convention & Exhibition Center in Gangnam, with tutorials on July 6, the main conference July 7–9, and workshops July 10–11.
We're building a neural search engine from the ground up – our own embedding models, our own distributed vector database, our own crawling infrastructure, and our own retrieval stack. ICML is the perfect venue to share what we've learned and connect with other researchers pushing the field forward.
What we're presenting
Our team has been working on several research directions that we'll be sharing at the conference:
- Large-scale web embeddings – training embedding models that generalize across the entire web, not just curated benchmarks
- Distributed vector search – our custom vector database designed for web-scale nearest neighbor search with sub-second latency
- Agentic search – how retrieval systems need to evolve when the consumer is an autonomous agent, not a human scanning ten blue links
Come find us
Whether you're working on retrieval, embeddings, large-scale systems, or agent infrastructure – we'd love to chat. We're always looking for talented researchers and engineers who want to work on hard problems at the intersection of search and AI.
You can find us in the exhibitors hall Tuesday July 7th through Thursday the 9th. Stop by our booth to see live demos and chat with the team. Outside of expo hours, look for the Exa crew around COEX.
Sign up here to express your interest and get notified about Exa events at ICML 2026.
About Exa
Exa is a neural search engine built from the ground up. We provide search, contents, and retrieval APIs used by AI companies, agents, and developers worldwide. Our stack spans custom embedding models, a purpose-built distributed vector database, web-scale crawling, and agentic search products like Websets and Deep Search.
We're hiring across San Francisco, Singapore, and Zurich. If building the future of search sounds interesting, come work with us.
See you in Seoul!
