There's no way to register this as the default search engine in iOS Safari.

Anyone know which iOS browsers give you the freedom to do this?

It doesn't seem possible. Without integration into my devices this seems like a non-starter for me. I don't want an app just for search.
I just made an account with neeva and it seems likt they have their own browser for iOS, quiet likely just a thing wrapper around safari but with their search engine integrated.

It seems to me that if neeva just had an open url to do searches it wouldn't really have a way to track registrations unless there's some complicated process of generating a unique search URL with a token or something...

Firefox for iOS lets you set any search engine you want.
I use Neeva with Firefox on iOS.
Some browsers on iOS (like Chrome and Firefox) will let you configure Neeva to be the default search engine. We also have our own iOS browser app that you can check out as well: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/neeva-browser-search-engine/id....
