Deep Research
Deep Research creates comprehensive, citable reports by conducting strategic web searches and synthesizing findings from multiple sources.
What is Deep Research?
Deep Research tackles complex research projects by intelligently planning multiple strategic web searches across different angles, then synthesizing findings into comprehensive reports with proper citations. It’s designed for when you need thorough investigation rather than quick answers.
When to use Deep Research
Deep Research is particularly powerful for:
- Background research - Comprehensive overviews of topics, companies, or industries
