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
Market analysis – Understanding market trends, sizing, and competitive landscapes
Competitive analysis – In-depth competitor research and positioning
Academic research – Literature reviews and multi-source academic investigations
Strategic planning – Research to inform business decisions and strategy
Industry trends – Understanding emerging trends and their implications
Use Deep Research when you need thorough, well-documented analysis rather than quick facts or casual conversation. The resulting report with citations can be downloaded as a PDF, saving you hours of manual research and compilation.
