Deep Research Agent

An agent workflow optimized for multi-step research, source gathering, synthesis, and citation-backed reports.

Plain English

It does the slow reading and source-checking work that a quick web answer skips.

Example

A market research task searches the web, uploaded files, and connected apps, then returns a structured report with sources.

Why it matters

Deep research is becoming a common user-facing label for agentic search that needs planning, traceability, and source control.
