How It Works
1
Define your research question
Be specific about what you want to learn, which sources matter, and what format the output should take.
2
Agent gathers information
The agent searches the web, queries connected integrations (HubSpot, Notion, Google Drive, etc.), and collects relevant data.
3
Analysis and synthesis
Raw data is organized into a structured report with key findings, comparisons, and takeaways.
4
Iterate
Ask follow-up questions, request deeper analysis on specific findings, or ask the agent to compare against additional competitors.
