Research

Research agents search, read and summarise sources to answer questions. They are useful for a fast overview, but you should open the cited sources before relying on any claim. Look for clear citations and the ability to export them.

What to look for

• Visible citations for every claim
• Types of sources it can search
• Support for your own documents
• Export and sharing options
