Research Agent

The built-in Research Agent researches the web and delivers a structured answer with sources.

How it works

1. Select the Research mode in the composer.
2. Enter your question and send it.
3. The agent plans a research strategy, searches and reads web pages, and summarizes the findings.

Run trace

You can follow the research steps live in a dedicated view: the plan, web searches, sources read, and the final answer. At the end, the credits consumed are shown.

Research documents

• After a successful run, a research document is saved automatically.
• Documents appear in the sidebar (per project, or under "Recent").
• They are reusable as project knowledge and can be attached as chat context.
• Sources are collected and cited.

Cost

• Affordable research with MiniMax M3 (from about 1 credit).
• Premium research with Claude/GPT (considerably higher).

Billing uses credit hold/settle; only actual usage is charged (capped at the hold). Research requires an active subscription.
