🦁 Deep Research Agent

The autonomous AI research assistant that browses, reads, analyzes, and synthesizes the web for you.

🤯 The Problem: Search is Noisy

When you Google a complex topic like "The impact of quantum computing on cryptography," you get 10 blue links.

• You have to click every link.
• You have to dodge ads and popups.
• You have to read 5,000 words just to find one specific fact.
• It takes hours.

💡 The Solution: Deep Research Agent

This Actor acts like a human research assistant. It does the heavy lifting for you automatically, saving you massive amounts of time:

1. Searches the web using the ad-free Brave Search API.
2. Visits the top websites and reads the full content (scraping text).
3. Synthesizes the massive amount of information using Premium LLMs (GPT-5.1, Claude 4.6 Opus, Gemini 3.1 Pro).
4. Writes a professional, fully cited report delivered in Multiple Formats.

✨ Key Feature: Massive Context Window Because we utilize premium massive-context models like Gemini 3.1 Pro, this actor can read dozens of long articles, PDFs, and technical documentation in a single pass without "forgetting" details.

🚀 Features

🎯 Use Cases

💰 Pricing (Pay Per Event)

This Actor uses a highly predictable Pay-Per-Event (PPE) pricing model. You do not pay for compute unit hours or external API usage—everything is bundled into a simple flat fee per report generated!

• ⚡ Standard Mode: $0.05 per Report (Searches and analyzes the top 5 sources)
• 🕵️ Deep Mode: $0.10 per Report (Searches and deeply analyzes up to 15 sources)

Note: You do not need to configure any API keys or secrets yourself. The pricing above covers the full cost of Brave Search and the Premium LLMs.

📦 Output Example

The Actor produces a Dataset containing the raw data, but the magic happens in the Key-Value Store.

You will receive direct links to download your formatted PDF, DOCX, and a Hosted HTML Report that looks like this:
