Solution · By agent
Searching, reading and summarizing to prepare a decision eats a whole afternoon. The agent that does that research never gets tired of reading: it hands you the brief with the sources.
Good research means reading ten sources, keeping what matters, reconciling what contradicts, and leaving it in a summary someone can actually decide with. The problem is that work is done by hand, tab after tab and copy-paste, and every brief eats half a day you don't spend deciding with it. We deploy that work as an agent: it gathers information from the sources you define, synthesizes it into a brief with every data point cited to its origin, and delivers it in the format you already use. We don't sell you a search box; we hand you the research done, with the sources on display so you can check it.
The problem
Research isn't hard; it's slow. And slow, when it repeats every week, eats the time you have to think.
- Preparing a brief on a company, a market or a competitor means opening twenty tabs, skimming them and copying what looks relevant into a document by hand.
- Everyone researches their own way: some cite the source, some don't, and when someone asks "where does this number come from?" nobody can find it.
- Information expires: the report from three months ago is worthless and redoing it costs the same as doing it the first time.
- The urgent eats the important: the team spends its hours gathering and has none left for the analysis, which is what actually adds value.
Cost of staying the same
It shows up on no P&L, but it gets paid: in hours of qualified people acting as human search engines, in decisions made on half the information because there was no time for more, and in the brief that lands late or never lands. The real cost of researching by hand isn't the reading time; it's the analysis that never happens because all the energy went into gathering.
The solution
An agent that gathers, cross-checks and synthesizes information from the sources you define, and delivers the brief with every fact cited to its origin
- 1We set the brief with you: which questions to answer, which sources count (websites, your internal docs, databases, public records) and in what format you want the output.
- 2The agent gathers the information from those sources, discards the irrelevant and reconciles the contradictory, noting where each fact comes from.
- 3It synthesizes the finding into a clear brief —executive summary, detail and sources— in the format and language you already use, ready for a person to validate.
- 4When the brief is recurring, it repeats it on the cadence you set and flags only what changed since last time, without redoing what you already knew.
What changes
What you stop losing
The team stops being a human search engine: gathering and the first summary are done by the agent, and the qualified hours go to analysis and the decision, which is where they pay off.
Mechanism
Every fact in the brief arrives with its source next to it, so the information is checkable and auditable —no relying on the memory of whoever wrote it or a model that improvises.
Mechanism
Recurring research stops being redone from scratch: the agent updates and flags only what changed, so keeping a report alive costs a fraction of creating it.
Mechanism
What we measure: time from brief to delivered output, % of data points with a cited source, number of recurring reports kept current, and hours of manual research that leave the team's calendar.
What we measure
Spec sheet
- Work it removes
- opening dozens of sources by hand, skimming them, copying the relevant bits into a document and doing it all again every time the information expires
- Typical setup
- 2–4 weeks
- Input
- the brief (which questions to answer), the list of valid sources —websites, internal docs, public records— and the brief format you use
- Output
- a brief with executive summary, detail and every fact cited to its source, in your format and language, updatable on a recurring basis
- Works with
- NotionSharePointGoogle DriveConfluenceEmail (Gmail/Outlook)SlackHubSpotSalesforce
- Can connect to
- The web sources and databases you defineYour internal documentation repositoryThe channel and format for delivering the briefYour team's criteria for questions and trustworthy sources
- What we measure
- time from brief to delivered output% of data points with a cited sourcenumber of recurring reports kept currenthours of manual research that leave the calendar
- Good fit for
- teams that produce recurring research —sales, market, competitive, regulatory, due diligence— and want to spend the hours on analysis, not gathering
- Not a fit for
- a one-off query that a single search resolves, or research that requires access to closed paid sources we can't integrate legally
Frequently asked questions
In two things that matter when the answer will carry a decision: the source and the scope. A generic model answers from what it learned in training and, when it doesn't know, improvises with confidence. The agent researches over the sources you define —including your internal docs— in the moment, and cites every fact to its origin so you can check it. It's not "an AI that knows things": it's a research process with traceability.
Yes, and that's usually where it adds the most. We connect it to your knowledge repository (Notion, SharePoint, Drive, Confluence…) with the permissions you set, and from there it answers questions using your own documentation, not just public sources. Access is limited to what you authorize and everything is logged; nothing leaves where it shouldn't.
That's why every fact arrives with its source: verification doesn't rely on faith, it relies on being able to open the link. The agent is built to cite and to say "I don't know" when the source doesn't back it, instead of filling the gap. And a person validates the brief before it's used to decide —the agent does the research, it doesn't make the call.
