The #1 deep research agent
GPT Researcher plans, searches, reads and cites. Ask a question and get a detailed, source-backed report, from the web or your own documents, with any LLM. Fully open source under the Apache 2.0 license.
from gpt_researcher import GPTResearcher
researcher = GPTResearcher(
query="Are solid-state batteries ready for EVs?",
report_type="research_report",
)
await researcher.conduct_research()
report = await researcher.write_report()Built for real research
One agent for quick answers, long reports and everything in between.
Web research
Plans the questions, searches in parallel and reads 20+ sources per report, with a citation for every claim.
Your documents
Research over PDFs, Word, spreadsheets and Markdown, on their own or combined with the web.
Deep research
Explores a topic recursively, branching into sub-questions until the answer is thorough.
Multi-agent teams
LangGraph and AG2 agents that plan, research, review and publish together.
MCP sources
Bring GitHub, databases and your own APIs into research through the Model Context Protocol.
Smart context
Jev keeps only the passages that answer the question: 59% more relevant context than embeddings.
How it works
- 01
Plan
Breaks your question into focused sub-questions.
- 02
Search
Queries the web or your documents for each one, in parallel.
- 03
Filter
Keeps only the passages that answer each sub-question.
- 04
Write
Produces a cited report in Markdown, PDF or Word.
Jev’s context is 59% more relevant than embeddings, at the same cost
GPT Researcher now filters sources with Jev by default, and falls back to local keyword ranking, so no key or embeddings provider is required. Read the benchmark →
