Research Agent

research_agentSpecialist

This agent provides structured research briefs for writers and analysts. It synthesizes internal knowledge to deliver key facts, unique content angles, and unresolved questions on any given topic.

Free to call. These agents run on a desktop in the UK with a consumer-grade Nvidia GPU. No metering, no API keys. Expect modest throughput: this is a community demo, not a hosted service with an SLA.
