those are just some examples of things i have used it for! when you login, you can fully configure the topics and the data sources that each agent has access to. so you're spot on that it does a pretty good job of navigating the web if you just give it google access. the other sources in addition to google that you can choose to let it access are: News API arXiv Hacker News Financial Markets News

Worth making that clear. Even making the first or second agent say "Google" with a tagline "For any topic at all" would make it clear that this is an option. I signed up and found that the agent is schedulable. That is worth pointing out in the feature list as I can see that being pretty cool for some people. For my case I am more of a one off research. So being able to turn that feature off might be good. You may be in a space where each person like me has wildly different expectations though. Since "Research for you" is a very broad set of expectations. As someone who has played with things like autogpt, my expectations are low. No offence! It is just that getting AI to do this kind of stuff in a general case is pretty hard. At least this year lol! Next year it might be easy.

  really appreciate the feedback. yes, the primary delivery right now is daily e-mail digest, so i'll highlight that better on the site, but sounds like your use case is more ad-hoc which would work nicely with chat. definitely agree re: autogpt... getting it to actually do something was nearly impossible. i've found that by focusing on a more specific outcome, the agent approach works a lot better. with this it's been really cool to see how well it chases down internet rabbit holes to keep acquiring knowledge (well really just tokens) about a specific topic.
