Deep Researcher

A six-step research workflow that turns any topic into a structured report with executive summary, cross-validated findings, and sources.

Content & WritingBeginner★ 182⑂ 21AI score 8/10Last updated: May 17, 2026

What it does

  • Forces you to pin down the research question, scope boundaries, depth, and deliverable format before searching.
  • Runs a six-step pipeline: scoping → exploratory sweep → deep dives → cross-referencing → synthesis → final report.
  • Ships a report template (executive summary, introduction, thematic body, analysis, conclusions, sources).
  • Suggests analysis frameworks such as SWOT, compare/contrast, timeline, stakeholder, and gap analysis.
  • Includes a pitfalls list (confirmation bias, single-source dependence, stale data) and a progress checklist.

Who it's for

  • Strategists, marketers, and consultants producing market or competitor research.
  • Engineers and tech leads writing technology comparisons or architecture reviews.
  • Students, researchers, and newsletter writers doing literature reviews and trend roundups.

Examples

  1. "Do deep research on the vertical SaaS billing market" → thematic report on market size, key players, regulation, outlook.
  2. "Deep dive: Postgres vs. ClickHouse for analytics workloads" → benchmark data, cost of ownership, adoption cases with cross-checked sources.
  3. "Build a due-diligence brief on this startup" → team, product, competition, and risks framed with SWOT and stakeholder analysis.
