Research Lab · Plus plan and up

An AI research assistant that cites its sources

Research Lab turns a question into a plan of sub-questions, searches the web for each one and writes a report where claims link back to the pages they came from. When sources disagree, the report says so.

What you can do

  • Break a broad question into a research plan
  • Search the live web, with sites to include or exclude
  • Get a structured report with inline citations and a source list
  • See where sources conflict instead of a falsely confident answer
  • Save reports to a project and revisit past research

How it works

  1. Ask your questionDescribe what you want to know and, if you like, which sites to prefer or avoid.
  2. Review the planResearch Lab splits the question into sub-questions and searches for each.
  3. Read the cited reportFollow any citation to the original page, then save the report to a project.

Good to know

  • Uses real web search, so answers reflect current pages rather than only the model's training.
  • Each report shows its sources so you can check the evidence yourself.
  • Research runs are counted monthly per plan.
