Overview
Students, analysts and operators use it for quick briefings, comparing options and following citations into primary pages. Paid offerings extend into more capable models, file analysis and deeper research workflows aimed at people who live in the product all day. A free tier covers everyday asking; Pro, Max and Enterprise Pro packages raise limits and collaboration features for heavier research loads. Limitation: free usage throttles advanced models and volume, so multi-hour research days usually need a paid plan. Citations help a lot, but you should still open key sources before relying on any single claim inside a client report.
Key features
- Web-grounded answers with citations
- Conversational research instead of ten open browser tabs
- Free tier plus Pro, Max and Enterprise Pro upgrades
Limitations
Free access limits advanced models and volume; serious daily research typically needs Pro or higher, and citations still require spot-checking.
