Autonomous Research Agent
The Autonomous Research Agent is an AI assistant that conducts research on your behalf.Available AI Models
You can change the AI model used by the agent from the model selector in the chat interface. You can pick a single model, but we recommend Snorbe Fast / Snorbe Medium / Snorbe Quality — they automatically route each task to the best-fit model for you.Snorbe Fast / Snorbe Medium / Snorbe Quality (recommended, auto-routing)
| Mode | Best for |
|---|---|
| Snorbe Fast | Trying things out, running large batch research, optimizing for speed and cost |
| Snorbe Medium | Keeping costs down while still getting solid quality. Ideal for everyday research |
| Snorbe Quality | Maximizing output quality for investment decisions, research reports, and critical deliverables |
Per-task routing examples
| Step | Snorbe Fast | Snorbe Medium | Snorbe Quality |
|---|---|---|---|
| Plan creation / final answer / plan decision / plan review | GPT-5.4-mini | Kimi K2.6 | GPT-5.4 |
| Chat routing / browser operation instructions | GPT-5.4-mini | Kimi K2.6 | GPT-5.4 |
| Browser automation (Harness) | Claude Haiku 4.5 | Claude Haiku 4.5 | Claude Sonnet 4.6 |
| X search | Grok 4.1 Fast | Grok 4.1 Fast Reasoning | Grok 4.1 Fast Reasoning |
| Graph extraction (nodes and relations) | GPT-5.4-nano | GPT-5.4-nano | GPT-5.4-mini |
| Keyword extraction / entity description merging | GPT-5.4-nano | GPT-5.4-nano | GPT-5.4-mini |
| Image summarization | GPT-5.4-nano | GPT-5.4-nano | GPT-5.4-mini |
| Long-context compaction summary | Gemini 3 Flash Preview | Gemini 3 Flash Preview | Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview |
Steps where reasoning matters (plan creation, final answer) use stronger models, while lightweight extraction, merge, and summarization steps route to smaller models. Specialized providers are selected per task: Claude for browser automation, Grok for X search, and Gemini for long-context summarization.
Individual model selection
If you want to pin the agent to a single provider model instead of using auto-routing, the following are available:| Provider | Model | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Anthropic | Claude 4.6 Sonnet | Balanced. Fast and accurate for everyday research |
| Anthropic | Claude 4.6 Opus | High precision. Strong for complex research and reasoning. Supports Adaptive Thinking |
| Anthropic | Claude 4.7 Opus | Latest top-tier model. Supports 1M-token long context and Adaptive Thinking |
| Gemini 3.1 Pro | Handles ultra-long contexts effectively. Great for cross-file analysis | |
| OpenAI | GPT-5.4 | Versatile balanced model for a wide range of tasks |
| OpenAI | GPT-5.5 | Latest model. An improved version of GPT-5.4 |
| Fireworks | DeepSeek V4 Flash | Fast inference model |
| xAI | Grok 4 | Strong real-time information processing |
What the Agent Can Do
Web Search
Search the internet for the latest news, research papers, and technical information. Automatically complete cross-source searches that would be difficult to do manually.
Web Scraping
Automatically extract detailed information from pages found through search. Aggregate necessary data from multiple sources.
Knowledge Graph
Organize collected information by relevance and visualize it in graph format. See connections between information at a glance.
Report Generation
Output research results as structured reports. Downloadable in Markdown or PDF format.
How to Use
1. Enter a Topic
Enter the topic you want to research in the chat. For example:- “Next-generation battery technology trends”
- “Drone delivery regulations”
- “Sustainable materials market dynamics”
2. Agent Automatically Starts Research
After entering your topic, the agent automatically creates a research plan and begins web search and information collection.3. Review and Utilize Results
Once research is complete, a knowledge graph and report are generated. You can also ask follow-up questions or dive deeper into specific areas.Real-Time Progress
While the agent is running, you can monitor progress in real-time. All processing steps are displayed transparently, so you can understand how the AI is working.Search Status
Shows which keywords are being searched and how many results have been found.
Referenced Sources
Displays the sources of collected information in real-time. Verify the credibility of information.
Processing Steps
Shows the current stage (search, extraction, organization).
Stopping Research
While research is running, a stop button appears next to the input field. Click it when the direction feels off or when you want to switch to a different instruction. Any information collected so far remains in the Knowledge Graph.Configuring Browsing Behavior
From the settings icon in the chat interface, you can adjust the maximum number of steps the AI takes when browsing websites (1–100). Increase the value for in-depth investigation, or decrease it for a quick overview.Giving Instructions During Browsing
While the agent is automatically browsing websites, you can provide additional instructions or answer questions from the agent in real time. You can interact naturally — for example, “check a different page instead” or “you’ll need to log in here.”Tool Step Limit
You can adjust the maximum number of tool execution steps the agent takes per research session from the settings screen (default is unlimited). When the limit is reached, the agent run stops automatically and a badge notification appears. Use this when you want to control credit consumption or limit how deep the research goes.Verifying Accuracy
If a research result leaves you wondering “is this really accurate?”, you can request verification using the fact-check button. The agent will re-examine the response and show the supporting evidence.Sending Feedback
You can send feedback, bug reports, or feature requests anytime using the feedback button in the sidebar. It reaches the development team directly, right when you notice something.Available Tools
The agent automatically selects and uses the following tools based on the situation.Recall
Search past research results and knowledge graph. No need to repeat the same questions.
Web Search
Search for the latest information on the internet. Covers news, papers, and technical articles.
X Search
Collect the latest trends and real-time information from X (formerly Twitter).
Source Summary
Enter a URL to summarize the page content. Efficiently understand multiple sources.
Browsing
Actually operate websites to collect information. Supports login-required sites and dynamic pages.
Extract Related URLs
Automatically crawl related pages from a specified site. Analyzes sitemaps and link structures.
Academic DB Search
Directly retrieve specialized information from arXiv, PubMed, Semantic Scholar, e-Stat, and other academic and statistical databases.
When you enter complex instructions that span multiple actions (e.g., “Research the latest AI information on social media, then do further web searches and finally summarize in a report”), the agent automatically activates Plan Mode and coordinates multiple tools to conduct research step by step.
Agent Copy and Presets
Copy an Agent to Another Workspace
From the agent sharing dialog, you can copy an agent to a different workspace. You can optionally include execution history and private sources in the copy.Create an Agent from a Preset
When creating a new agent, you can choose from official presets provided by Snorbe. Selecting a preset automatically configures skills and prompts optimized for the intended use case.Comparison with Manual Research
Traditional Manual Research
- Switch between multiple search engines
- Open each page to review content
- Copy and organize information
- Record citations
- Manually create reports
- Takes hours to days
Agent-Based Research
- Simply enter a topic
- Automatically collects relevant information
- Automatically organizes information relationships
- Citations recorded automatically
- Structured reports generated automatically
- Significantly faster than manual research
