Key takeaways
- OpenAI’s new Deep Research Tool offers an advanced research assistant powered the latest ChatGPT model. It is capable of performing fast, in-depth searches across niche topics. It uncovers hard-to-find data and generates comprehensive reports with citations.
- Deep Research is a follow-up to China’s DeepSeek. This release intensifies competition in the AI space and drives innovation in the industry.
Kevin Weil, CPO at OpenAI, took to LinkedIn to announce the newest agent of the AI giant that allows users to do extensive research on any topic. It’s basically a search engine on steroids.
It’s like having your own personal research assistant, and it’s (unbelievably) good. – Kevin Weil.
This feature is expected to allow you to research complex questions and perform tasks that could’ve taken you anywhere from a few hours to 30 days in a matter of just a few minutes (varying anywhere from 5 minutes to 30 minutes).
How Deep Research Works Deep Research is powered by the most advanced ChatGPT model yet, OpenAI O3, and can search the web independentlyand exhaustively
to find the depths of a niche.
It creates an extensive report with documented outputs, and clear citations that you can refer to in case of questions or curiosity. You can ask for a comparison between two topics or a customized report based on your needs. Kevin Weil said that it is most suitable for researching a specific niche as the program is good at digging up websites and pages that aren’t easily found on the web when scrolling. Deep Research, if it is as good as its claims, could be a game changer for students
SEO experts, medical specialistsor any professional who values depth and detail.
Public Reactions to Deep Research Here’s just one example:
This morning, we used it to brainstorm ideas for AI standards for foundational literacy. We built on the need to identify what a teacher does in each step. It’s great. – A LinkedIn user (19659015) Overall, users were excited to try Deep Research. However, since the feature was just launched, some users experienced factual errorsand lagging. These minor issues should be resolved with time.

How to use it? Select the Deep Research option in the text composer to run the searches within ChatGPT. You can always attach documents and spreadsheets in order to better explain and support your question.
Although the accuracy of AI is not 100%, Deep Research claims that it is better at fact-checking. A quick human check on something important is always a good idea. It’s important to note that the Deep Research feature is currently available on the ChatGPT premium plan .
OpenAI comes out with all guns blazing
This update comes just days after China’s DeepSeek, which shook the foundations of the AI industry by its performance and budget sparked a fierce competition.
OpenAI also launched a special ChatGPT enterprise variant for the US Government just days before. OpenAI seems eager to prove its dominance following the DeepSeek saga.
