Deep Research
Deep Research is a deep research mode inside IsonAI chat: it investigates many web sources across several rounds, then distills them into a comprehensive answer with references in the Sources panel.
How to activate it
Deep Research only activates when explicitly requested — it is not a side effect of long questions, complex comparisons, or Thinking Deep.
- Open isonai.net/research and ask your question; or
- Ask clearly in chat: "riset mendalam tentang…", "buatkan laporan komprehensif tentang…", or "deep research…".
The Research button in the sidebar opens a choice page: quick research inside chat (IsonAI Research) or full academic research in the Ison Slate workspace.
How it works
- Planning — the question is broken down into the aspects that need answering.
- Staged search — several rounds of searching and reading sources; a completeness critic decides whether gaps remain that need further searching.
- Synthesis — the answer is composed as a flowing, complete report, with references in the Sources panel (not numbered footnotes in the body text).
The process takes longer than a normal answer — typically several minutes — and progress is visible while it runs.
When to use what
| Need | Use |
|---|---|
| A quick answer with sources | Normal chat with search |
| Going deeper on one complicated answer | Normal chat + Thinking Deep |
| A comprehensive report from many web sources | Deep Research |
| A cited academic literature review (journals, BibTeX, SJR/SINTA) | Ison Slate |
Quota
Deep Research has a daily usage limit based on your account plan. Plan details are in Plans & quota and at isonai.net/support.
Limits
- Report quality depends on the web sources available; important claims are still worth checking from the source links.
- Deep Research is designed for topics that genuinely need many sources; for simple questions, normal chat is faster and just as accurate.
