Overview

At a Glance

The AI Research Agent handles the work a database cannot: reading the live web. It searches Google, opens the pages it finds, understands what is on them, and returns the exact fields you asked for.

What you give
  • A Prompt: Plain English. Type / to pull in a column
  • Your Expected Outputs: Name each field you want back
  • Or a Ready-Made Template: Business Owner Finder and others, no prompt to write
How it's billed
  • Usage-Based Credits: Roughly 3 to 25 credits per row at default settings
  • Charged per Run, Not per Result: The agent does the work even when it finds nothing
  • Max Iterations Caps the Spend: Default 7 steps per row, up to 15

How much will it cost you?

The agent bills for the work it does, so this sizes your plan against the top of the range rather than the average.

How credits work, and why this is a range
1,000 credits = $1, so each credit costs a tenth of a cent. Unlike a fixed-price enrichment, the agent bills for what it actually does on each row: every Google search, every page it opens, every block of text it reads. A row it resolves from the first search result is cheap. A row that takes it through five pages is not. On a typical task at default settings that works out to somewhere between 3 and 25 credits per row, and credits are spent even on rows where it finds nothing. Max iterations is the hard ceiling on that: raising it lets the agent dig deeper and raises the top of the range with it, which is what the estimate above reflects. Treat the number as sizing guidance, not a quote. Run a hundred rows first and read your real per-row cost off that. Plan credits renew monthly and reset if unused. Top-up credits never expire.
The Process

How it Works

The agent runs your instruction once per row, on the live web, and writes structured results back into your columns.

Step 1
Tell it what you want
Write the goal in plain English and pull your columns in by typing / and picking the property, for example: visit /Website and find the name and title of the owner. Or pick a ready-made template and skip the prompt entirely.
Step 2
It searches, opens, and reads
For each row the agent runs Google searches, follows the links it finds, and reads the pages. Because it works from meaning rather than fixed selectors, it keeps working when a site's layout changes.
Step 3
Structured fields, not a blob of text
You name the outputs up front, so results come back as real columns you can filter and sort. Every row also gets a confidence score from 0 to 100, and an error message when nothing was found.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about usage-based credits, prompting, and what the agent can reach.

It is usage-based, so you pay for the work rather than a flat rate. On a typical task at default settings a row lands somewhere between 3 and 25 credits. A row the agent resolves from the first search result is cheap. One that takes it through five pages is not. Run a hundred rows first and read your real per-row cost off that before scaling up.
Yes. This is the important difference from the waterfall enrichments, which only bill on success. The agent still ran the searches and read the pages, so those credits are spent. Max iterations is your lever: it caps how many steps the agent can take per row, which caps what a dead end can cost you.
No. Ready-made templates such as the Business Owner Finder work out of the box. Pick one, map your variable, and run. If you want to change what it looks for, you edit the template in plain English rather than rewriting anything technical.
Those enrichments reason over the data already in your collection: summarising, classifying, translating. They cannot reach outside it. The AI Research Agent browses the live web, runs Google searches, and opens pages, so it brings back information your list did not contain.
A traditional scraper follows fixed rules like CSS selectors and breaks the moment a site changes its layout. The agent works from meaning instead, so it can find a founder's name on an About page whether it sits in a heading, a caption, or a paragraph. That also makes it usable across sites that share nothing structurally.
Public web pages, Google Search, and Google News. It can follow the URLs you give it in a column and the ones it finds itself. Sites that need a login are out of reach, and so is anything behind a paywall.
Around 1,000 rows in under 10 minutes on a typical task, plus two or three minutes of setup. Runs happen in the background, so you can keep working while it finishes.
Every row comes back with a confidence score from 0 to 100, and an Error Msg field when something went wrong. Sort on the score and spot-check the low end. It is the same triage habit as domain confidence: accept the high band, review the middle, discard or re-run the bottom.
