What is it?
Deep Research in Gemini is an advanced AI tool that acts as a personal research assistant.
It generates comprehensive, multi-page reports by intelligently browsing hundreds of websites, analysing information, and synthesising it. The tool shows its reasoning and saves users hours of manual research by automating the process of information gathering and synthesis. It’s versatile, useful for everything from academic research to market analysis, and can integrate with Google Docs for enhanced editing and collaboration or simply copy and paste the output as appropriate.
Latest updates
- You can upload PDFs and images directly into Deep Research so your research reports can draw from a combination of public information and details that you provide. You can also link documents from Google Drive.
- Gemini will proactively suggest related resources in your report to deepen your knowledge, like interactive charts, planning simulators, and additional deep dives into relevant topics.
- You can also import, edit, and refine Deep Research reports directly into Canvas before exporting to Docs for further collaboration.
