Artificial intelligence firm OpenAI has launched Deep Research, a new AI-powered agent within ChatGPT that independently conducts in-depth web research, analyzes data, and compiles reports—completing tasks that would take humans hours or even days.
The tool, available now for Pro users, is designed for professionals in finance, science, policy, and engineering, as well as anyone looking for “thorough, precise, and reliable research,” according to OpenAI’s Feb. 2 announcement.
Today we are launching our next agent capable of doing work for you independently—deep research.

The release comes at a time of growing competition in AI research, with China-based DeepSeek flipping the script on AI economics, claiming it can match ChatGPT’s intelligence without the heavyweight price tag.
