Show HN: AI Agents that do research for you
alphainquire.com
My take on an ai-agent powered research service. You configure the topics and the sources, then AI goes and does the research for you and distills the knowledge into bite size chunks.

I would hope something like this can do web requests and basic parsing of information on web pages, so I can send it off to research any topic and have a good chance. Is this the case? Or is it geared towards specific things?
I signed up and found that the agent is schedulable. That is worth pointing out in the feature list as I can see that being pretty cool for some people. For my case I am more of a one off research. So being able to turn that feature off might be good.
You may be in a space where each person like me has wildly different expectations though. Since "Research for you" is a very broad set of expectations. As someone who has played with things like autogpt, my expectations are low. No offence! It is just that getting AI to do this kind of stuff in a general case is pretty hard. At least this year lol! Next year it might be easy.
definitely agree re: autogpt... getting it to actually do something was nearly impossible. i've found that by focusing on a more specific outcome, the agent approach works a lot better. with this it's been really cool to see how well it chases down internet rabbit holes to keep acquiring knowledge (well really just tokens) about a specific topic.
