Inquisite - The best way to research anything

Hi Product Hunt! 👋 We're thrilled today to launch Inquisite, the unified AI-powered platform for deep research and smart document creation. Inquisite is the most powerful way to research even the most complex topics and build research-backed documents such as research reports, presentations or articles. 💡 The Problem Suppose you want to write a technical presentation comparing the performance of different LLM architectures. Or build a research-backed report on enrollment trends in US higher education. Conducting the research typically involves scrolling through lists of somewhat-relevant links in Google or similar search tool and trying to guess which ones will be worth the time to read. After finally identifying some useful sources, you need to synthesize the right bits of information from each into a document. Building the document then involves constant switching between your word processor, sources scattered across your browser tabs, and perhaps an AI model like ChatGPT thrown in for writing help. It's a clunky, time-consuming process with no guarantee that at the end of the day you've even captured the best information out there. 🎯 Our Solution At the core of Inquisite is a powerful agentic AI research engine, which acts like a trained human research assistant: 1) It determines where to look for information based on your queries 2) It performs an initial wide search for relevant sources 3) It reviews each source to determine relevancy 4) It scores sources based on relevancy and credibility 5) It ranks and selects a final set, and synthesizes them for you Our smart writing interface is built on top of the research engine. It can create first drafts based on its research for you to build on, and assist you in adding and editing content as you write. ✍️ We built Inquisite to solve the challenges we ourselves have faced around research in both the academic and industry worlds. Knowledge workers - researchers, analysts, educators, consultants etc. - spend a lot of time searching for and distilling information to drive decision-making. Our goal with Inquisite is to make it easy to find insights based on credible, trusted sources and then synthesize those insights into documents. We'd love for you to try it (it's free to try) and let us know your feedback!

Looks great! What are examples of trusted sources you use?

How does this differentiate from other AI-powered search engines? (I think this is an awesome tool! I am not an AI-genius so I would love an explanation)
