Deep research

A researcher on retainer.

Ask for any topic in chat. Sidelong reads what you've already saved, digs across the web, and writes a fully cited report that lands in your library a few minutes later. You keep writing the whole time.

Commission it in chat

Ask, then keep writing.

Tell Sidelong what you're trying to understand and it pins the topic down with you, then gets to work: your library first, then the open web. The run keeps going in the background, even if you close the panel.

01Starts from a sentence, sharpened in chat
02Reads your saves first, then goes wider
03Runs in the background while you draft

Research the science of forgetting what you read

On it. This takes a few minutes; the report lands in your Library.

Report saved to your Library.

The report

Not an answer. A source.

What comes back is a real report: thousands of words, organized into sections, with a summary and key insights riding along like every save, and every claim carrying a numbered citation into a sources list you can follow, save, and reuse. This one is unedited, straight out of Sidelong.

01Thousands of words, plus a summary and key insights
02Every claim cited, with a full sources list
03Connected to what you've already read

After it lands

Research that stays useful.

01Saved, not scrolled pastThe report is an item in your library, not a chat reply you'll never find again.
02Searchable like everything elseIt's indexed alongside your saves, so its findings surface while you write.
03Citable in your draftsQuote it in your writing with citations that trace back to the report.
04Grounded in your readingYour library comes first, the web second, so reports build on what you already know.
