ChatGPT Deep Research

Deep research is OpenAI's next agent that can do work for you independently—you give it a prompt, and ChatGPT will find, analyze, and synthesize hundreds of online sources to create a comprehensive report at the level of a research analyst.

To use deep research, use the Responses API with the model set to o3-deep-research or o4-mini-deep-research. You must include at least one data source: web search, remote MCP servers, or file search with vector stores.
