A fully local web research assistant that runs any LLM via Ollama or LMStudio to iteratively search the web, summarize findings, identify knowledge gaps, and produce a sourced markdown report. It is built with LangGraph and runs entirely on the user's machine.

Use cases

  • research a topic with a local LLM and get a cited markdown report
  • run deep research without sending data to cloud APIs
  • automate iterative web search and summarization
  • compare local models like DeepSeek R1 on research tasks
  • build a custom deep research agent with LangGraph

When to choose

  • you want private, fully local research using Ollama or LMStudio models
  • you need an open-source, hackable deep research pipeline
  • you want iterative search-reflection loops with source citations

When to avoid

  • you need the highest-quality research from frontier cloud models
  • you lack hardware to run local LLMs
  • you want a polished hosted product rather than a developer tool
