Web search
Use web search to find public URLs for a question, and Exa contents to retrieve the text of a known page. TinyFish serves search; Exa takes over while TinyFish is rate-limited. A useful research task combines both: discover relevant sources, read the strongest ones, and produce a comparison whose claims link back to those sources.
