Google’s Deep Research Feature Now Available on Android
What is Deep Research?
The web is filled with resources, making it possible to find all the answers you need in one place. However, this abundance of information can also make finding exactly what you need a long and overwhelming process. Google’s Deep Research offering aims to help you manage that process — and it’s now rolling out on Android.
How Does Deep Research Work?
Deep Research is an agentic feature for Gemini Advanced that can conduct thorough research on your behalf. Since its launch, the experience has been live for all Gemini Advanced users on the desktop and mobile web. As of this week, Deep Research is also rolling out to the free Gemini Android app. To use the AI agent, select "1.5 pro with Deep Research" from the drop-down menu in the app.
Using Deep Research
With Deep Research, you can pose a question about the topic you want to learn more about. The agentic feature will create a multi-step research plan, which you can approve or disapprove. If the plan is approved, it will browse the web for you for a few minutes. The Deep Research process mimics what humans do when engaging in research processes, such as browsing the web, making new searches with their findings, and continuing the process multiple times until it has collected sufficient information to answer your question.
Benefits of Deep Research
The findings are then used to create a comprehensive report, organized with links to the original sources so that you can dive deeper into a particular area of interest. That report can be refined with follow-up questions, and — once you’re happy with the results — can be exported into Google Docs.
Gemini Advanced Plan
Gemini Advanced is part of the Google One AI Premium plan, costing users $20 per month. Other perks of the plan include 2TB of storage, Google Photos editing features, 10% back in Google Store rewards, Google Meet premium video calling features, and Gemini for Workspace. Google also offers users a two-month free trial as part of the new plan.
Conclusion
Deep Research is a powerful tool that can help you manage the overwhelming process of finding information on the web. With its ability to create comprehensive reports and mimic human research processes, it’s a valuable addition to the Gemini Advanced feature set. Now available on Android, Deep Research is a feature that’s sure to benefit users who need to conduct thorough research on a regular basis.
