FAQPage Schema
How do I conduct web research with automatic citations for a market analysis report?

Web research with citations automates gathering and synthesizing information from multiple sources to produce market analysis reports. This skill retrieves data via the Tavily API and explicitly cites all sources used in the final synthesis.

What is the difference between mini and pro research models for information synthesis?

The mini model executes quick targeted research, while the pro model conducts in-depth analysis. An auto mode also exists to automatically select the appropriate depth and scope based on the complexity of the requested topic.

Do I need an API key to perform web scraping and current events research?

Yes, you need authentication via a Tavily API key or Tavily MCP OAuth to perform web scraping and retrieve current events. This authentication is required to access the data retrieval API used for gathering source information.

Can I generate a comprehensive industry report with properly cited sources automatically?

Yes, you can generate comprehensive industry reports with properly cited sources automatically. The skill synthesizes data from multiple web sources to provide detailed analysis on topics like electric vehicle trends, ensuring all data points are explicitly referenced.

What's the best way to find current information and synthesize multiple web sources?

The best way to synthesize multiple web sources is using an automated research tool that queries the web and consolidates findings. This skill gathers information from various sources, analyzes the results, and generates a synthesized report with explicit citations.

Why does my automated web research require OAuth authentication?

Automated web research requires OAuth authentication to securely validate your access to the Tavily API. This authentication mechanism ensures authorized data retrieval when the skill queries multiple sources to synthesize information.
