FAQPage Schema
How do I gather information and trending topics from Reddit, X, and YouTube at the same time?▼

Multi-source research across Reddit, X (Twitter), YouTube, and the web gathers trending topics and discussions simultaneously. It classifies user intent and queries multiple online sources to provide a comprehensive summary of what's being debated or recommended.

Can I search for social media recommendations and news without manually checking each platform?▼

Social media recommendations and news can be retrieved without manual platform checks. The research process classifies your intent into categories like recommendations or news, then automatically queries Reddit, X, YouTube, and the web to aggregate results.

Do I need to install reddit-cli and brave-cli before gathering information from the web?▼

You do not need to pre-install reddit-cli and brave-cli. The research process supports automatic installation of missing tools like reddit-cli and brave-cli to ensure enhanced data retrieval from web and social media sources.

What is the best way to conduct a deep dive vs a quick overview when researching a topic?▼

The best way to control research depth is through configurable depth settings. The system adjusts research depth based on classified user intent, allowing you to request either quick overviews or comprehensive deep dives into any given topic.

How do I research trending topics for a specific time period like the last 30 days?▼

Research trending topics for specific time periods by specifying your timeframe in the query. The system queries Reddit, X, YouTube, and web sources to gather and summarize the latest discussions, popular tools, and user recommendations within that window.

Are there limitations when using yt-dlp and bird for web search and information gathering?▼

Limitations depend on the availability of dependencies like yt-dlp and bird. While the system queries YouTube and X effectively, missing tools can be installed automatically, but data retrieval depth may vary based on source accessibility and platform API constraints.
