Summary

The API previously used for research is being deprecated in favor of Firecrawl's new Deep Research API, which provides AI-powered web exploration to generate detailed insights on any topic by breaking down queries into subtopics, exploring reliable sources, and synthesizing information into a cohesive report with source attribution. This API allows integration into applications to automate research processes and create features like analysis bots and knowledge assistants, offering customizable output formats and tuning for cost and speed. However, it has limitations such as the inability to access paywalled or private content and is in an Alpha state, meaning its features and outputs may change based on user feedback.
