Department
AI employees for research
Research is reading, comparing and writing it down so others can decide. AI employees for research read the pages and documents you choose, build comparison tables in Google Sheets and write briefs that say what matters and what is still unclear.
Roles in this department
AI research analyst
An AI research analyst reads so your team does not have to read everything. Give it a question and sources, and it returns a structured brief: what matters, what the sources say, what is still unclear.
AI content writer
An AI content writer writes blog posts, product pages and newsletters from your brief and your own material. It researches, drafts, revises on feedback and saves each piece in Files. Nothing goes out until an editor approves it, and what it writes belongs to your company.
AI SDR
A sales development rep's day is one loop: look up the lead, decide if it fits, write the first email, follow up. An AI SDR runs that loop inside your HubSpot and Gmail. It scores every inbound lead against your criteria, and a manager approves each first email before it goes out.
Example workflows
- Research brief: start manually, read the source, write the brief, save it in Files, hand it to the lead.
- Competitor watch: once a week, read competitors' public pages and summarise what changed.
- Pre-call notes: before a sales call, read the prospect's website and write a short background note.
Questions
Can it use paid databases?
If the database has an HTTPS API and you give access, yes. Paying for a new source should be an approval rule.
How do I check its sources?
Ask it to name the source for each point. The work log also shows every page and file it read.
