How We Built the #1 Deep Research Agent

Building the #1 deep research agent was not about adding more complexity, but about doing less with focus and discipline. In this talk, we share our journey from early experiments to production, the core challenges we faced, how we approached token efficiency and evaluations, and what the next generation of research agents will look like.
