Create an Exa web research agent

Build a research assistant that discovers relevant web sources and organizes them for action.

Workflow outcome

Turn a research question into a source-backed brief with findings, links, confidence, and next steps.

What this agent helps you do

An Exa web research agent helps teams gather evidence quickly without losing source quality. It can search for relevant pages, extract context, and prepare a concise summary of what the sources show.

When to use this workflow

Use it for market research, technical discovery, content briefs, competitor scans, vendor research, or background material before a product decision.

How Exa gives the agent context

Connect the plugin and describe the question, source types, freshness requirements, and exclusions. Ask the agent to report links and explain why each source is relevant.

Example starter prompt

Research this topic using Exa. Find high-quality sources from the last year where possible, summarize the main findings, include links, and flag claims that need stronger verification.

Suggested workflow steps

Define the question, run targeted searches, filter weak results, extract useful passages, and synthesize findings by theme. The agent should preserve source links for review.

Expected handoff

The output should include an executive summary, source table, key findings, open questions, and recommended next action. It can become a Notion doc, Google Drive brief, or task for another LatchLoop agent.
