Google has launched two new AI research agents, Deep Research and Deep Research Max, available through the Gemini API paid tiers. These agents can now simultaneously search the open web and a company's private files, delivering cited, visualized reports.

• For the first time, AI agents can combine web and private data in a single API call.
• Key organizations involved include Google, FactSet, S&P, and PitchBook.
• The agents are built on Gemini 3.1 Pro and support multimodal inputs, with capabilities like collaborative planning and live streaming of the agent's thinking process.
