Not a scheduled report. A research task, on demand.

Founders sit across from strangers all day. A candidate interview at 3pm and you want more than the resume. A podcast guest on Thursday and you need the questions no other host asks. An investor, a prospect, a potential partner, and you need the backstory by lunch.

This ability runs exactly those requests. It works on companies and topics too: name a firm and get who runs them, what they’ve done, and any flags worth knowing.

What it does

• Takes a plain-language brief: “Build a dossier on Acme Capital — who they are, who runs them, deals they’ve closed in California since 2022, and any regulatory flags.”
• Pulls from the sources your team has already connected (watched feeds, dropped-in documents) plus public sources named in the brief (SEC, court dockets, press, corporate records).
• Writes a structured dossier — background, key people, recent activity, notable filings, open questions — cited back to source.
• Delivers it as a single document in the inbox of whoever asked, within the turnaround you specify (usually minutes to an hour).

The reveal

10am: you ask the agent for a brief on the candidate you’re interviewing after lunch. 10:38: a document lands in your inbox with where they came from, the specific thing they shipped that you should ask about, and three questions their resume would never have given you. The work that would’ve taken three hours of Googling is done in 38 minutes of background work while you run your morning.

What it doesn’t do

No opinions. No recommendations. No “should we hire them?” It compiles what’s public and what your team has already captured; the judgment is yours.

Configuration

• Request template: a format your team prefers — bullet-style, narrative, tabular. Reusable across asks.
• Default sources: which public sources the agent should always consult, plus any team-specific document libraries.
• Turnaround SLA: the cap on how long a dossier should take before the agent flags that a request is unusual.

Triggers

On-demand. A teammate opens the agent, describes the task, and the research runs in the background. No cron, no schedule.
