When to Use Web Research
Activate web research when you need:
Current market data or statistics
Recent regulatory changes or legal updates
Competitor information
Industry trends and news
Technical specifications for products or standards
Best practices and case studies
Geographic or location-specific information
How to Use Web Research
Step 1: Activate Web Context
Before typing your message, click the "Web" button below the input field. The button highlights in blue when active.
Step 2: Formulate Your Request
Type a clear, specific request. Include:
The topic or subject
Geographic scope if relevant (e.g., "in the Netherlands")
Time frame if relevant (e.g., "regulations updated in 2024")
Specific aspects you're interested in
Example: "Please find the latest legal guidelines regarding fuel tank storage and fuel storage regulations in the Netherlands. Search online for regulations updated in 2024."
Step 3: Send the Request
Click send or press Enter.
Step 4: AI Acknowledgment
The AI acknowledges your request and explains its search strategy.
Step 5: Search Execution
The AI formulates multiple search queries and executes searches. You'll see a loading indicator.
Step 6: Results Display
Search results appear with:
Source title
URL
Description/excerpt
Timestamp (when available)
"View full content" button
Step 7: View Full Content
Click "View full content" on any result to see the complete text in a modal window.
Step 8: AI Synthesis
The AI synthesizes information from multiple sources into a coherent response addressing your question.
Step 9: Follow-Up
Ask follow-up questions to dig deeper. The AI will use already-retrieved information or conduct additional searches as needed.
Best Practices
Be specific in your requests
Specify geography if regulations are location-specific
Indicate time sensitivity ("latest," "2024," "recent")
Review multiple sources by clicking "View full content"
Ask for synthesis: "summarize the key points" or "compare these sources"
