Turn Web on in the composer’s tools menu and the assistant can search and read pages. Turn Analysis on as well and it can run deep research. New chats have web search on by default.

What it can do

Search returns six results, or ten when analysis is on. Read a page pulls the readable text, up to about 20,000 characters. If a page comes back nearly empty the assistant is told it was blocked or needs JavaScript, rather than silently reporting nothing. Find on a page pulls the passages matching a question out of a long document, which is how it handles a large PDF without reading all of it. Research hands the whole question to a subagent that searches, reads and returns an answer with its sources. Shallow research spends about twelve steps, deep about twice that.

Sources

Any answer built from the web carries a sources button. Opening it lists every page referenced, with its site, title, description and preview image.

Daily limits

On paid plans these also draw from credits at €0.006 a search, €0.003 a page read and €0.05 a deep search. Results are cached for a day, so asking the same thing twice does not cost twice. When a limit is reached the assistant is told to stop searching and report what it already found, rather than failing mid answer.
