AI-Powered Multi-Stage Web Search & Research Suite

This workflow is a modular, cost-effective alternative to Perplexity's API, leveraging free APIs like Google Gemini, DuckDuckGo, and article extraction services. It processes any search query via webhook, transforms it into expert-level searches using AI, performs dual-stage semantic searches with intelligent reranking and query refinement, extracts content from the top six results (three per stage), and generates unbiased, structured reports emulating domain-specific agents.

Key benefits include complete customization at every stage—from query generation to final analysis—allowing users to tailor it for specific needs without vendor lock-in. It saves hours of manual research by automating semantic search, reranking for relevance, and data synthesis, delivering actionable insights in real-time.

Ideal use cases: market research, competitive analysis, content creation, academic studies, or any scenario requiring deep web-sourced intelligence. Pre-configured for free APIs but extensible, with step-by-step setup guides included for seamless deployment in n8n.
