[ Overview ]

Meet Sonar Deep Research.

Sonar Deep Research is the model you brief rather than chat with. Consultants, agencies and coaches use it to produce the kind of research report that used to eat a week: it goes away, works through the sources, and comes back with the whole thing written up.

Ask for the market landscape before a pitch. Commission a competitor teardown you can put your logo on. Get the background behind a client's positioning, or the due diligence on a partner. It searches, reads, reasons over what it finds, searches again on what it learned, then writes a structured report with the sources attached.

It is the slowest of the Sonar tiers, and that is the entire point: the value is in the loop, not the wait. For a quick sourced answer, Sonar Pro is the faster path. Deep Research comes with HiggsChat alongside every other leading model and image and video generation, on one subscription.
