Research is the work before the work. Gathering sources, reading and summarizing them, extracting the relevant points, structuring findings into something useful: none of those steps require original judgment, but all of them take time. Describe your research workflow: you'll receive a ready-to-use AI workflow automation. We'll guide you through testing it.

How BYOBot works
All you need to do is document the steps you take when you research something. We'll use your steps to create instructions for AI to take over your research gathering and synthesis tasks from now on.
Walk us through what you do when a research task lands: what sources you look at, what you extract, how you organize findings, and what the output looks like. Plain language, no technical jargon required.
BYOBot turns your description into your agent: a prompt for any AI chat tool, a browser agent script that runs it for you, and a full pipeline ready for a developer.
You receive your agent, ready to use. Start in a chat tool to test the logic, go hands-free with a browser agent, or hand the pipeline spec to a developer to deploy.
Tools used for research workflows
How it works
No setup. No code. Open Claude, paste the prompt, and run your research task: gather and summarize sources, extract key insights from a document, or structure findings into a report. Confirm the output before you use it.
Works with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any LLM: free to startA browser agent prompt that opens your sources (web pages, Google Docs, Notion pages) reads the content, extracts the relevant points, and writes the structured summary into your research document or Notion database.
Works with any AI browser agent toolA full pipeline that monitors sources on a schedule, extracts structured data from new content, synthesises findings across sources, and delivers a formatted research digest to the right place. Complete with deduplication logic and a QA checklist.
Connects to Zapier, Make, n8n, or custom APIsIs BYOBot worth it?
A chat answer dies in the thread. Your agent is a file you own: run it in ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini, drop it into a browser agent, or hand it to your stack, as many times as you like.
No prompt engineering degree required. Describe what you do, the tabs you open, the data you move, and BYOBot asks the questions that turn your knowledge into the spec.
Every build ships with smoke tests and pass, warn, and fail checks for each step. You'll know it ran right, not just that it ran.
Who it's for
BYOBot can help automate research workflows for all of these roles, regardless of your experience or skill level.
What you get
Research automation doesn't replace thinking: it replaces the mechanical work that precedes it. Finding sources, reading them, extracting the relevant points, organizing them into a structure that's useful for the actual analysis. That work is repetitive and time-consuming, but it doesn't require the judgment that makes a researcher valuable. BYOBot maps the gathering and synthesis steps into an automation so the judgment work can start earlier.
The research automation BYOBot builds handles the full pre-analysis loop: source identification, reading and extraction, synthesis across sources, and structured output. The chat prompt takes a topic or a set of sources and outputs a structured summary. The browser agent opens your sources, reads them, and writes the findings into your research document. The pipeline spec is a triggered pipeline that monitors sources on a schedule and maintains a living research document.
Research workflow automation applies across every function that regularly gathers information: product teams researching competitors, analysts synthesising customer feedback, sales teams researching accounts, marketers monitoring industry news, founders tracking their landscape. Whatever the research loop looks like in your role, BYOBot maps the mechanical part into an automation that runs it without you.
