Key Points

  • The post asks whether there are good “deep research” systems available for local/self-hosted setups.
  • The author says they have SearXNG configured, but it doesn’t retrieve as many Google results as expected, though the returned results are still acceptable.
  • The core interest is the underlying “Deep Research” workflow, which the author believes uses multi-agent summarization with multiple layers of agents.
  • The author is looking for a current local system that can handle that kind of multi-step, agent-based research and synthesis process.

One thing I absolutely love about the paid platforms is the deep research system. Is there a good one on local?

I have SearXNG set up, and it's ok, it doesn't seem to pull back many google results but the resutls it can pull back are ok.

I'm more interested in the system though. It's obvious that it has a multi agent system to summarize, and maybe levels of agents to summarize those agents findings. Is there a great system to handle this sort of stuff on local currently?
