Deep Research and Deep Research Max are autonomous AI research agents from Google DeepMind, offered via the Gemini API's Interactions API. They are built on the Gemini 3.1 Pro model, autonomously browse the open web plus private/proprietary data sources (including via Model Context Protocol), and produce multi-step, fully cited reports with native charts and infographics. Deep Research is optimized for low-latency interactive use cases, while Deep Research Max uses extended test-time compute for comprehensive, asynchronous research workflows requiring maximum analytical depth. Both agents are currently in public preview and are exclusively accessible through the Interactions API, not via generate_content.
