Web research for Data & Research

Summarise sources with citations.

What you can do

  • Start with a clear prompt that includes goals, audience, and constraints.
  • Ask for options first, then pick one to refine.
  • Upload files or images to give context where helpful.
  • Use web search when you need fresh facts or sources.

Sample prompts

Draft a one-paragraph web research for data & research with 3 style options.
Create a step-by-step plan for web research in data & research; include pitfalls and tips.
Review my input and suggest improvements for web research; ask 3 clarifying questions first.
