Research agents over new sources

Watch the sources that matter and file what's relevant, summarized.

The problem

Keeping up with a field is a part-time job nobody has time for. New papers, competitor releases, and regulatory updates arrive daily across a dozen feeds.

Most of it is noise. The cost isn't reading — it's deciding what's worth reading, and writing it up for everyone else.

How Actuant runs it

One trigger, a few steps, and an Agent node making the call a static rule can’t — every step recorded so you can see exactly what happened.
