What is Firesearch?
Firesearch is an AI-driven deep research tool developed by the Mendable AI team. Based on Firecrawl's multi-source network content extraction technology, and combined with OpenAI GPT-4o's search planning and content generation capabilities, it breaks down complex queries into multiple sub-questions, performing search and content extraction separately for each. Firesearch supports real-time progress updates, answer validation (confidence level above 0.7), automatic retries, full citations, and contextual memory, helping users efficiently obtain accurate and comprehensive research results. Built on Next.js 15, the tool provides a modern React development experience, making it suitable for users who need to conduct deep network research.
Firesearch's main functions
- Intelligent SearchBreak down complex queries into multiple sub-questions and search them separately.
- Answer verificationTo verify whether the search results truly answer the question, a confidence level of 0.7 or higher is required for them to be considered valid.
- Automatic retryFor unanswered questions, the system will automatically attempt to use alternative search terms, with a maximum of two retries.
- Real-time progress updatesThe search progress is updated in real time, allowing users to stay informed about the current status.
- Full quoteEvery fact is linked to its source, ensuring the traceability of information.
- Contextual memoryFollow-up questions maintain the context of the conversation, facilitating coherent dialogue and further inquiries.
- Content synthesisCombine all search results into a single complete answer and generate follow-up questions.
Firesearch's technical principles
- FirecrawlA multi-source web content extraction tool that extracts content from multiple websites.
- OpenAI GPT-4oUsed in search planning, content generation, and content synthesis to ensure the accuracy and consistency of answers.
- Next.js 15A modern React framework that supports App Router and provides an efficient front-end development experience.
- Configuration and OptimizationUsers can adjust search behavior by modifying the lib/config.ts file, such as setting the maximum number of search queries, the maximum number of sources, and the minimum content length. The system supports various search strategies, such as expanding keywords, narrowing the scope, using synonyms, and rephrasing queries, to improve search results.
