OpenAI is now providing access to its Deep Research tool to all ChatGPT users, including those with free accounts. The company is introducing a "lightweight" version of Deep Research, powered by the o4-mini model, designed to be nearly as intelligent as the original while significantly cheaper to serve. This move aims to democratize access to sophisticated AI reasoning capabilities, allowing a broader audience to benefit from the tool's in-depth analytical capabilities.
The Deep Research feature offers users detailed insights on various topics, from consumer decision-making to educational guidance. The lightweight version available to free users enables in-depth, topic-specific breakdowns without requiring a premium subscription. This expansion means free ChatGPT users will have access to Deep Research, albeit with a limitation of five tasks per month. The tool allows ChatGPT to autonomously browse the web, read, synthesize, and output structured reports, similar to tasks conducted by policy analysts and researchers.
Existing ChatGPT Plus, Team, and Pro users will also see changes. While still having access to the more advanced version of Deep Research, they will now switch to the lightweight version after reaching their initial usage limits. This approach effectively increases monthly usage for paid users by offering additional tasks via the o4-mini-powered tool. The lightweight version preserves core functionalities like multi-step reasoning, real-time browsing, and document parsing, though responses may be slightly shorter while retaining citations and structured logic.
