Opening excerpt

People search for pages; agents can query the underlying records. The question an agent actually has is rarely ten links. It might need every page that mentions this compound but not that patent, grouped by domain, since March . Scry runs that as a query instead of assembling it from repeated searches and scraped results. Each statement is read-only and runs under a deadline, a memory ceiling and a row cap on what returns; what a relation can answer quickly is on its schema entry.

On Google’s DeepSearchQA, 900 research questions graded exact-set, an agent doing its research through Scry answers 71.8% fully correct on a corpus that is still under half of Common Crawl; Google’s Kaggle leaderboard reports its Gemini Deep Research Agent at 66.1%. Same judge model, same grading prompt, and every question, grade and tool-call transcript is on the DeepSearchQA page .
