Deep Research vs. “regular” ChatGPT
Posted: Thu Mar 27, 2025 6:14 am
Until February, Deep Research was only available to OpenAI Pro+ users for $200/month. Fortunately, this tool, which can extract real-time insights from external sources, is now available to regular users for $20/month , making it a potentially game-changing tool for all kinds of research. This change in affordability opens up new possibilities for smaller businesses, freelancers, and digital marketing enthusiasts . Access to up-to-date data and accurate citations could fundamentally change the way marketers approach SEO analysis , search trends, and content optimization.
As a result, sophisticated analytics and competitive physician data research are no longer the preserve of big players with unlimited budgets . Even smaller agencies or individuals can now benefit from relevant and up-to-date data , allowing them to respond faster to algorithm changes, identify new opportunities, and fine-tune content strategies more effectively .
Deep Research speeds up the process and delivers polished and clear results, saving time and effort while increasing overall quality.
