Current Research Challenges:

• Time-intensive: Researchers spend 15-20 hours manually searching multiple sources
• Information overload: Evaluating relevance and credibility is mentally exhausting
• Inconsistent quality: Manual methods lead to missed information and biased results
• Inefficient iterations: Refining search terms requires starting the process over
• Documentation burden: Tracking sources and creating citations adds significant overhead

The Business Impact: These inefficiencies directly translate to delayed projects, higher labor costs, and missed insights that could drive competitive advantage. For knowledge workers, research tasks consume up to 30% of their productive time.
