Ask anything
Start with an everyday question and choose whether source-backed research is useful.
Local-first AI research assistant
Research answers you can trace back to the evidence.
Ask a question in plain language. When it needs research, RigorBrief helps you inspect exact sources, citations, contrary evidence, and what remains unknown.

A useful answer, with its limits in view.
RigorBrief can answer directly, help explore an idea, or move into bounded research when you want sources behind the conclusion.
Research with sources
Review the bounded sources and exact evidence behind a research brief.
See what disagrees
Inspect contrary signals, uncertainty, and source limitations alongside the finding.
Keep the trail
Open citations and portable reports that retain provenance for later review.
Your workspace stays yours
Local-first by design.
- RigorBrief runs on your machine. Your workspace and research data stay local.
- Gemini is optional. If enabled, its key is configured for your local environment.
- This website is a static product page. It does not host the app, call a backend, or connect to your local workspace.
