Your AI shouldn't need a research assistant. It should be one.
No config file on this page. The proof is one page turning readable. A full research run waits until you sign in.
Start with the indexable scene Research and decisions— then browse the other personal scenes below.
Personal scenes without MCP on the page
SmartGate is the intelligence layer between AI and the world. On individual paths we lead with outcomes—Smart Research, Smart Decision, Smart Knowledge, Smart Intelligence—while MCP JSON stays on agent-builder and Docs surfaces. You keep your host model for reasoning; SmartGate shapes search, fetch, dedup, and compression so the brief you paste into chat is evidence, not ad-heavy HTML.
Marketing pages never embed live unsigned search. The honest proof is one public URL cleaned on the homepage, then a signed-in Playground preset for a full research pipe with server-side caps. That keeps fair-use Free and Playground entitlements clear: bursts soft-fail with HTTP 429 instead of pretending the marketing site is a free multi-user research API.
Start with Research and decisions—the indexable benchmark scene—then browse other personal scenes as they pass the thin-content gate. Each scene maps to an official recipe topology the same runtime exposes to builders over Streamable HTTP. We do not invent customer stories or fixed savings percentages here; savings depend on input structure and the ratios you set after sign-in.
When you outgrow personal evaluation, connect Cursor or another MCP host from Dashboard Connect, enable Activity Logs, and read Token Control, Traffic Customs, and Audit features for the same five capabilities in team language.
