About this agent
Ships in the FieldCamp agent marketplace — the general-purpose analyst for every question the other agents weren't built for.
Every week produces questions that die unanswered because answering means an hour someone doesn't have: which ZIP codes drive our best margins? What's a fair price for hydro-jetting in this market? Did the spring campaign customers stick around? The data exists — in your records, on the web — behind an hour of assembly.
The Research Agent is the hour, on demand. Ask in plain language; it decides what to pull from your FieldCamp records, what to search outside, and how to put them together — and answers with its sources shown. The questions you stopped asking become questions you just ask.

Question
"Best-margin ZIP codes this year?"
Summary
Top margin ZIPs: 89117 (38%), 89134 (35%), 89052 (33%) — driven by maintenance-plan density, not job size. Worst: 89030 at 14%, drive time eats it. Full table with job counts and sources attached.
Answers questions; takes no actions. The safest agent in the library to hand the whole team.
By trade
Same agent, configured to how your vertical actually works.
Equipment-spec lookups mid-job: "what's the refrigerant for this model?" — answered at the curb.
Plant and material sourcing questions hit the web with your job context attached.
Questions, answered
What kinds of questions can it handle?
Anything answerable from your records plus the public web: operational ("average days from estimate to acceptance?"), financial ("margin by job type last quarter?"), market ("going rate for drain camera inspections here?"). It tells you when a question needs data neither source has.
How do I trust the answers?
Every answer shows its work — which records it queried, which sources it read, links included. Treat it like a sharp analyst: check the sources on the answers that drive big decisions.
Can my whole team use it?
Yes — it respects FieldCamp's role permissions, so each person's questions run against what they're allowed to see. Techs ask spec questions; owners ask margin questions.
