Overview
Agent: Market Research is an official Dify template built on Dify's Agent node. You enter a company name; the agent searches public web sources and writes a structured report on the company, its products, positioning, competitors, pricing signals, opportunities, risks and suggested next steps, with source references. Before the first run you connect the search tools and let the agent set up its research skill in Build mode. It suits founders and sales or marketing staff preparing for a meeting or a pitch.
One input gives a sourced briefing, and the template shows how Dify's newer Agent node plans its own research steps.

How it works
From the creator's documentation.
| Step | What happens | Data goes to |
|---|---|---|
| 1 · Company name | You type the company you want researched | Dify (cloud or your own) |
| 2 · Web search | The agent searches public sources through the Google and Jina tools | Search services |
| 3 · Analysis | An AI model weighs the evidence and notes facts it could not confirm | Your AI provider |
| 4 · Report | A structured report with risks, opportunities, recommendations and source references | Dify (cloud or your own) |
Good to know
Prepare for a call or pitch by getting a structured overview of a company from public sources. The agent gathers information, notes what it could not find and cites where each finding came from.
Limits
- The report covers only what the search tools can reach on the public web. Open the cited sources for any figure or claim you plan to repeat.
- The Agent node ships without a skill file. You open Build mode and let the agent install it, then check the setup before you publish the workflow.
