Summary
A developer open sourced a research agent called Hyper Research that turns Claude Code into a deep research tool. It reportedly beat OpenAI, Google, and NVIDIA's deep research systems on a PhD-level benchmark, and it's free for anyone already paying for Claude Code.
Core ideas
- One tool, three giants beaten: Hyper Research outscored OpenAI's Deep Research, Google's Gemini, and NVIDIA's equivalent on the same benchmark that grades AI reports against PhD-level work.
- Dead simple install: You install it with one line, then trigger it by typing slash hyper research plus your question. No extra setup.
- Question gets broken apart: It splits your query into pieces and searches from multiple angles simultaneously instead of running one linear search.
- Contradiction hunting: It actively looks for where sources disagree and digs deeper into those conflicts instead of smoothing over them.
- Built-in adversarial review: Four separate critic passes attack the draft report, tear holes in weak arguments, and force rewrites of the gaps.
- Memory that compounds: Every source it reads gets saved permanently, so each new report builds on everything from past ones and gets sharper over time.
- No added subscription cost: It runs inside Claude Code, a tool people already pay for, so the research firm functionality is free on top of that.
- Replaces paid analyst work: The claim is this matches the kind of report analysts charge $70 an hour to produce.
- Try installing Hyper Research if you already use Claude Code, it's a one line setup.
- Use it for research tasks where source contradictions matter, not just summary generation.
- Let it run repeatedly on related topics to benefit from the compounding saved sources.
- Consider it as a lower cost alternative before paying for a human analyst report.
