contents Large Language Models (LLMs) powered with argentic capabilities are able to do knowledge-intensive tasks without human involvement. A prime example of this tool is Deep research with the capability to browse the web, extract information and generate multi-page reports. In this work, we introduce an evaluation sheet that can be used for assessing the capability of Deep Research tools. In addition, we selected academic survey writing as a use case task and evaluated output reports based on the evaluation sheet we introduced. Our findings show the need to have carefully crafted evaluation standards. The evaluation done on OpenAI`s Deep Search and Google's Deep Search in generating an academic survey showed the huge gap between search engines and standalone Deep Research tools, the shortcoming in representing the targeted area.
