I’ve been using `Gemini 2.5 Pro Deep Research` extensively.
( To be clear, I’m referring to the Deep Research feature at gemini.google.com/deepresearch , which I access through my `Gemini AI Pro` subscription on one.google.com/ai . )
I’m interested in how this compares with the newer `2.5 Pro Deep Think` offering that runs on the Gemini AI Ultra tier.
For quick look‑ups (i.e., non‑deep‑research queries), I’ve found xAI’s Grok‑4‑Fast ( available at x.com/i/grok ) to be exceptionally fast, precise, and reliable.
Because the $250 per‑month price for Gemini’s deep‑research tier is hard to justify right now, I’ve started experimenting with Parallel AI’s `Deep Research` task ( platform.parallel.ai/play/deep-research ) using the `ultra8x` processor ( see docs.parallel.ai/task‑api/guides/choose-a-processor ). So far, the results look promising.
