Frequently asked questions
Why not just ChatGPT Deep Research?
ChatGPT Deep Research is great for linear Q&A, but research isn't linear.

It's the difference between having a conversation and building a knowledge graph.
How is this different from Perplexity or other AI search tools?
Search tools give you answers. Spine helps you build understanding. While others optimize for quick responses, we optimize for comprehensive exploration, letting you see connections between ideas, track your research journey, and collaborate with teammates on complex problems.
