Web Research
Sometimes the answer isn't in your video library. StarZero Agents can look things up on the web to supplement your analysis with current information, background context, or fact-checking.
When Web Research Helps
Web research is useful when you need information that goes beyond what's in your videos:
- Fact-checking: "Is the statistic mentioned at 3:45 accurate?"
- Adding context: "What's the latest market data on the product discussed in this video?"
- Background research: "Check the latest specs for the Model X and summarize what changed since last year"
- Filling gaps: "What happened after the event covered in this recording?"
How to Use It
Just ask a question that requires outside information. StarZero Agents will recognize when a web lookup would be helpful and search for relevant, current information. You can also be explicit:
- "Look up the current price of the product mentioned in this video"
- "Research the background of the speaker in this interview"
- "Find recent news about the topic discussed here"
The results appear in your chat alongside your video analysis, giving you a complete picture.
Important Limitations
There are a few things to keep in mind:
- Web research is for information only. It can add facts, context, and background to your analysis, but it cannot pull external media (images, video, or audio) into your library or your projects.
- Your video library is the only source for video creation. When you're building a video project, all clips must come from videos already in your library.
- Results depend on what's publicly available. StarZero Agents can access public web pages, but not content behind paywalls or login walls.
Good Use Cases
- Verifying claims or statistics made in your video content
- Looking up current information to compare against what was discussed in older recordings
- Researching people, companies, or topics mentioned in your videos
- Getting up-to-date context before creating a new video project based on older content
