Hi HN

I built *cleverb.ee* to solve my own research pain: too many tabs, too much messy sourcing. Gemini and OpenAI deep research tools weren't getting the balanced/unbiased quality I desired.

*What it does*: • Reads webpages, PDFs, Reddit posts, PubMed abstracts, YouTube transcripts. • Plans with Gemini 2.5 Pro, acts with Gemini 2.5 Flash, summarises with Gemini 2.0 Flash (or you can use any Local LLM or Claude) • Outputs a fact-checked, cited Markdown report with live token usage tracking.

*Tech*: Python + Playwright + LangChain with MCP tool support. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

*Why open source?*: I wanted full transparency at every agent step and easy pluggable data sources.

Quick install:

```bash git clone https://github.com/SureScaleAI/cleverbee cd cleverbee && bash setup.sh

Would love feedback — especially what critical research sources you’d want integrated next!
