Big Changes Under the Hood

This week's updates focus on powerful upgrades we've made to the Brightwave platform with regard to how the system processes the actual work that is done.

These changes should not only result in the highest quality outputs available, but also short research cycles.

Without further ado: 

Parallel Research Agents

Stop waiting for one analysis to finish before the next one starts.

Ask "Compare the revenue growth of Apple, Microsoft, and Google" and Brightwave runs all three research agents simultaneously. Results come back up to 3x faster than sequential processing.

What this means for your workflow: Competitive analysis, multi-company due diligence, and market comparisons happen in the time it used to take to research one company.

Cross-Project Memory

Your preferences and context now persist across projects.

Brightwave retains key information from previous conversations: your preferred output formats, the metrics you care about, the context you've already provided.

No more repeating yourself every time you start a new project.

Start where you left off. Your second project with Brightwave is smarter than your first.

As always, you can proactively add custom instructions as Memories at any time from your settings.

Steer, Retry, and Cancel Running Agents

You're in control, even after you hit enter.

Send guidance to agents mid-task when you realize you need a different angle. Provide additional context you forgot to include the first prompt. Redirect a prompt if you see the research going in a direction you’ve already covered.

If something goes wrong, you get a plain-English explanation—not a cryptic error code. Understand what happened and decide what to do next.

Research is a conversation, not a command.

Revamped Agent UI

A cleaner interface for working with agents.

The new design provides clearer visibility into agent actions: what they're doing, what they've found, and where they are in the process. Improved controls make it easier to trace, interact with, and manage your research workflows.

Transparency means trust. When you can see how Brightwave reaches its conclusions, you can rely on them with confidence.
