There is an open source AI research agent that does in seconds what takes PhDs hours.

It’s called Feynman.

Type a topic. It searches papers, synthesizes findings, verifies every claim against real sources, and hands you a cited research brief.

Not a chatbot. Not a summary tool.

A full multi-agent research system running from your terminal.

Four agents work automatically:

Researcher pulls evidence from papers, repos, docs, and the web

Reviewer runs simulated peer review with severity-graded feedback

Writer drafts paper-style outputs from your research notes

Verifier checks every citation and kills links

It can also replicate experiments on local or cloud GPUs, audit a paper against its own codebase for claim mismatches, and run recurring research watches on topics you care about.

One install command. Every output source is grounded.

100% Open Source. MIT License.

Hmm, that could be very useful. Thanks

Let us know how you go if you install it.

At the moment it won’t run for me.

(and I have a dog to walk)

I’ve just packed my laptop so it’s a tomorrow problem now.
