# Deep research and analysis

> Combine Team modes, Workflow steps, grounding, and typed research outputs.

Research, strategy, and investment teams use deep research systems when a question requires several independent investigations and a decision-ready deliverable. Agno combines specialist teams, explicit workflows, parallel execution, knowledge, and typed outputs so each stage and final result can be inspected.

```python theme={null}
from agno.workflow import Parallel, Step, Workflow

# The analyst agents are defined separately. See the investment-team repo
# under Developer Resources for the full set.
investment_workflow = Workflow(
    id="investment-workflow",
    name="Investment Review Pipeline",
    steps=[
        Step(name="Market Assessment", agent=market_analyst),
        Parallel(
            Step(name="Fundamental Analysis", agent=financial_analyst),
            Step(name="Technical Analysis", agent=technical_analyst),
            name="Deep Dive",
        ),
        Step(name="Risk Assessment", agent=risk_officer),
        Step(name="Investment Memo", agent=memo_writer),
        Step(name="Committee Decision", agent=committee_chair),
    ],
)

result = investment_workflow.run("Run a full investment review on NVDA")
# result.content holds the Committee Decision.
# result.step_results holds the output from each outer step.
```

This review has five stages, with fundamental and technical analysis running in parallel. Replace the investment agents and prompt to apply the pattern to another research mandate. Attach a database to the Workflow to keep each run's input, step outputs, and final result.
