More News : Indian-origin former CEO Parag Agrawal has entered the world of artificial intelligence with the launch of a new startup — Deep Research API. Announcing the project through a social media post, Agrawal claimed that the platform surpasses not only humans but also OpenAI’s GPT-5 and other leading AI models in performance.
The announcement has created a buzz across the global tech industry, with many now closely watching Agrawal’s ambitious venture.
According to reports, Agrawal revealed in a LinkedIn post that Deep Research API outperformed humans and all major AI systems across two of the most challenging benchmarks. He added that his company is already handling millions of research queries daily for startups and public enterprises.
Explaining its scope, Agrawal said the platform provides automation capabilities that can execute traditional human workflows faster and with greater accuracy than human-level performance.
The launch comes at a time when the AI market is witnessing rapid growth, with big tech firms investing heavily in next-generation models. Agrawal is no stranger to this field; he previously founded Parallel Web Systems Inc., a Palo Alto-based company focused on automation technologies.
Tech experts believe that if Agrawal’s startup truly rivals GPT-5, it could mark a historic shift in the AI landscape. While excitement around the growing use of AI continues, concerns regarding its limitations and challenges also persist. Agrawal’s move is seen as a signal that the coming years will bring more intense competition, innovation, and disruption in the AI sector.
