Two updates to Asta, our ecosystem of AI agents for science: a one-click handoff from AutoDiscovery to Asta’s data analysis tools, & paper search that evaluates its own results + searches again when they fall short. 🧵
AutoDiscovery explores your datasets & surfaces hypotheses potentially worth further investigation. Meanwhile, DataVoyager is our agent for data-driven discovery & analysis.
When a hypothesis surprises you, the natural next move is to interrogate it—now that's one click.
Click “Explore with Asta” on any AutoDiscovery hypothesis, and DataVoyager opens with your datasets + results already loaded—no re-uploading or re-explaining context needed.
Ask a follow-up question or leave the field blank & DataVoyager will suggest lines of inquiry.
Find papers is Asta's literature search. Its new default mode, Deep search, interprets your query, evaluates whether the results actually answer it, & keeps searching if they don't.
