What this agent helps you do
A Google Drive and Exa research dossier agent combines internal source material with fresh external discovery. Google Drive supplies docs, decks, spreadsheets, briefs, and shared files, while Exa finds relevant web sources, technical references, competitor pages, articles, and supporting evidence.
When to use this workflow
Use it before strategy reviews, customer research, vendor diligence, competitive analysis, or project kickoffs where internal knowledge needs to be checked against the outside world.
How Google Drive and Exa give the agent context
Connect both plugins and define the Drive folder plus the external research question. Google Drive should provide internal assumptions and source artifacts; Exa should discover corroborating, contradictory, or missing external evidence. Keep Drive edits approval-based.
Example starter prompt
Review the documents in this Google Drive folder, use Exa to research external evidence for the same topic, and draft a sourced dossier with internal assumptions, external findings, contradictions, evidence gaps, and recommended next actions. Do not modify Drive files without approval.Suggested workflow steps
Start by summarizing the relevant Drive documents and extracting assumptions, decisions, and source links. Have the agent search Exa for external evidence, compare findings with the internal docs, and flag outdated or unsupported claims.
Expected handoff
Ask for a dossier with internal document links, external source links, key findings, contradictions, confidence levels, evidence gaps, and follow-up questions.
