Have a difficult question ordinary searching hasn’t solved? The Deep Dive is a focused, multi-source investigation of one complex research question. I find relevant information, verify key findings, trace primary sources when available, identify contradictions and weak evidence, and turn the results into a clear written research brief. Good fits include historical and archival questions, funding and opportunity research, hard-to-find resources, documentary or author research, property history, primary-source hunting, fact verification, and other complex information searches. Includes one defined research question, source links/citations, verification, limitations, and findings clearly distinguished as supported, partially supported, plausible but unverified, or not supported by evidence found. Standard delivery: 5 days. Results cannot be guaranteed.

Comprehensive research for complex questions involving multiple sources, conflicting information, difficult-to-locate records, timelines, or evidence that needs to be reconstructed and verified. The Case File goes beyond a standard research brief to organize the findings into a detailed, source-backed report showing what was found, what could be verified, where information conflicts, and what remains unresolved. Best for research problems with multiple moving pieces or a substantial evidence trail. Requests are reviewed for scope before payment.

Already have the claim, screenshot, article, answer, or piece of information? The Verify puts it under the microscope. I’ll trace the claim to its original or strongest available sources, evaluate the quality of the evidence, identify missing context or contradictions, and determine what the available record actually supports. You’ll receive a concise, source-backed assessment including the claim reviewed, key evidence, source-quality analysis, relevant context, citations, and a clear conclusion distinguishing what is verified, unsupported, misleading, disputed, or still uncertain. Ideal for online claims, conflicting information, historical questions, AI-generated answers, screenshots, articles, and research you want independently checked. One claim or tightly related set of claims per order.
