Skip to main content
Deep Research is a self-hosted web app that runs iterative, multi-stage research workflows. It supports OpenAI Compatible providers, so it can run on the ScitiX Model Inference API. Default model here is glm-5.2; see the Models page for the full list and pricing. Deploy it per the official guide (e.g. the xiangfa/deep-research Docker image on port 3000).

Configure

Deep Research has two API Modes: Local (the browser calls the model API directly) and Proxy (the app’s server calls it). Use Proxy for ScitiX. In Local mode the browser calls https://api.scitix.ai/... directly (cross-origin); the ScitiX gateway does not return CORS headers for browser requests, so the call is blocked with error [TypeError]: Failed to fetch. This is a browser CORS limitation, not a key/URL mistake. Proxy mode makes the request from the app’s server (same-origin to the browser), which avoids it. Create an API key on the ScitiX API Keys page and set the server-side environment (Proxy mode reads the key and endpoint from here):
Then in the UI open Settings → Model and set: Deep Research — Proxy mode with the OpenAI Compatible provider and glm-5.2
