# Give an agent web research and context

> Let an agent read the web, and give it your business context so its answers sound like your company.

Turn on web research and an agent can search and read pages before it answers. Business context folds your own company facts into every run, so its answers sound like your company wrote them.

## Turn on web research

<Steps>
  <Step title="Flip the switch">
    In **Tools**, turn on **Web research**. A credit chip appears beside it only when turning it on adds to the cost.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Know what changes">
    A run with web research on can search and read pages before it answers. That takes longer, and can cost more per row than reasoning over what you gave it.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Give it your business context

Business context is one AI profile for the workspace: your company, your ideal customer, your buyer personas, and what marks good timing. An agent can lean on all of it, or point at just one part.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Turn it on">
    In **Tools**, turn on **Business context** to fold your AI business context into every run.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Or point at one part from the prompt">
    Type an @ in the prompt and choose a section, such as **Ideal customer profile**, to reference just that part.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Good to know

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Why is the Business context switch greyed out?">
    Your prompt already references your business context, so the switch is held on. Take the mention out of the prompt to release it.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What sections can a prompt point at with @?">
    **Business context** for the whole profile, or **Company description**, **Ideal customer profile**, **Ideal buyer personas** and **Interest signals** for one part of it.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Does an added MCP server turn on research even with web research off?">
    Yes. An added server routes the run through the same research loop at its own rate. That sits between having no research at all and having web research on.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Where do I edit the actual context text?">
    On the [Business context](/settings/business-context) page, where each section has its own field and helper text.
