You.com's Deep Research Agent 'ARI' Named on TIME's List of The Best Inventions of 2025

Today, TIME revealed its annual list of the Best Inventions, featuring 300 extraordinary innovations

We're thrilled to announce that ARI, You.com’s professional-grade deep research agent, has been recognized as one of TIME's Best Inventions of 2025 in the productivity category.

Launched in beta this February, ARI—which stands for "Advanced Research & Insights"—is the world's first deep research engine capable of processing more than 500 sources and delivering polished, professional-grade PDF reports in minutes.

In head-to-head testing, ARI demonstrated a 76% win rate against competing research platforms and achieved 80% accuracy on the FRAMES benchmark—the highest known performance for any AI model in this evaluation.

TIME recognized ARI for democratizing professional-grade research capabilities that were previously accessible only to enterprises with dedicated analyst teams.
