Nelitus yehhh (ID: 0000009585a4abe5) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 08/16/2015 its not the best its ok

David Johnson (ID: 000000c6e4f4c66d) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 09/10/2014 So far it's good. Not quite as useful as their Asana integration. If you need a lot of web research done this would be a great tool. Narrow the topics down to a list and then ask them to aggregate. Much easier than writing screen scraping software! :)
