Webhound's research agent can now write and execute Python code on the fly. When a task calls for computation, data transformation, visualization, or calling an external API, the agent writes a script, runs it in a secure sandbox, and folds the results back into its research—no setup on your end.
What it can do
- •Math and statistics — complex calculations, statistical analysis, financial modeling, unit conversions, anything that shouldn't be done with mental math.
- •Charts and visualizations — generate matplotlib/seaborn charts that appear inline in your session. Bar charts, line graphs, scatter plots, heatmaps, and more.
- •Data transformation — parse, clean, reshape, and analyze structured data with pandas, numpy, and other libraries.
- •API calls — hit external APIs using keys you provide. For example: "use this YouTube API key to find the top 10 most viewed videos about X."
- •File generation — create CSVs, Excel files, or other artifacts that you can download directly from the session.
Where it works
Code execution is available everywhere: reports, datasets, enrichment, and Ask mode. The agent decides when code is the right tool—you don't need to ask for it explicitly, though you can ("calculate this using code" or "make a chart of these numbers").
How it works under the hood
Code runs in a secure, sandboxed cloud environment powered by E2B. Each execution gets its own isolated microVM with common data-science libraries pre-installed (numpy, pandas, matplotlib, scipy, scikit-learn, requests, and more). The sandbox is ephemeral—it's destroyed after each execution—so nothing persists between runs.
Generated files (charts, CSVs, etc.) are automatically uploaded to storage and served as downloadable links or inline images in your session.
Try it out
- •Ask for a report that involves numbers: "Compare the GDP growth rates of the G7 countries over the last decade with a chart."
- •Give it an API key: "Use this API key to pull data from [service] and summarize the results."
- •Ask something computational in Ask mode: "What's the compound annual growth rate if revenue went from $2M to $8.5M over 6 years?"
