Flagship Product
CLERK Deep Research
Clerk is Ngentech’s flagship deep research agent — a Distributed Durable Execution Engine that breaks topics into 100+ parallel sub-niches, maintains state for up to a week, and delivers statistical analysis that moves beyond “AI guessing” to actual data science.

Why Clerk is S-Rank
Four Pillars
Durable
Most agents die if the internet flickers. Clerk is backed by Temporal.io — tasks survive server restarts for 1+ weeks.
Deep
100 sub-niches ensure no stone is left unturned. Clerk searches “Web3 + Zero Knowledge Proofs + 2014”, not just “Web3”.
Quantitative
Moves beyond “AI guessing” to data science — calculating answers based on a mass of personally collected data.
Auditable
Full commit history shows how Clerk’s thoughts and odds evolved over the research period.
The Pipeline
From Topic to S-Rank Report
Decomposition
Commander Agent
A topic like “Web3” is broken into 100 specific sub-niches by frontier reasoning models. Output: a Research Map with unique IDs, timeframes, and search parameters.
Distributed Extraction
Worker Agents ×100
100 simultaneous Temporal workflows fan out — each researching one sub-niche with neural search, clean scraping, and schema-enforced extraction of reliability scores, technical claims, and sentiment.
Aggregation & Statistics
Analyst Agent
All results are loaded into DuckDB. Correlation matrices, trend vectors, and predictive “odds” are calculated with deduplication across sub-niches.
Synthesis
Synthesizer Agent
Claude 3.5 compiles the statistics into an S-Rank enterprise research paper — executive summary, citations, visualizations, and predictive odds analysis.
