# Surf Follow-up Research Capabilities **Yes, Surf fully supports follow-up research questions to previous analyses.** The platform is designed for continuous, contextual research workflows where you can build upon previous findings. ## How to Reference Previous Research **Best Practice: Reference by Report Title** When posing follow-up questions, reference the specific report title from your previous research. Surf maintains context through: - **Automatic session context** - Within the same chat session, Surf remembers previous questions and answers - **Title-based referencing** - For cross-session or specific report follow-ups, use the exact report title - **Natural language context** - You can also describe the previous research topic and timeframe ## Effective Follow-up Question Formats **Direct Title Reference:** > "Following up on my previous report '[Title of Previous Research]', can you analyze..." **Topic + Timeframe Reference:** > "Building on yesterday's BTC technical analysis, what's changed in the past 24 hours?" **Specific Aspect Follow-up:** > "Regarding the whale movement analysis from my '[Report Title]' research, have there been any new large transfers?" ## Why This Works Surf's architecture maintains research context through: - **Structured report output** - Each research session produces clearly titled, comprehensive reports - **Session persistence** - Context carries within chat sessions automatically - **Title-based retrieval** - Explicit references ensure accurate context recall - **Multi-dimensional memory** - Surf remembers data sources, analysis frameworks, and conclusions ## Pro Tips for Effective Follow-ups 1. **Be specific with titles** - Use the exact title from your previous research report 2. **Reference timeframes** - Include date/time context for time-sensitive analysis 3. **Focus the question** - Ask about specific aspects rather than general "update" requests 4. **Leverage natural flow** - Within the same session, you can simply continue the conversation The platform is optimized for this research workflow, allowing you to drill deeper into topics, track evolving situations, and build comprehensive analysis over multiple sessions.
