Quickstart

Sign up, ask a question, get a data-backed answer. Under 5 minutes.

1. Create an account

Go to lomita.io and sign in with Google, GitHub, Apple, or email.

2. Launch an instance

Click New Instance, pick your tier (Standard $640/mo or Pro $990/mo), and complete payment. Your dedicated container provisions automatically — about 3 minutes.

The dashboard shows "Provisioning..." with a spinner. When ready, the status changes to Active.

3. Start researching

You have two options:

Option A: Use the built-in chat (easiest)

Click Explore in the sidebar. Type your question in the chat at the bottom:

Research whether oil prices predict inflation

That's it. The agent team starts working immediately:

  1. Discovery Agent finds relevant data sources
  2. Integration Engineer builds data pipelines
  3. Quant Analyst runs statistical analysis
  4. Research Narrator writes an executive report

Watch the Hypotheses panel on the right — your research appears with a pulsing dot while agents work. When it turns green, yellow, or red, the verdict is in.

Option B: Connect your AI agent (for power users)

Go to Connect in the sidebar. Copy the config for your framework:

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http lomita https://YOUR-INSTANCE-mcp.lomita.io/mcp

Your browser opens for authentication — no API key needed. Then ask:

Research whether consumer sentiment predicts stock market volatility

Claude Desktop: Download the config from the Connect page and import it.

Other frameworks: Any MCP-compatible agent works. Copy the JSON config from the Connect page.

4. Get your report

When research completes:

  • On the Explore page — click "View Report" next to the hypothesis
  • By email — tell the chat: "Deliver this report to [email protected]"
  • To Slack — tell the chat: "Deliver this to our Slack channel" and provide the webhook URL
  • Via your AI agent — deliver(email: "[email protected]")

Reports include: executive summary, key findings with statistics, data sources used, methodology, limitations, and a clear verdict.

5. Keep going

  • Ask follow-up questions with the hypothesis selected
  • Click nodes on the knowledge graph to explore connections
  • Connect your own data sources (CRM, ERP, any API) from the Sources page
  • Set up continuous monitoring: "Monitor this weekly and alert me if anything changes"

No LLM setup required

Lomita includes a bundled AI model for all agent operations. You don't need to bring your own API key — research works immediately after connecting.

Advanced users can optionally override the default model with their own provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Gemini) via the set_provider tool.
