What Silico can do

You don't pick tools or modes — you just describe the outcome you want, and the agent uses the right capability automatically. Here's the range of what it can do today.

Research the web, with real sources

Ask anything current and the agent searches the live web, reads multiple sources, and answers with citations. It has two gears:

  • Quick search for fast lookups and ranked links.
  • Deep research for open-ended questions — it synthesizes across many sources into a cited answer.

Citations that end up in your deliverables are checked for dead links before you get them, and any data claims are cross-checked against files you uploaded. "Cited" means verified, not decorative.

Try: "What are the latest developments in solid-state batteries? Summarize with sources."

Build documents and decks

The agent can produce polished, downloadable files:

  • Slide decks (.pptx)
  • Word documents (.docx)
  • Spreadsheets (.xlsx)
  • PDFs (create and extract from)
  • Reports and analyses from data you provide

Try: "Turn this quarterly data into a 10-slide board deck."

Analyze data

Upload a CSV or spreadsheet and ask questions. The agent runs real code in its sandbox to compute answers, find trends, and build charts — then hands you the results and the working files.

Try: "Here's our sales export — what changed month over month, and why?"

Build websites and pages

Describe a site or landing page and the agent generates the HTML/CSS, previewing it live in the conversation. You get the files to download and host wherever you like.

Try: "Build a clean landing page for a newsletter about indie games."

Generate images

Ask for an image and the agent creates it with a real image-generation model and hands you the .png. For charts, diagrams, and text-exact graphics (like a logo with specific wording), it uses precise design tools instead.

Try: "Generate a hero image of a foggy mountain trail at sunrise."

Work with code

Point the agent at code and it can clone repositories, review and refactor, explain a codebase, summarize a pull request, and write new code — running and testing it in the sandbox.

Try: "Clone this repo and summarize how the auth flow works."

Use your own tools

Connect services like Gmail, GitHub, Slack, Stripe, and Notion, and the agent can act in them on your behalf — read data, draft messages, create records — with your approval on anything that writes. See Connect your tools.


A note on how skills work

Behind these capabilities are 40+ specialist skills — built-in playbooks the agent draws on automatically. You never have to browse or select them; when you ask for a deck, the deck skill fires. Think of them as Silico's built-in expertise, applied for you.
