Step-DeepResearch is StepFun’s 32B language model post-trained for autonomous information gathering and professional report generation. It internalizes planning, search, reflection, cross-validation, and synthesis through agentic mid-training, supervised fine-tuning, and reinforcement learning. The technical report and reference harness were published on December 24, with application-based API access documented afterward. The model is separately identified as step-dr-1, rather than being only a generic research application. Public model weights and their license are not established by the open-source harness license.
