Qualia is a research agent built by [Quadrillion Labs](https://quadrillion.io) that runs, creates, and manages notebooks. You interact with it through natural conversation — it writes and executes code, manages experiments, and displays results inline. ## Core features Describe what you want in plain English. Qualia writes the code, runs it, and shows results inline. A Jupyter-compatible environment with code execution, markdown, plots, and a built-in terminal. Organize complex research into a graph of tasks with dependencies and assignments. Track claims and conclusions with provenance back to evidence. ## Research workflow Spawn agents to test multiple hypotheses at once — different models, hyperparameters, or feature sets. Qualia runs unattended for hours and sends updates via Slack when it finds results. Pass variables between tasks in multi-step workflows with the qualia package. ## Tools Integrated shell for running commands. Create research documents that link to your knowledge graph. ## Customization & Settings Configure models, themes, and behavior. Persistent instructions that guide AI behavior. Reusable workflows the AI can invoke. Connect external tools via Model Context Protocol. ## Interface Customize your multi-pane layout. Find content in files and notebooks.
