Image search, in the same conversation

Bearly chat can now search for images. Ask a visual question on its own, or ask for current web research with examples. When images would help, Bearly puts a compact gallery in the same reply as the answer and its sources. When they would not, it leaves them out.

Ask for the work

You do not have to choose between a text search and an image search before you know what the answer needs. Start with the result you want:

Compare brutalist and mid-century modern desk lamps. Explain the distinguishing features, cite useful sources, and show visual examples of each.

Bearly can search the web for the factual part and run a focused visual query alongside it. The searches happen together, so the gallery does not arrive as a separate detour after the written answer.

The same tool can stay quiet. A request for a current policy, earnings figure, or software release usually needs strong sources, not a row of loosely related pictures. Bearly's instructions default to leaving images out unless seeing concrete examples is useful to the job. You can always ask for them explicitly when the visual evidence matters.

For an image-first request, be specific about what should be visible. Subject, period, location, material, viewpoint, and visual style are more useful than a broad topic. “1970s modular orange sofas photographed in white living rooms” gives the search something concrete to find.

A gallery, not another results page

The gallery stays inside the conversation. It opens with a useful first set and lets you reveal the rest without turning every result into a captioned card. Select an image for a larger preview. From there, you can zoom, copy it, download it, or open the page it came from.

The source remains attached to every result. That matters for context and for rights: finding an image does not grant permission to reuse it. Open the source and check its terms before publishing or distributing the file.

Gallery images load through Bearly rather than connecting your device directly to the image search host. The search host therefore sees Bearly's request, not your device's IP address. If you open the source page, that is a normal visit to the publisher's site and follows its privacy practices.

Carry a result into the next task

Search results begin as web images, not Bearly assets. That distinction keeps the gallery quick, but an image-editing tool needs a durable asset rather than a long temporary URL.

You can handle that in plain language:

Use the third image as a reference. Make a warmer product-photo variation on a plain background.

Bearly takes the selected result, imports it into the chat as an asset, and passes that asset to the image tool. You do not have to copy the URL back into the conversation or download and re-upload the file yourself. The same handoff works when another asset-based tool needs the image.

There is an important limit. During search, Bearly receives titles, source details, dimensions, and image links; it does not inspect every result's pixels before showing the gallery. Ask it to import and analyze a chosen image before relying on small visual details. Search images can also disappear or change at their source, so use another result if a preview is no longer available.

Available in chat

Image Search is available in Bearly chat on the web, desktop, iOS, and Android when Web Search is set to Auto. Each new image search uses Bearly credits. Team administrators can disable Image Search separately while leaving ordinary Web Search available.

Ask for images directly, or ask a normal research question where visual references would make the answer materially clearer.
