Title: Nomad: Autonomous Exploration and Discovery

Abstract:
arXiv:2603.29353v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce Nomad, a system for autonomous data exploration and insight discovery. Given a corpus of documents, databases, or other data sources, users rarely know the full set of questions, hypotheses, or connections that could be explored. As a result, query-driven question answering and prompt-driven deep-research systems remain limited by human framing and often fail to cover the broader insight space. Nomad addresses this problem with an expl
