Q · Short answer
Google Drive is the best research connector for Muse for most people, because your own documents are the most useful research material Muse can reach today. Add Notion for structured notes, Granola for interviews, and Digital Marketing & SEO for market and search research about any business.
Here’s the honest state of research connectors: Muse doesn’t yet have built-in connectors for academic databases, news archives or market-data providers. The best research setup connects your own material — documents, notes and interviews.
For market research specifically, search data is a useful proxy for demand. Digital Marketing & SEO can show what people search for and who ranks for any business’s terms.

Best for: Giving Muse your documents and files
Muse doesn’t yet have dedicated connectors for academic databases or market data, so the best research setup starts with your own material. For most people, that lives in Google Drive.

We found no built-in connectors for academic search, news archives or financial market data.
Meta says Muse can use a browser. Connectors add your own material and specialized data on top of that.
Not one we could confirm. Store papers in Google Drive, Dropbox or Notion so Muse can work from them.
