Workflow

Phase 1: Research

  • Define market boundaries and scope
  • Deep web research for market data, reports, earnings calls
  • Collect data points: market size, growth rates, player revenue, funding
  • Identify 5-10 key competitors with detailed profiles
  • Gather regulatory and macroeconomic data

Phase 2: Analysis

  • Apply each framework to the collected data
  • Cross-reference findings across frameworks
  • Identify convergent themes and contradictions
  • Build scenario models (base, optimistic, pessimistic)
  • Score opportunities by attractiveness and feasibility

Phase 3: Visual Generation

  • Market growth charts and TAM/SAM/SOM diagrams
  • Competitive positioning maps (2x2 quadrants)
  • Porter's Five Forces radar chart
  • Risk heatmaps
  • Industry ecosystem maps

Phase 4: Writing

  • Structured prose in consulting style (not bullets)
  • Every claim backed by data with source citation
  • Key insight callout boxes throughout
  • Executive summary written last (distilled from findings)

Phase 5: Compilation

  • LaTeX formatting with custom style package
  • Table of contents, bibliography, appendices
  • PDF generation via LaTeX compiler

Output Format

Professional LaTeX with custom environments:

  • Key Insight boxes — highlighted findings
  • Market Data callouts — statistics with source
  • Risk boxes — threats with severity rating
  • Recommendation boxes — prioritized actions
  • SWOT boxes — four-quadrant analysis
  • Porter's Five Forces boxes — force-by-force assessment
  • Pull quotes — notable expert opinions
  • Stat boxes — large-format key numbers

Quality Standards

  1. Every claim needs a source. No unsourced statistics.
  2. Recency matters. Prefer data from the last 2 years.
  3. Triangulate. Cross-reference market sizes across 3+ sources.
  4. Acknowledge uncertainty. Use ranges, not false precision.
  5. Actionable recommendations. Each recommendation has: what, why, how, expected impact.
  6. No filler. Every paragraph must add information or insight.
