Market Research
helio / market-researchGive it the questions you need answered about a market. Your AI teammate researches across public sources, cross-checks claims, and writes a sourced brief — then keeps tracking the space weekly.
What is Market Research?
- ·Starts from your questions, not a generic template: Market size, players, business models, and entry barriers — researched against the specific things you need to know.
- ·Cross-checks before it concludes: The same finding is checked against multiple sources before it's reported as fact, not repeated from a single blog post.
- ·Labels its own confidence: Every finding is tagged multi-source, single-source, or inferred — so you know what to double-check yourself.
- ·Keeps tracking after the brief is written: A weekly pass rechecks key sources and reports only what changed, so the brief doesn't quietly go stale.

Questions
- Does it make up numbers to fill gaps?
- No. Findings without solid support are labeled single-source or inferred rather than stated as fact — if the data isn't confidently there, the brief says so instead of guessing.
- How is this different from just searching myself?
- A search engine hands you links; you still read, cross-check, and organize them yourself. This researches in parallel, cross-checks claims across sources, and structures the result against your specific questions — then keeps tracking after the first brief is done.
- Does the brief go stale after it's written?
- Not if you turn on weekly tracking — it rechecks the same sources and reports only what changed, so you're not the one who has to remember to look again.
- Can it go deeper on one specific finding?
- Yes — ask it to dig into any specific point and it researches further or looks for a primary source, without starting the whole brief over.
