What it does

Create comprehensive industry and sector landscape reports covering market dynamics, competitive positioning, key players, and thematic trends. Use for client requests, sector initiations, thematic research pieces, or internal knowledge building. Triggers on "sector overview", "industry report", "market landscape", "sector analysis", "industry deep dive", or "thematic research".

  • Purpose: Client report, internal research, pitch material, idea generation
  • Depth: High-level overview (5-10 pages) or deep dive (20-30 pages)
  • Angle: Neutral landscape vs. thematic thesis (e.g., "AI infrastructure buildout")
  • Universe: Public companies only, or include private?

Step 2: Market Overview

  • Historical growth rate (5-year CAGR)
  • Forecast growth rate and key assumptions
