The Research Co-Pilot

Six research sequences for knowing enough before you walk into a first meeting — and one verification pass so you never repeat an invented fact.

Company brief with every claim labelled KNOWN, LIKELY, or UNKNOWN. Sector pressure scan covering economics, the labour picture, and the vocabulary insiders use. Stakeholder map reasoned from role and incentive. Reading public filings for workforce signal. Questions that earn a second meeting.

The last file is the one that matters: a verification pass that re-audits the output and splits it into "safe to use" and "verify first," ranked by the cost of being wrong.

Built around one problem. Ask a model for a company briefing and it will produce something that reads like a briefing — some of it known, some of it invented, and nothing in the formatting telling you which. A wrong headcount stated confidently to a CFO ends the credibility of everything after it.
