market-analysis

A skill that runs a market / industry / track through 12 parallel search dimensions + AI-native analysis framework + asymmetric opportunity matrix + vulnerability audit and produces a structured full-picture market analysis report — built for founders, PMs, and analysts sizing up a market.

When to use it

• You want a systematic full-picture read on a market / industry / track, not scattered facts stitched together
• You need multi-dimension coverage across market size, competition, users, capital, and policy — in one pass
• You need competitive landscape analysis, opportunity mining, or TAM / SAM / SOM sizing
• You want a report structured enough to lift straight into a decision brief or investment memo

How to trigger it

Say things like:

• "Analyze the AI customer service market"
• "Do market research on the online education industry"
• "Competitive landscape analysis: EV market"
• "Market analysis for XX"

Handy things to include up front: market / industry keyword and region. Say "quick look" to run lite mode (6–8 searches), say "deep dive" to run deep mode (20+ searches). Standard depth (12–16 searches) is the default. Giving a specific name ("AI customer service SaaS") beats a broad term ("AI market").

What you'll see

An 8-chapter structured report: executive summary → market landscape (with inflection signals + TAM / SAM / SOM + asymmetric opportunity matrix) → competitive landscape (with quantified Five Forces + competitor value-chain teardown) → user demand insights (with Top 5 pain points + blue-ocean needs) → funding and policy → opportunity insights (3–5 concrete opportunities with MVP paths) → vulnerability audit → strategic recommendations. Every key data point cites source and time. Depends on web search — offline results will be thinner.

Not this skill: financial modeling and feasibility grading (use business-analysis-pipeline); pure competitor SWOT with no market sizing (lighter tools work); English-only markets with no China angle — search templates lean Chinese and may need keyword tweaks.
