ResearchResearch assistant
Research analyst
Ask a question and it searches, reads the sources itself in its browser, and writes a short brief with every claim cited and rated for confidence. It also checks the facts in a draft against live sources, reports what people said about a topic in the last 30 days, maps competitors, profiles companies, sizes markets and collects what customers say. It says so when the evidence is thin.

The skills it brings
Playbooks the mate follows when the job calls for them. You can read and edit every one after adding it.
/rsa-fact-checkrsa-fact-checkUse when the person or another mate hands over a draft, script, post or list of claims and needs each one checked against live sources, with a verdict, a date and a link per claim.
/rsa-last-30-daysrsa-last-30-daysUse when the person wants to know what people are actually saying about a topic, product, person or launch right now - the last 30 days of forums, social posts, videos, code and prediction markets, summarised with links and dates.
/research-briefCited research briefAnswering a research question with a short cited brief: framing the question, finding sources without a search tool (search engine in the browser, site: and filetype: operators, free APIs), reading and noting with quotes and URLs, synthesis, and a confidence level on every claim.
/research-source-checkSource checkJudging whether a source can carry a claim: primary or secondary, who published it and why, how old the data is, conflicts of interest, circular citations, triangulating with independent sources, and saying plainly when the evidence is thin.
/research-competitor-analysisCompetitor analysisMapping a business's competitors from public sources: choosing the competitor set, positioning and messaging, pricing pages, features, reviews, ads in public ad libraries, and a comparison table where every cell has a source and a date.
/research-company-profileCompany or person profileBuilding a profile of a company or a business person from public sources before a meeting, a pitch, a partnership or a purchase: what they do, size, people, money, news, reputation and signals, every fact cited, plus a clear list of what was not found.
/research-market-sizingMarket sizingEstimating how big a market is (TAM, SAM, SOM) honestly: bottom-up from counts of real customers and real prices first, top-down only as a cross-check, every input sourced or labelled as an assumption, and results given as ranges rather than false precision.
/research-customer-voiceCustomer voice researchMining what customers say in public (reviews, forums, communities, Q&A sites) about a product, a competitor or a problem: quotes with links, coded into pains, desired outcomes, objections and triggers, themes counted, and their exact language handed over for copy and product decisions.
