The report includes multiple standard strategic analysis frameworks: Porter's Five Forces (industry competition analysis), PESTLE (macro-environment analysis), SWOT (strategic situation analysis), BCG Matrix (business portfolio analysis), TAM/SAM/SOM (market sizing), value chain analysis, customer segmentation matrix, risk assessment matrix, opportunity attractiveness matrix, and more.

How do I use research-lookup to integrate data collection?

In Phase 1 of the report generation workflow, use the research-lookup script for deep market data collection, including market size and growth rates, competitor rankings and market shares, industry trends and drivers, regulatory environments, and more. Collected data is saved in the sources/ folder, organized by chapter, to provide a reliable data foundation for subsequent analysis.

What format are the generated reports in?

The report uses the LaTeX typesetting system together with the market_research.sty professional style package to produce PDF documents that meet consulting-firm standards. The report structure includes a cover page, table of contents, list of figures, executive summary, 11 core chapters, 3 appendices, and references. All charts are automatically numbered and included in the table of contents, with cross-references supported to ensure professional compliance.

It is mainly suitable for investment analysts, VC/PE practitioners, corporate strategy teams, management consulting advisors, market research professionals, founders/entrepreneurs (for preparing fundraising materials), and business development planning personnel—any users who need in-depth market analysis and professional reports.

How long does it take to generate the report?

The full report generation workflow typically takes 2–4 hours, including data collection (30–60 minutes), chart generation (20–30 minutes), report writing (60–90 minutes), and compilation review (20–30 minutes). Compared with manually writing a report of comparable quality that would take several days, efficiency improves significantly. The first use may take longer to get familiar with the workflow.
