Why this works

Market landscape work is hard because the useful insight is not in one source. This workflow combines search, enrichment, review analysis, and AI synthesis to move from scattered evidence to a structured point of view. It does not replace strategic judgment, but it gives teams a much faster way to see the shape of a market and where they might win.

1

Define the market boundary

45 min

Start by defining what is inside and outside the market. Write the category name, buyer type, core problem, adjacent categories, and exclusions. This prevents the report from becoming a random competitor list.

Output

A clear market definition with inclusion and exclusion rules.

Pro tip

Landscape reports fail when the boundary is fuzzy. If you cannot say who does not belong in the category, the analysis will be weak.

Prompt template
Help me define the boundary for a B2B market landscape report.

Market/category: {{market_category}}
Target buyers: {{target_buyers}}
Core problem: {{core_problem}}
Our company/product: {{our_company_context}}
Adjacent categories: {{adjacent_categories}}

Return:
1. Working market definition
2. What belongs inside the market
3. What should be excluded
4. Adjacent categories to monitor separately
5. Buyer problems that define the category
6. Initial segmentation hypotheses

Strategic output

PDF + executive deck

Decision quality

Source-backed market view
