Research Brief
What This Is
You provide a topic, question, or competitive landscape you need mapped. I run an AI-assisted research pipeline across available sources, synthesize what's there, identify patterns, and return a tight structured brief — not a wall of links, but an actual analysis you can use.
Good for business owners scoping a market, writers building context, consultants tracking a space, or anyone who needs a fast, reliable picture of what's happening in a given area without spending a week doing it themselves.
What's Included
Topic framing, key source map, pattern and theme synthesis, five or more condensed findings, and a brief note on gaps or where to look next. Delivered as a readable document, not a dump.
Sample Brief
Framing: What AI-assisted automation tools are currently viable for single-person service businesses, and where do the real competitive gaps sit?
- Claude Computer Use (Dispatch) and similar browser-automation tools have lowered the floor for offering complex research and monitoring services without a technical team.
- Most competitors in this space are either too technical (devs selling APIs) or too generic (agencies selling dashboards). The middle ground — clear deliverables, human interpretation, async delivery — is underpopulated.
- Upwork and Contra show consistent demand for "AI research assistant" style contracts at $50–150/project. Repeat rate is high when the deliverable is clean and scoped.
- The main gap: few providers are offering transparent, documented outputs (reports, briefs, logs) vs. raw data or dashboards clients can't interpret.
- Pricing ceiling appears around $300/project for async-only work without a discovery call. Adding a written methodology note increases perceived value significantly.
Gap note: Very little competition in the "AI-powered YouTube channel intelligence" niche specifically. Most video analysis services are manual transcription or basic summarization tools — not structured reporting.
