Research a market
An analyst names a market and gets a report that ties every figure to its source.
- Who it’s for
- Market-research software whose analysts build each report from a paid database and the open web.
- Why it’s hard
- The forecasts worth citing are in Larkfield, a database the team pays for. Trade bodies and forecasters disagree on the market’s size, so the report has to say who said what.
- You get back
-
- The report, in Word and as a PDF
- A spreadsheet of the figures, each with the page it came from
How it runs, in your product’s code
Pine’s AI starts with trade bodies and installers’ sites, noting the page behind each figure. Larkfield shows full reports only to subscribers, so the analyst signs in with the team’s account on the live screen. With the analyst signed in, it reads the heat pump outlook too. Where two sources size the market differently, the report gives both.
