SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Iterative, depth-oriented research is organized into a disciplined seven-phase workflow, enabling teams to go beyond single-pass investigations and produce deeper, more defensible conclusions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • 7-Phase Methodology: Phase 1 Clarify, Phase 2 Draft, Phase 3 Gap Analysis, Phase 4 Targeted Research, Phase 5 Refine, Phase 6 Red Team, Phase 7 Converge.
  • Structured briefs, multi-source synthesis, and explicit quality scoring to manage uncertainty and bias.
  • Use Case: When addressing complex, high-stakes questions with ambiguous evidence and competing sources, this approach ensures thorough exploration and robust conclusions.

Quick Start

Propose a research brief detailing core question, sub-questions, key search terms, expected sections, and completion criteria, and initiate Phase 1

FAQPage Schema
How do I structure multi-phase research to handle conflicting sources and evolving evidence?

Multi-phase research organizes iterative investigations into a disciplined 7-phase workflow. This methodology enforces structured briefs, gap tracking, and adversarial review to manage conflicting sources and produce defensible conclusions.

What is red teaming in cross-domain research and when is it needed?

Red teaming in cross-domain research is an adversarial review phase that challenges findings to manage uncertainty and bias. It is needed when addressing high-stakes, complex questions with ambiguous evidence and competing sources.

How do I conduct gap analysis during a complex research workflow?

Gap analysis is conducted in Phase 3 of the research workflow to identify missing evidence and unresolved sub-questions. It is followed by targeted research and refinement to fill those gaps and improve overall coverage.

What is the best way to improve accuracy and coverage in high-stakes research?

Improving accuracy and coverage in high-stakes research requires a structured methodology with multi-source synthesis and explicit quality scoring. A 7-phase workflow with convergence scoring and red teaming ensures thorough exploration and robust conclusions.

Does deep research require a structured brief before starting the workflow?

Yes, a structured research brief is required before starting the workflow. The brief must detail the core question, sub-questions, key search terms, expected sections, and completion criteria to initiate Phase 1.

When should I not use an iterative research workflow for my analysis?

Iterative research workflows are not suitable for single-pass investigations or simple questions without conflicting sources. The structured 7-phase methodology is designed for high-stakes, cross-domain questions requiring depth-oriented analysis.
