• Generate 6-10 actionable segments with detailed segment profiles and candidate data from Lean Canvas and JTBD inputs.
• Score segments using five criteria and select a winner with defined tie-breakers.
• Create a Beachhead Persona and KPIs to measure success, and outline a practical go-to-market plan.
• Save results to engram under startup/{startup-name}/mercado/beachhead-market, including the scoring table, justification, persona, and validation plan.
