SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Analysts need concise, company‑specific macro and micro trend insights to justify investment theses. Generic industry commentary is useless; this Skill extracts and contextualizes the forces that directly impact a deal.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Scans six trend directions (regulatory, technology, buyer behavior, macro/economic, competitive, social/environmental) and ensures each is evaluated for relevance.
  • Requires upstream deal context (deal‑context.json, value‑chain.json) to produce company‑specific impact statements.
  • Generates a structured JSON table with trend, direction, category, horizon, impact, source, and notes, plus a net assessment summary.
  • Ideal for early‑stage investment analysis, seed to series‑A deals, and any scenario needing a “why now” narrative.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to run the trends‑analyzer skill on the current deal folder to produce a Trends JSON output.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a trends report for early-stage investment analysis?

A trends report for investment analysis requires evaluating regulatory, technology, buyer behavior, macro, competitive, and social forces. This Skill scans all six directions against upstream deal context to produce a structured JSON table with impact assessments and a net assessment summary.

What market intelligence data is needed to evaluate company-specific macro forces?

Evaluating company-specific macro forces requires upstream deal context and value-chain data. You must provide deal-context.json and value-chain.json files so the analysis can extract forces directly impacting the specific deal rather than producing generic industry commentary.

How does trend analysis work for building a seed to Series-A investment thesis?

Trend analysis for a seed to Series-A investment thesis works by scanning six trend directions against provided deal context to articulate the specific forces affecting the deal. It generates a structured JSON table meeting the MI data contract to justify the why-now narrative.

Can I use this market intelligence tool without upstream deal context files?

You cannot use this market intelligence tool without upstream deal context files. The Skill requires deal-context.json and value-chain.json inputs to produce company-specific impact statements rather than generic industry commentary for your investment analysis.

What is the best way to structure trend analysis output for an investment deal?

The best way to structure trend analysis output is a structured JSON table meeting the MI data contract. It should include trend, direction, category, horizon, impact, source, and notes fields, plus a net assessment summary articulating the forces affecting the specific deal.

Does the trends-analyzer Skill support generic industry commentary for market research?
