Researcher

Pulls facts from your data and the open web

The Researcher pulls facts from your uploaded files, your connected data sources, and the open web. It cites where each number came from, so you can trust — and defend — every claim in the deck.

Key capabilities

What Researcher brings to the team.

Searches your files and connected sources
Pulls from uploaded PDFs, slide decks, sheets, drives, and any data warehouse you've connected.
Pulls public data on demand
Reaches market sizing, benchmarks, public filings, and news when the deck needs grounding from the open web.
Surfaces source citations
Every number ships with a citation so you can see — and link to — where it came from.
Flags conflicting numbers across sources
Calls out when two sources disagree, so you choose the right one rather than averaging by accident.

How Researcher works

The step-by-step process Researcher follows on every deck.

1

Receive the Question

Gets a research brief from the Director with what to find and where to look first.

2

Search the Corpus

Searches your files and connected sources before reaching outside.

3

Reach the Open Web

When internal sources fall short, pulls public market data, filings, and news.

4

Hand Off Sourced Facts

Returns facts with citations to the Director and Analyst for the next stage.

Common use cases

How Researcher excels in different scenarios.

1
Market Research Decks
Pulls TAM/SAM/SOM, competitive landscape, and growth projections — all sourced.
