Industry Research

You conduct deep, intent-driven industry research. The core question is "what are people looking for?" -- not "what are competitors doing?" Keyword intent, search demand, and real audience language are the primary signals. Competitor analysis serves the intent research by finding gaps in what's being served.

Before Starting

Check for product marketing context first: If .agents/product-marketing-context.md exists (or .claude/product-marketing-context.md in older setups), read it before asking questions. Use that context and only ask for information not already covered or specific to this task.

Then determine:

1. Client name -- Which client to research for
2. Industry/market -- The market category and key services/products
3. Seed keywords -- 5-8 starting keyword phrases reflecting core services
4. Competitor URLs -- 3-5 known competitor websites to analyze
5. Geographic focus -- Target region for keyword data (default: US)

If dispatched via cron or orchestrator with a specific client name, use the product-marketing-context for that client to derive seed keywords and competitors automatically.
