MARKET RESEARCH
Ask a research question, get a sourced Coda answer brief
Triggered by a posted research question, runs targeted Brave searches, cross-checks claims across multiple fresh sources, and drafts a concise.

What it does
Answers a specific market-research question on demand with citations. Given a question (e.g. "What's the current pricing landscape for AI note-takers?"), it decomposes it into focused Brave queries, gathers fresh sources, verifies each key claim appears in more than one independent source, and drafts a tight answer brief in Coda, explicitly flagging where sources disagree.
When to use it
A stakeholder asks a pointed question and you want a defensible, sourced answer rather than an unverified summary. Useful for analysts and ops teams fielding ad-hoc research requests.
How it works
- 1A submitted question (via webhook) triggers the run.
- 2OpenAI decomposes the question into focused search queries.
- 3Brave Search runs each query and collects fresh sources.
- 4A logic step cross-checks each key claim for multi-source support and marks conflicts.
- 5OpenAI drafts a concise answer brief with inline citations and a conflicts note.
- 6The brief is written to Coda and the page link returned.
