Research & Implementation
Beginner-friendly research and hands-on guidance
Description
For a specified topic, this Skill produces a focused research report that combines expert judgment with practical execution. It helps beginners understand the problem, compare options, and complete their first hands-on project. The report first defines the research scope, intended audience, and time-sensitivity boundaries. It then reviews mainstream options by cost, barriers to entry, maturity, suitable use cases, and risks, providing a clear, evidence-based recommendation instead of a vague comparison that simply says “each has its pros and cons.” The report also explains the recommended option’s basic principles, capability boundaries, and common pitfalls. For information that may change easily—such as pricing, policies, and versions—it identifies the supporting evidence, validity period, and verification method. When information is insufficient, it clearly points out the gaps rather than making things up. All technical terms are explained in plain language, and key facts are accompanied by verifiable sources or reproducible steps whenever possible. You’ll also receive a beginner-focused, from-scratch implementation guide covering the tools, accounts, budget, and time needed in advance, along with specific actions, decision criteria, and common troubleshooting steps for each stage. After your first hands-on experience, the guide provides 30-day and 90-day progression plans and highlights the steps people are most likely to abandon. It’s suitable for individuals and teams conducting focused research, selecting among options, or putting a plan into practice.

Strategy Research Workshop
Turn a company, industry, or competitor into a research report and PPT deliverable for management presentations and strategic decision-making. The research covers strategic positioning, business models, operational detail, key data, the competitive landscape, supply chains, core strengths, and future capability priorities—alongside industry trends, market size, risks and controversies, and practical competition—to help you understand how the business wins, whether it can scale, and where it should go next. The Skill organizes publicly available research into an evidence trail with dates, data definitions, sources, and credibility notes. It extracts strategy-focused assertions and actionable talking points for presentations. The final deliverable is a complete company case study report with data sources and disclaimers, along with a consulting-style PPT outline and presentation built around a single argument, making complex information easy to explain in about 15 minutes. From the outline to the visual presentation, you can confirm the narrative angle, audience depth, page count, and design style before completing the report and presentation. It is suitable for corporate strategy, investment research, consulting projects, industry analysis, and competitive benchmarking. After completion, you can also explore a specific dimension further, conduct cross-comparisons, adjust the framework or style, or research a new subject.
Competitive Intel Analyst
Start with a broad view to build a persuasive competitor database, then focus the output on the company’s core business and decision-making needs. This elevates competitor research from “case hunting” to a decision basis that can be verified, compared, and acted on. This is not a prompt that merely lists a few competitors and stitches together webpage screenshots, nor one that crams every database detail into a PPT. “Competitive Intel Analyst” is suitable for consumer goods, technology products, software services, healthcare, education, retail, manufacturing, and other industries. It first defines the research scope and builds a multidimensional search framework covering markets, companies, products/services, user value, technology paths, business models, pricing and channels, intellectual property, partners, and evidence sources. It then creates a continuously updateable, deduplicated, traceable competitor database. Finally, based on the company’s core business, intended use cases, and leadership’s decision questions, it selects a small number of highly relevant benchmarks and produces a conclusion-first leadership briefing PPT, opportunity gaps, and an action roadmap. Suitable for: Panoramic scans of new markets or product categories Product planning, technology planning, and annual strategy research Tracking key competitors, patents, suppliers, or partner ecosystems Adding to, cleaning, and updating evidence in existing competitor databases or PPTs Investment, business development, and management decision briefings Condensing large volumes of material into conclusions that leaders can understand and teams can act on Typical deliverables include a complete competitor database, a shortlist of core competitors, a leadership briefing PPT, technology/patent/ecosystem maps (as needed), an opportunity and risk list, 90/180/365-day action roadmaps, and a source index.
STEM PhD Topic Diagnostician
Already have a PhD dissertation topic but unsure whether it is rigorous, innovative, and feasible? This Skill is designed to diagnose existing topics—not randomly generate topics from scratch or merely polish the wording. It breaks down the research subject, core variables, mechanisms, outcome measures, and research boundaries in your topic. Based on the Chinese and English literature, experimental foundation, samples, methods, equipment, timeline, and budget you provide, it assesses the topic’s rigor, novelty, and feasibility, while identifying risks such as “innovation” based only on changing materials, confounded variables, insufficient evidence for the proposed mechanism, an uncontrolled sample matrix, and chapters that cannot build progressively. The final output is a STEM PhD Topic Health Check Report, which clearly recommends whether to: retain the topic with minor adjustments; retain the research subject while strengthening its dimensions; retain the research problem and reconstruct the subject; or stop patching and redesign the topic. It is intended for STEM PhD students in food science, chemistry, materials science, biology, basic medical sciences, environmental science, agriculture, energy, and engineering. It is especially useful for those preparing a proposal defense, revising a topic at an advisor’s request, who have already defended their proposal but lack a clear central thread, or who have existing experiments but are unsure whether they can support an entire PhD dissertation.
