our verdict
Kinda
the reasoning
An AI research assistant with web search structures findings well and moves fast — but verify every specific claim and statistic, since this is exactly the kind of task where confident-sounding but wrong numbers slip through.
the prompt to rununverified draft
Using Claude with web search enabled, ask for a structured report on your target market: size, key players, recent trends, sourced with citations. Verify every statistic against the actual cited source before using it in a real decision — don't trust numbers at face value.
what you give up
- Access to paid/proprietary industry data sources a research firm subscribes to
- Deep specialist context in niche or highly technical markets
why people still pay
Serious investment or strategy decisions often need data from paid industry sources (Gartner, IBISWorld, etc.) an AI assistant simply can't access, plus a specialist's judgment on what actually matters in a niche market.
