AI agent for chief strategy officers
Market Entry Screening Agent
A scored shortlist of markets based on complete data.
What it does
A team picks the next market because a competitor entered it, with a half-page of research. This agent collects market size, regulation, competition and channel data for each candidate market and scores them. It checks for missing data, rescoring after it fills gaps, and writes a shortlist. It keeps the data sources beside each score so the strategist can see where every number came from. When a figure is only an estimate, it is labeled as one. It also tests how stable the ranking is by shifting the weights, so a close call is shown as a close call. Edge case: a market has strong demand but a regulation that blocks the product, so the agent drops it. The strategist approves the shortlist.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
