Why structured beats a blank chat box

It actually researches

Live-web Agent Research reads full sources instead of guessing from training data.

Every claim is cited

Tap a footnote to see the source — no confident-sounding hallucinations.

Structure, not a blank box

Four quadrants and a TOWS matrix every time — consistent, complete, comparable.

Grounded in the numbers

The Stability Score ties strategy to the balance sheet, not just narrative.

A real deliverable

Export a branded PDF, PPT, or Notion page — ready for clients and decks.

Fits your workflow

Drive it from the API, CLI, or MCP server and wire it into your own tools.

the catch with chatbots ↘
The "Yes-Man" problem

General chatbots tend to agree with you and invent confident-sounding claims with no sources. A structured tool forces real research, attaches a citation to every point, and scores the fundamentals — so your strategy rests on evidence, not vibes.
