This agent focuses on commercial reality:
- Where the margin may disappear
- Whether the route to market is realistic
- What should be tested first
- How to validate demand with the lowest possible cost
Known limitations
- This agent does not replace legal, tax, customs, or regulatory professionals.
- It relies on the information provided by the user.
