Questions
What could cited research be worth to my business?
Our estimate is $50 to $200 a month in time saved, assuming 2 to 4 hours of research avoided. Better win rates may follow, but we cannot promise that.
What tools do I need to back proposals with cited research?
The 3 bots in the stack, plus the tools listed. Each tool may need its own plan.
Can I trust the sources?
Open them. The bots cite where each point comes from so you can check it before a client sees it.
