What problem does it solve?
You have market findings in notes but no consistent LaTeX styling for insights, risks, and recommendations, so every report looks amateur and takes hours to re-theme.
Who is it for?
Solo consultants and founder-validators shipping scoped market studies or pitch appendices as professional PDFs.
Skip if: Builders who only need slide decks or web landing copy with zero LaTeX pipeline—or those expecting automated market data ingestion.
When should I use this skill?
Use when formatting or generating LaTeX sections for market research reports that should follow the market_research.sty style package.
What do I get? / Deliverables
You produce market_research.sty-aligned LaTeX with correct color tokens and box environments ready to compile into a polished PDF.
- LaTeX fragment or report using prescribed colors and box environments
- Compile-ready structured sections for insights, market data, risks, and recommendations
Recommended Skills
Journey fit
Spans multiple journey phases - primary shelf plus alternate fits below.
Market research report formatting lands in Validate because you are packaging evidence, TAM/SAM framing, and risks into a stakeholder-ready artifact before full build commitment. Scope is the right shelf for turning research notes into a bounded report template with insight, risk, and recommendation callouts—not for live data collection.
Where it fits
Turn early competitor and TAM notes into a consistently styled LaTeX draft before you decide to prototype.
Assemble scoped market, risk, and recommendation sections with the correct colored box environments for a mentor review.
Recompile an updated PDF with the same palette for partners or press who expect a formal research appendix.
How it compares
LaTeX presentation template skill, not a survey platform or live market-intelligence API.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is market-research-reports for?
Indie founders, analysts, and agent builders who compile validate-phase market studies and want repeatable LaTeX styling via market_research.sty.

In Validate scope work when packaging TAM, competitor, and risk sections; in Idea research when drafting a formal report outline; at Launch when refreshing a distribution-ready research PDF for partners.
