Sanity‑check assumptions, document logic and sources, and maintain versioned files in a shared repository. Create simple what‑if tools for BD/Markets (e.g., fee‑tier impacts, program costs, breakeven points).

Research Briefs (Short & Actionable) Produce short research notes on market structure changes, competitor moves, and relevant regulatory updates. Summarize implications for listings, partnerships, and commercial programs in 1–2 executive‑ready slides per topic.
