The IOD Method
The transparency of the process is the product
Market studies and feasibility analyses built with a proprietary multi-agent method: hundreds of verified sources, delivered in days instead of months, at a fraction of the cost of traditional research.
180+
verified sources per study, cross-checked on every load-bearing claim
Days
instead of the 2–3 months of an equivalent traditional research
~1/4
of the cost of a comparable traditional study
How a study is built
- 01
Decomposition
Your question is broken into 6–10 research dimensions, each assigned to a dedicated research agent working in parallel.
- 02
Adversarial verification
Every load-bearing claim goes through independent, sceptical verifiers who try to tear it apart. What doesn't hold is corrected or discarded — and we say so.
- 03
The gap critic
A dedicated pass lists what the study is missing. We only fill the gaps that would change the decision.
- 04
Decision-ready synthesis
Product matrix, entry-zone ranking, P&L: not a data dump but the three or four syntheses a decision actually rests on.
- 05
Transparent delivery
An interactive site where every data point carries a badge: verified, corrected, estimate, discarded. You see the confidence level of every number.
- 06
Primary data
Wherever possible we go to the source: retail e-commerce APIs for shelf prices, filed financial statements, careers portals, press archives.
The method at work
Market entry
Spain study for an Italian ice-cream multinational (group with €1bn+ revenue)
180+ verified sources, shelf prices pulled directly from Spanish retailers' APIs, 10 years of press and social sentiment by region, entry-zone ranking, per-SKU import P&L. The study surfaced things the client didn't know about its own market.
Feasibility
Restaurant inside a major Northern-Italy museum
Three economic scenarios, full reconstruction of previous managements from filed accounts (11 straight loss-making years), tourism-flow analysis, European benchmark of museum dining. The numbers overturned the initial approach — a stronger strategy is now in development with the owners.
