Research Synthesis
Use judgment infrastructure when the inputs are dense, incomplete, contradictory, or spread across notes, papers, interviews, and transcripts.
Use This When
- You need to organize research without compressing away uncertainty.
- You have interviews, documents, meeting notes, papers, or customer feedback in one pile.
- You need to separate evidence, claims, assumptions, interpretations, and open questions.
Recommended Workflow
Use The Briefing Room to make the research legible. Use Ground Truth to challenge the interpretation. Use Test Drive if the research points to a claim that needs evidence before commitment.
Use The Briefing Room on this research dump. Separate what is known, what is claimed, what is assumed, where sources conflict, and what questions remain open.
Example Research Questions
- What do these interviews actually support?
- Where are we over-interpreting the evidence?
- Which claims need verification before we use them in a strategy doc?
- What is the most useful brief a human can think with?
Skills To Use
The Briefing Room for structured synthesis, Ground Truth for interpretation checks, and Test Drive for testing claims that emerge from the research.
