Mavera Surfaces Used
| Surface | Role |
|---|---|
Mave Agent (POST /mave/chat) | Deep research — competitive landscape, regulations, buyer profiles, GTM strategies |
Mave Threads (POST /mave/chat with thread_id) | Multi-turn follow-up to drill into specific findings |
Chat + response_format | Structure raw research into a standardized market entry brief |
Mave Agent has access to web search, knowledge bases, and real-time news. Every claim is sourced, so you can verify before acting.
What Value Does Mavera Add?
| Value | How |
|---|---|
| Insurance | Research is sourced and verifiable — no hallucinated market data. Multi-turn threads let you challenge claims before committing. |
| Opening new doors | A full market entry brief in hours instead of weeks. Run multiple markets in parallel to compare opportunities. |
| Saving time | One API call kicks off research that would take an analyst days. Structured output feeds directly into planning documents. |
When to Use This
- You’re evaluating whether to enter a new market, vertical, or geography.
- You need a structured brief covering competition, regulation, buyers, and GTM — not a generic summary.
- You want to compare multiple markets side-by-side using the same research framework.
- You’re preparing a board deck or investment memo and need sourced market intelligence.

The Research Framework
Every market entry brief covers five pillars. Mave researches each in a dedicated turn within the same thread, building context as it goes.The Flow
Define the market
Set your target market, geography, and any constraints (budget, timeline, team size). This becomes the context for all research turns.
Research competitive landscape (Turn 1)
Ask Mave to identify key players, market share estimates, positioning, pricing models, and recent funding or M&A activity.
Research regulatory environment (Turn 2)
Within the same thread, ask Mave about compliance requirements, licensing, data privacy regulations, and any pending legislation.
Research buyer personas (Turn 3)
Ask Mave to profile the typical buyer — title, budget authority, pain points, decision criteria, and buying process.
Research go-to-market strategies (Turn 4)
Ask Mave to recommend GTM approaches based on the competitive and regulatory context it already has — channels, partnerships, pricing strategy, launch sequence.
Research risks and barriers (Turn 5)
Ask Mave to identify the top risks: switching costs, incumbent lock-in, regulatory barriers, and timing risks.
Code: Full Market Entry Research Pipeline
Setup
Stage 1 — Mave Research Thread (5 Turns)
Each turn builds on prior context. The thread ID links them so Mave remembers previous findings.Stage 2 — Structure into a Market Entry Brief
Transform the raw research into a standardized JSON schema using Chat withresponse_format.
Stage 3 — Drill-Down Follow-Up (Optional)
If any pillar needs deeper investigation, send follow-up questions in the same thread.Running the Full Pipeline
