AI Market Research Agent
Market sizing inputs, category trends and structured findings researched and delivered as a report, on request rather than constant alerts.
Good decisions about where to grow need good research, but most teams only get it in bursts, when someone has a free week. This agent researches the markets, categories and trends you name and delivers a structured report on your schedule, with every finding linked to its source. You set the questions, choose up to 25 topics, and decide where the report lands.
- Structured market reports built around the questions you set
- Every finding linked back to its original source
- Change alerts by email or Slack between reports

20–30 working days
Optional maintenance $249/mo
What it is
AI Market Research Agent researches the markets, categories or trends you name and delivers a structured report covering sizing inputs, trend direction and key findings, on the schedule you choose rather than as constant change alerts. Each finding links to the original source, so your team can check it.
Why businesses buy it
Without regular research, plans rest on last year's assumptions and whatever someone read last week. Commissioning a research firm for every question is slow and expensive, and generic subscriptions rarely answer the question you actually asked. This agent keeps a steady flow of sourced findings on the markets you care about, so strategy, marketing and sales conversations start from the same facts. The written scope fixes the number of topics, the report format and the delivery channel before you order, and two trial report cycles are reviewed with you before launch.
Problems this solves
Market sizing questions get answered with guesses in planning meetings
The agent researches the markets or categories you name and gathers sizing inputs from public sources. Each input links to its source, so planners can see where a figure came from.
Bought-in trend reports go stale soon after they are delivered
Reports arrive on the schedule you choose, daily or weekly, rather than as a one-off study. Trend direction and key findings keep pace with what sources are publishing.
A stream of news alerts buries the findings that actually matter
The agent delivers a structured report on schedule instead of a constant drip of alerts. Key findings are grouped by market, so readers see the overall picture rather than scattered headlines.
Old research is hard to check because nobody kept the sources
Every finding in the report links to the original source. Your team can verify a claim before it goes into a plan, deck or board paper.
A good fit if
You need periodic market or category research to support a decision, such as entering a segment or sizing an opportunity, not a constant feed of alerts.
You want findings delivered as a structured report, with sizing inputs and trend sections, rather than a running list of small changes.
You have up to 25 sources, markets or topics you want covered, and specific questions each report should answer.
Your team currently pulls this together manually from search results and old reports, and wants a repeatable process instead.
Not the right fit if
You want continuous alerts the moment a specific page changes, not a periodic report. See AI Website Monitoring or AI Competitor Website Monitor.
Your research is about specific suppliers rather than the market as a whole. See AI Supplier Research.
You need a category-level pricing and sourcing view for procurement decisions. See AI Procurement Research.
You need this folded into a monthly system alongside competitor and customer signals. See AI Market Intelligence.
How it works
- You set the research questions. Up to 25 markets, categories or topics, plus the specific questions each report needs to answer, are agreed during intake.
- Research runs against named sources. The agent works through the web sources, RSS feeds and documents you point it at, rather than guessing at what is relevant.
- Findings are structured into a report. Sizing inputs, trend direction and key findings are organized into sections, not delivered as a loose list of links.
- Every claim is sourced. Each finding in the report links back to where it came from, so your team can verify it before using it in a deck or a decision.
- The report lands on your schedule. Daily or weekly, depending on how often the market you are tracking actually moves, the report arrives in email, Slack or Notion.
- A change alert fires on top when something material shifts. Between scheduled reports, a notable shift in a tracked market or topic still reaches you immediately.
What you provide within 72 hours
Your portal lists these the moment you order. Delivery starts the working day after everything is in and your access is checked.
- The markets, categories or topics you want researched, up to 25 in total.
- The specific questions each report needs to answer, so findings stay relevant to the decision you are making.
- Access to the delivery channel for reports: email, Slack or Notion.
- Admin access and any API keys for connected systems, shared by adding our team as a user or creating a key you control, never by email.
- Your business information (company basics, hours and brand voice), shared during intake.
- One decision-maker who can approve the research questions and sign off during review.
- An API key for your own AI model account (for example OpenAI or Google Gemini), created for this build with a spending limit.
The 72-hour rule. Send everything on your checklist, including access, within 72 hours of ordering so your build starts on time.

Before you start: Note how market questions are answered today and roughly how many hours they take. Keep your last planning pack for comparison.
These are things to track, not promised results. Outcomes depend on your data, your team and your market.
Running costs
Running this costs roughly $20 to $120 a month, covering AI usage and any web data or search APIs the research draws on. A report covering 25 tracked topics on a weekly schedule usually sits mid-range within that.
The build price is one-time. Ongoing usage bills to your own accounts, so you keep the provider relationships and the invoices in your name.
Ask about running costsCustom requirements
If you want more than 25 tracked topics, a second delivery channel, or deeper primary research such as interviews, add a note at checkout. You get a written Change Quote. Your original order keeps its normal timeline either way. Larger or bespoke projects go through the Custom AI request form instead.
Request a custom versionKeep it running
For this build we recommend monthly maintenance, with change hours for adjusting research questions or adding topics as your priorities shift. Maintenance starts once the 30 days of included support ends.
$249/mo (the minimum fee, includes 2 change hours)
Optional. Starts after the post-launch support period. Cancel any month.
How maintenance worksHow this compares
| Do it yourself with a SaaS tool | Hire a custom agency | Upmark Labs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price | A research subscription charges monthly regardless of whether you read the reports | A research agency quotes a project after a discovery call, per report | Ours is one fixed price, shown on this page before you buy |
| Structure | A subscription's reports follow a generic template | An agency's report structure depends on the project | Ours is structured around the exact questions you set at intake |
| Sourcing | A subscription report does not always show its sources | An agency's sourcing depends on the project | Ours links every finding back to where it came from |
| Topic limit | A subscription prices by seat or by report | An agency's topic count is whatever was agreed | Ours covers up to 25 tracked topics in the fixed price |
Questions about this product
How is AI Market Research Agent different from a monitoring tool?
It delivers structured, periodic reports built around specific questions, rather than a running list of page-level changes. If you need continuous change alerts on named pages instead, see AI Website Monitoring or AI Competitor Website Monitor, which are built for that kind of ongoing tracking.
What does an AI Market Research Agent report actually contain?
Sizing inputs, trend direction and key findings, organized into sections around the questions you set at intake, with every finding linked back to its source. It reads as a structured document your team can use directly, not a raw list of search results to sort through yourself.
Is AI Market Research Agent different from AI Supplier Research or AI Procurement Research?
Yes. This build researches the market or category as a whole, such as sizing and trends. AI Supplier Research evaluates specific vendors against your criteria, and AI Procurement Research benchmarks category-level pricing and sourcing options. Pick based on whether you need the market, the vendors, or the buying terms.
How often do AI Market Research Agent reports arrive?
Daily or weekly, set during intake based on how fast the market or topic you are tracking actually moves. Between scheduled reports, a change alert still fires immediately if something material shifts in a tracked topic you are following, so you are not left waiting until the next report.
How much does AI Market Research Agent cost to run each month?
Roughly $20 to $120 a month for AI usage and any web data or search APIs the research draws on, billed to your own accounts. The build price is a single one-time payment that covers setup, testing and launch, with no monthly fee from us.
Can I change the AI Market Research Agent questions later?
Yes. Adjusting questions or swapping a handful of tracked topics fits inside the monthly change hours that come with maintenance, which you can cancel any month. Expanding past 25 tracked topics or adding a second delivery channel goes through a Change Quote, priced before work starts.
Does AI Market Research Agent do primary research, like interviews?
No, this build researches from web sources, RSS feeds and documents you provide, not primary interviews or surveys. If you need that depth, add a note at checkout and we will quote it separately, or start from our Custom AI enquiry form for larger research programs.
What if an AI Market Research Agent report misses something important at launch?
You get two rounds of changes during the trial report cycles before launch, to fix structure, sources or questions. After delivery you have five working days to report anything that does not match the agreed scope, fixed at no extra cost.
Get a market report your team actually trusts.
Order AI Market Research Agent and your team gets a structured, sourced report on the markets you name, on your schedule. Two trial report cycles are reviewed with you before it goes live.
