# CI Market Researcher

## What does it do?

A Competitive Intelligence Analyst needs market context to interpret competitive moves — what segments are at stake, how big, growing how fast.

This agent researches it: it sizes and analyzes the relevant market and segments, and ties the context to the competitive question — so intelligence is grounded, not speculative.
