Really confused as to why 30,000 businesses would want to pay forty bucks each for the output of a large language model. It’s maybe one step up from an infinite number of monkeys but an insane distance away from market research.
Folks who don’t understand market research or love the chaos? I for one thing most human based market research is low quality anyway, so why not just make something up.
This is actually one of the better use cases of generative AI that I've seen so far. The killer feature that would get me to purchase a $40 report is to see the competitor landscape - this is a big reason why entrepreneurs pay for Crunchbase Pro.
One annoyance I have with market research sources today is having to first select a broad industry, then narrow down the thousands of companies within that industry by quantifiable metrics (employees, fundraising, etc). It would be so much more useful to find the most semantically-relevant companies to the one I'm researching, and maybe even see an auto-generated feature comparison chart.
