State the decision
Tell us the question, what decision it informs, and any deadline or constraints.
[ INTELLIGENCE // RAPID BRIEF ]
One defined question. A defensible next move.
The Rapid Intelligence Brief is for a decision that needs a clear, external view before it needs a full research program. Bring one focused question; receive a concise memo that separates evidence, assumptions, and implications.
Starting at $500 · delivered within five business days · fixed scope
[ Clear engagement path ]
From inquiry to a defined research engagement.
Human review at every commitment
01
Send the decision
Share the question, decision, deadline, and any material constraints.
02
Receive a fit check
Within two business days, Maha confirms fit or says plainly if the work is not a match.
03
Confirm a written scope
Scope, deliverable, timing, and commercial terms are confirmed before research begins.
04
Receive the agreed work
Receive the agreed concise memo with linked sources, stated assumptions, and decision implications.
An inquiry is not an engagement or a commitment to buy. Maha accepts work only after scope and terms are confirmed by a human.
[ What you receive ]
- A scoped response to one defined market, technology, or policy question.
- A concise 2–3 page memo: answer, key evidence, assumptions, and decision implications.
- Links to the public or authorized sources used, with material uncertainty made explicit.
- Delivery within five business days after the question and scope are confirmed.
[ Right-sized for ]
A fast check on a technology, market, supplier, policy, or strategic claim before you allocate more time or capital.
A decision meeting that needs a compact evidence base and a clear view of what remains uncertain.
A focused question that is too important for a casual web search, but does not need a 10–15 page Verified Research Brief.
[ How it works ]
Operational steps with explicit handoffs.
02
Confirm the scope
We confirm fit, sources, deliverable, price, and timing before research begins.
03
Receive the memo
You receive a concise answer with linked sources, explicit assumptions, and next-step implications.
[ Boundaries ]
This is an independent research memo, not a substitute for specialist diligence or regulated professional advice. If a question requires deeper validation, we will recommend the full Verified Research Brief or tell you plainly that it is outside our scope.
- Primary interviews, confidential diligence, legal advice, investment advice, or engineering sign-off.
- Open-ended research programs, ongoing monitoring, or a fully provenance-tagged evidence record.
[ Start with the question ]
A smaller brief should still make the uncertainty visible.
Send the question, the decision it informs, and your deadline. We reply within two business days to confirm whether a Rapid Intelligence Brief is the right fit.
