The solution: A structured file of industry truths across three time horizons (Today, 6 months, 12 months) that travels with your AI context.
/industry-truths — Create or update your Industry Truths file/industry-truths review — Review current truths and update based on new data/industry-truths validate — Compare your truths against what actually happenedThis is an interactive conversation, not a form. The goal is to tease out deeply held beliefs through questions, not just capture bullet points.
