# Research brief — Crewmori workflow starter

GOAL
Compare [two to five options] for [specific decision].

CONTEXT
Decision owner: [role]
Criteria: [cost, capability, effort, constraints]
Allowed sources: [public primary sources and approved documents]
Freshness: [how current the information must be]
Budget and deadline: [limits]

TEAM
Researcher — collect evidence and source links.
Analyst — compare options using the stated criteria.
Editor — check claims, clarify tradeoffs and shorten the result.

OWNER CHECKPOINT
Ask which criterion matters most if the ranking depends on it.
Save the question and wait rather than inventing a preference.

DELIVERABLE
1. A comparison using the same criteria for every option
2. Recommendation and assumptions
3. Source links and retrieval dates
4. Uncertainty and questions that remain

DONE WHEN
Material factual claims have sources and limitations are visible.
A recommendation is not an instruction to purchase or contact anyone.

SKILL REVIEW
Offer a reusable research checklist for separate owner approval.
