How to use Ark to do your Market Research

Market research can be life-changing for a startup — understanding your market is key to success. Ark is designed to help you better understand your market. Let’s explore it together!

In the Ark platform homepage, click on Business Planning, and then on the sub-folder Market Research

Then, create a new project by clicking the plus button. If you already have one, simply select it. Each project has its own dedicated context — meaning the AI will only reference information discussed within that specific project, avoiding any “context pollution.” For example, you can explore different strategies without overlap.

After creating a project, you can start by sending a message in the chat. Your dedicated AI Agent will answer your questions and guide you through a focused discussion on market research.

You can chat with agents in each folder using three different options:

1. Consult Partner – This is the default option. It’s a free discussion with the AI Partner dedicated to the folder you’re in. You can also ask the AI to generate documents for you.

2. Analyze Document – This option allows you to upload documents you’ve created or received from stakeholders (for example, an investor) and get an analysis, such as a list of insights or a risk assessment to the received document.

3. Teach Ark – This option lets you teach Ark new information about your company. Everything Ark knows about you is managed in the Company Profile. By selecting Teach Ark, you can upload documents or share information in the chat that you’d like Ark to learn

To kick off the process, we recommend using the following template as your first message in the chat:

Can you give me an overview of my market with an emphasis on {{regions / domains}}.
