From signal to understanding

Intelligence Playbooks is most useful when it helps you make one real decision.

Start with the customer’s words, find the repeated pattern, then decide what deserves attention.

Try saying

“Find the repeated problem in these signals and show me the quotes that support it.”

Bring the signal

Connect a source or paste a sample.

Find the pattern

Group the words people keep repeating.

Make it useful

Turn the pattern into a question or opportunity.

Intelligence Playbooks

What this is for

Turn a complex research request into a structured process with a reviewable result.

When this helps

  • Research starts from a blank prompt every time.
  • Important steps are skipped when work is rushed.
  • Outputs are hard to reproduce or compare.

How it works

A playbook packages a question, a sequence of AI and data steps, evidence requirements, and an output format. Specky runs the sequence and leaves the intermediate reasoning available for review.

Before you start

  • A focused research question.
  • Sources or connected tools the playbook may use.
  • A desired output such as a briefing, comparison, or readiness check.

What you should see

  • A structured research result.
  • Source-backed findings and open questions.
  • A reusable process for the next similar request.

Try it now

  1. Open Intelligence Playbooks and choose a playbook that matches the job.
  2. Define the question, scope, competitors, audience, or launch context.
  3. Review the planned steps and source permissions before running it.
  4. Inspect citations and intermediate findings, then save the result as a decision, brief, or PRD input.

A real example

Before a pricing review, run a competitive playbook with five named competitors, a price-page source list, and a required output of “moves, implications, and recommended response.”

Your next move

Use the competitive analysis recipe for a concrete first run.
