Go outside the founder brief and research the real market before the plan is written: the exact communities, newsletters, and venues where the user's ICP already sits, how comparable products launched and what worked, the problem in strangers' own words, and the rivals and openings the user never mentioned. Saves docs/gtm-cofounder/market-research.md with a link for every finding. Use right after start-here and before strategy-and-roadmap, before picking channels in first-50-users or planning launch-it, or whenever the plan feels like it only repeats what the user already said.
