Acquisition Tactics Research maps acquisition channels and tactics for a founder’s industry using competitor, industry, platform, and unconventional case studies. Use it when you need a neutral audit of what tactics exist, how they are executed, and what resources they require.

Audience JTBD Analysis identifies 3-4 customer segments for a product using Advanced Jobs To Be Done. It is used for founder product enrichment, segment scoring, and channel-fit analysis without web research.

Competitor Gaps analyzes competitive channels, audiences, content, positioning, and execution to find structural advantages a bootstrapped founder can exploit. It is used for the think-tank gap-analysis stage, based on existing enrichment outputs rather than web research.

Cross-Industry Tactic Transfer researches growth tactics from other industries and adapts the underlying mechanism to a founder's distribution challenge. It is used for exploratory think-tank analysis, including controversial tactics, without ranking or prioritizing options.

Diagnostics Intake captures founder input for the Diffmode growth pipeline and writes it into WS/01-diagnostics/founder-input.md. It is used at the start of a workspace to prefill researched fields and flag the missing founder-only details needed for enrichment.

Enrichment Competitors Analysis maps a product’s competitive landscape by identifying direct, indirect, and indie competitors, then documenting positioning and acquisition tactics. Use it when running the enrichment stage’s competitors dimension or when you need a neutral market overview.

Founder Report packages an approved synthesis into a founder-facing growth tactics report. Use it after reviewer checks when you need a plain-language deliverable with tactic cards and no pipeline details.

Growth Factors Mining builds a fresh per-run database of atomic growth mechanisms from public case studies for the Diffmode demand-generation pipeline. It is used when you need transferable growth vectors without reading the proprietary tactics database.

Growth Reviewer checks Diffmode growth-tactics outputs against the matching rubric for a given dimension. Use it to gate enrichment, think-tank, or synthesis outputs before downstream stages consume them.

Lite Constraints generates synthesis-constraints.json from per-run growth-factors.json and founder context. It is used after growth-factors mining and before synthesis to define white-space pairs, mandatory combinations, prohibited patterns, and category diversity rules.

Platform Arbitrage Audit audits major social platforms for genuinely new features and structural openings that competitors cannot easily copy. Use it for live web research on platform recency, audience fit, and authenticity or technical barriers.

Synthesis Build generates a final set of 7-9 novel demand-generation tactics by combining white-space ideation with founder-fit adaptation and merge. It is used at the final stage of the free Diffmode pipeline to produce a synthesis.md and then stop.

Synthesis Explore generates blind vector combinations and derives the emergent mechanisms they could produce for the Diffmode growth-tactics pipeline. Use it when you need structural exploration before tactic design, with checks that reject conventional marketing patterns.
