The deliverable
Read the actual deliverable first.
Nobody should buy competitive intelligence from a description of competitive intelligence. Here is a real brief, in full, with every source live.
This is the same document a client receives, same structure, same sourcing rule, same audit, written on a public asset instead of yours. It is roughly 1,500 words, and every factual claim in it links to the primary record it came from.
One work email and the PDF opens immediately. No sales sequence, no qualification call. Want each briefing by email as well? That is a separate signup, nothing is added without your confirmation.
One address, one email. Never sold, see privacy. Would rather leave nothing? Email me and I'll send it over.
What is inside a Prognyx brief
- What happened. The event, with the date and the document. No preamble.
- The number that matters, including, when relevant, the number a company has not disclosed. That absence is often the whole story.
- Why it matters. The mechanism of the threat or the opening, in terms of your positioning rather than the news cycle.
- Who is exposed, who gained. Named companies and programmes, with the exposure quantified wherever public data allows.
- What to watch, with dates. The calendar: readouts, PDUFA goal dates, congress slots. This is what keeps the brief useful a month later.
- The now-what. The two or three moves actually on the table for you, stated as options rather than as a recommendation you did not ask for.
- Sources. Every one, numbered and linked. You can rebuild the whole analysis yourself.
What to look for while reading it
Three things distinguish a brief that is worth paying for from a well-formatted news summary. Check for them:
- Does it say what it doesn't know? Look for the phrase "cannot be confirmed from public sources". A brief that never admits a gap is either lucky or filling.
- Do the links go to primary documents? A ClinicalTrials.gov record, an SEC exhibit, an FDA action, not to another article about them.
- Is there a decision in it? If the last section is a summary rather than options with dates attached, the analysis stopped one step short of being useful.
Those are also the three tests Prognyx applies to its own output before publishing. The procedure is written up on how we work.
Then scope one on your own asset
The public sample demonstrates the method. The paid pilot applies it to one of your assets, one indication and one decision question, at a fixed fee agreed in writing, with delivery in five business days and one written revision.
Every briefing Prognyx publishes openly is also on The Watchtower, added to as the field moves. Read those too; they are not curated for the pitch.
Frequently asked
What is in the sample brief?
A complete oncology competitive brief on a public asset: what happened, the number that matters, why it matters, who is exposed, a dated watch list, the strategic options, and every source numbered and linked. Roughly 1,500 words, the same structure and sourcing standard as a client deliverable.
Do I have to give an email to read it?
One work email, and the PDF opens immediately, no name, no company, no phone number, and no sales sequence afterwards. If you would rather not, email hello@prognyx.com and it will be sent to you directly.
How is a pilot on my own asset priced?
Each pilot is one fixed fee, quoted in writing with the scope. The public sample remains free to read; a custom brief starts only after the asset, indication, decision question, delivery date and fee are confirmed in writing.
How long does the pilot take?
Five business days from the agreed start. If the evidence cannot support the agreed question, we say so before taking payment or propose a narrower scope.
Now apply it to one decision.
Name the asset, indication and decision question. We confirm the scope and fee of the one-off pilot in writing.
