Impact assessment
影响评估
For each news item, assess:
| Dimension | Question | Rating |
|---|---|---|
| Relevance | Does this directly affect our product or market? | High / Medium / Low |
| Urgency | Do we need to respond now, or can we observe? | Immediate / Watch / Archive |
| Impact | If this plays out, how big is the effect? | Major / Moderate / Minor |
| Confidence | How certain are we this is accurate? | Confirmed / Likely / Speculative |
针对每条新闻，评估以下维度：
| 维度 | 问题 | 评级 |
|---|---|---|
| 相关性 | 该内容是否直接影响我们的产品或市场？ | 高/中/低 |
| 紧急性 | 我们需要立即响应，还是持续观察？ | 立即/观察/存档 |
| 影响力 | 若该事件持续发展，影响程度如何？ | 重大/中等/轻微 |
| 可信度 | 我们对信息准确性的确定程度？ | 已确认/可能/推测 |
Trend identification
趋势识别
A single news item is an event. Multiple related items form a trend:
- Collect — Gather 5-10 related data points
- Timeline — Plot them chronologically to see velocity
- Triangulate — Confirm from multiple independent sources
- Contextualize — What's driving this trend? Is it accelerating or plateauing?
- Project — If this continues, what happens in 6/12/18 months?
单条新闻是独立事件，多条相关事件构成趋势：
- 收集 — 收集5-10个相关数据点
- 时间线 — 按时间顺序排列，观察发展速度
- 交叉验证 — 通过多个独立来源确认
- 背景梳理 — 趋势背后的驱动因素是什么？是在加速还是趋于平稳？
- 预测 — 若趋势持续，6/12/18个月后会发生什么？
Strategic implications
战略影响
For each significant development, answer:
- What changed? — Factual description of the news
- Why does it matter? — Impact on our customers, market, or competitive position
- What should we do? — Specific recommended action (or explicit "no action needed")
- By when? — Urgency and timeline for response
针对每个重大动态，回答：
- 发生了什么？ — 新闻的事实描述
- 为何重要？ — 对我们的客户、市场或竞争地位的影响
- 我们该怎么做？ — 具体建议行动（或明确说明"无需行动"）
- 时间要求？ — 响应的紧急性和时间线
Output structure

- Strategic implication for your product
- Trend Analysis — Patterns across multiple developments
- Market Signals — Weaker signals that are worth watching but not yet confirmed

- 对我们产品的战略影响
- 趋势分析 — 多个动态中的共性模式
- 市场信号 — 值得关注但尚未确认的弱信号
- 建议行动 — 按优先级排列的响应措施
- 信息源 — 所有引用的链接
Quality standards
质量标准
- Separate fact from opinion — "Company X raised $50M" (fact) vs "This signals they'll compete in enterprise" (analysis)
- Date everything — News has a shelf life. Always include publication dates.
- Cite primary sources — Link to the original announcement, not a blog post about the announcement
- Note paywalled sources — If referencing analyst reports, note that the full report requires a subscription
- Provide context — "$20M funding round" means different things for a seed startup vs an established company
- 区分事实与观点 — "X公司融资5000万美元"（事实） vs "这表明他们将进军企业市场"（分析）
- 标注时间 — 新闻有保质期，始终标注发布日期
- 引用原始来源 — 链接至原始公告，而非关于公告的博客文章
- 标注付费来源 — 若引用分析师报告，需注明完整报告需订阅
- 提供背景 — "2000万美元融资轮"对种子初创公司和成熟企业的意义不同
Anti-patterns
反模式
- Don't treat every competitor announcement as a crisis — most launches don't change the market
- Don't confuse announcement with adoption — launching a feature ≠ customers using it
- Don't over-index on hype cycles — the "AI for everything" announcements rarely match reality
- Don't ignore non-obvious competitors — adjacent products expanding into your space are often bigger threats
- Don't present news without the "so what" — PMs need implications, not a news ticker
- 不要将每一次竞品公告视为危机 — 大多数发布不会改变市场格局
- 不要将公告等同于采用 — 推出功能 ≠ 客户使用
- 不要过度关注炒作周期 — "AI赋能一切"的公告往往与现实不符
- 不要忽视非直接竞品 — 相邻产品拓展至你的领域通常是更大的威胁
- 不要只呈现新闻而不说明"意义何在" — 产品经理需要的是影响分析，而非新闻滚动播报
