Input
What it works from
A company name, or one click from a Live Hiring Radar row.
Studio · Desk Radar
A background brief on any company in 60 seconds.
Headcount, hiring activity, news signals and a scored verdict with quick-win pitch angles.
Client Research gives you the brief before the call. Enter a company and Studio pulls together the size, what they are hiring for and how fast, the recent news that matters, and a scored verdict on whether they are worth the effort, with the quick-win angles to open on. The brief is saved against the client, so when you pitch a candidate to that company later the research feeds the pitch automatically.
01 · How it works
What goes in, what comes out.
Output
What you receive
A structured brief: headcount, hiring activity, news signals, a scored verdict and quick-win pitch angles.
02 · Why it matters
Why this exists.
The difference between a cold call and a warm one is usually 10 minutes of reading that nobody has time for. So the call goes out cold, opens on the agency's credentials, and the hiring manager hears the same pitch they heard yesterday from somebody else.
A 60-second brief moves the reading before the call. Hiring velocity tells you whether they are struggling. News tells you why. The score tells you whether to make the call at all, which is the more valuable answer on a long list. The quick-win angles turn all of that into the first sentence. Because the brief is kept on the client record, the research done today is still working when a candidate for that company appears next month.

04 · In practice
3 ways it shows up.
Scenario 01
A consultant researches 8 Radar rows over lunch and drops 3 that score low, then spends the afternoon on the 5 that matter.
Scenario 02
A desk preparing for a client visit walks in knowing about the new site opening and pitches the volume hire before the client raises it.
Scenario 03
A recruiter who researched a company in June pitches a candidate to it in September and the pitch already carries the June brief.
05 · Who it's for
Who this is built for.
Consultants who have 10 minutes between calls and want to walk into the next one knowing more than the person they are calling expects.
06 · Common questions

A score and a plain-English reason: how strongly the signals suggest a company that needs help and will pay for it.
