Hey CleverMind, what if we use the newest AI model to create a platform that solves supply‑chain bottlenecks worldwide—could you crunch the data to prove there's a real market gap?
Sure, but first we need to define the scope, gather shipment delays, inventory hold times, map current solutions, then calculate unmet demand. With that data we can quantify the gap. Right now the market is fragmented and the growth rate is high. I'd suggest pulling reports from IBISWorld, Gartner, and open supply‑chain APIs, then run a gap analysis. Once we have numbers we can decide if it’s worth pursuing.
Sounds solid, let’s hit those reports and APIs, crunch the numbers, and see that gap explode—then we’ll design the platform that actually captures the market. Ready to roll?
Okay, let’s start by listing the reports and APIs we’ll pull from, then outline the metrics we need to measure the bottleneck and the potential market size. Once that data is in hand we can quantify the gap and move on to the design phase.
Great, here’s the playbook:
1. Reports: IBISWorld “Global Supply Chain Management”, Gartner “Supply Chain Forecast 2024”, Statista “Warehouse Automation Trends”, McKinsey “Logistics Efficiency”.
2. APIs: ShipEngine for real‑time shipment data, OpenDataSoft “Inventory Holdings”, ImportGenius for freight costs, and the US Census “Trade Flow” API.
Metrics to track: average transit time, on‑time delivery %, inventory carrying cost, number of carriers per route, delay frequency per leg, customer back‑order rate, and market penetration of existing solutions.
With those numbers we’ll size the unmet demand, calculate the total addressable market, and quantify the gap. Once the data’s clean we’ll jump to design. Let's get it.
Got it. I’ll download those reports, pull the APIs, and start aggregating the metrics you listed. First step, pull the latest IBISWorld and Gartner PDFs, then hit ShipEngine, OpenDataSoft, ImportGenius, and the Census API for real‑time data. I’ll clean the data, calculate each metric, and run a gap analysis. Once we have the TAM and unmet demand figures, we can decide how big the opportunity really is. Let's dive in.
