Orthogonal Market Research

Market Research - Comprehensive Market Analysis

Setup

Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json:

export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])")
export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))")

If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run: npx gooseworks login

All endpoints use Bearer auth: -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY"

Research market size, trends, competitors, and growth opportunities for any industry.

Workflow

Step 1: Identify Key Players

Find companies in the market:

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"fiber","path":"/v1/natural-language-search/companies"}'
  "query": "AI software companies with over 100 employees, Series B or later funding"
}'

Step 2: Research Company Details

Get detailed info on key players:

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"fiber","path":"/v1/company-search"}'
  "searchParams": {
    "company_names": ["OpenAI", "Anthropic", "Cohere"],
    "include_financials": true
  }
}'

Step 3: Find Decision Makers

Identify leadership at key companies.

Use Apollo first ($0.01 flat per call — cheapest option):

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/apollo/mixed_people/search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "person_titles": ["CEO", "CTO", "VP Product", "Head of Sales"],
  "organization_domains": ["openai.com", "anthropic.com"],
  "per_page": 25
}'

Fallback — Fiber people search ($0.02/record):

curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/fiber/v1/people-search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "searchParams": {
    "company_names": ["OpenAI", "Anthropic"],
    "job_titles": ["CEO", "CTO", "VP Product", "Head of Sales"]
  }
}'

Example Usage
