# Business Context Analysis

## Purpose

Select the business evidence and framework needed to change a current Opportunity, Value, or Viability decision.

## When to Use Each Framework

| Framework | Use When | Key Output |
|-----------|----------|------------|
| Business Model Canvas | Understanding or designing the business model | 9-component business model map |
| Value Proposition Canvas | Designing value propositions that match user needs | Customer Profile + Value Map fit |
| Market Analysis | Understanding market size, competition, and trends | Market sizing, competitive positioning |

Read only the selected reference. Extract evidence rather than reproducing the framework:

- `references/business-model-canvas.md` for business-model fit and Viability dependencies
- `references/value-proposition-canvas.md` for jobs, pains, gains, and Problem-Solution Fit
- `references/market-analysis.md` for market size, segmentation, competition, trends, or gaps

## Key Principles

- Cite sources for market claims and label estimates or assumptions.
- Revalidate source age only when changed conditions can affect the current decision.
- Cross-check a claim when the decision depends on a contested estimate.
- Stop when additional business context cannot change the Opportunity or risk decision.
