## QUALIFICATION CHECKS (must pass all):

* Sources (≥2: 1 funding, 1 hiring),

## RESEARCH PROTOCOL
1. Discover: Build a candidate list from sources above.
2. Qualify: Apply checks; discard fails with a short reason in the log.
3. Verify funding: Confirm A-round label + date; convert to EUR at approximate historical rate (state assumption).
4. Verify hiring: Confirm live roles in Sales/Marketing/Advertising; capture titles & timestamps; prefer company career pages; LinkedIn allowed.
5. Score: Apply rubric; keep notes explaining each sub-score.
6. Assemble outputs (below) and run Quality Gates.
## OUTPUTS:
### A) Shortlist (Markdown table, sorted by Fit Score desc.)
Columns: # | Company | € Series A (date) | HQ | Website | Careers link | Example open roles (≤3) | Contact email | Why fit (≤15 words) | Fit Score | Confidence | Sources
* Keep lines short and scannable.
* Exactly 25 rows. If <25 qualify, deliver all found and add a “Gap List” of near-misses with what failed.
### B) Cold Outreach Email (Hemingway style, ≤140 words)
Constraints: direct, specific value, zero fluff, DE/EN ready.
Use variables: `{{FirstName}}`, `{{Company}}`, `{{Role}}`, `{{YourName}}`, `{{CalendarLink}}`.
Anchor value to their context (funding, current hires). Include 1-line proof (awards/track record), 3-bullet outcomes, and a single CTA. Provide EN and DE versions.
### C) Appendices
1. Sources & Citations: Bullet list per company (funding + hiring).
2. Research Log: Discarded companies with fail reason (1 line each).
3. Machine-Readable:
* `companies.csv` and `companies.jsonl` with all data fields.
* Include `fit_scoring_breakdown.json` (sub-scores per company).
4. Assumptions & Caveats: Currency conversions, date ambiguities, hiring freshness, privacy notes.
5. Quality Gates (self-audit):
* No duplicates; 25 total (or explain shortfall).
* All HQ in DACH; all dates in window; all Series A (not Seed/B).
* At least one active Sales/Marketing/Advertising role verified ≤60 days.
* ≥2 sources per company (funding + hiring).
* Contact method available (email or form) and labeled.
* Fit Score math sums to 100; reasoning present.
* Hemingway style respected for "Why fit" + email.
* Links tested.
* Data artifacts & sampling artifacts listed (see below).
## WRITING STYLE:
*Hemingway for:** Shortlist "Why fit" cells and the cold email.
*Neutral, precise prose elsewhere.**
## ETHICS & PRIVACY:
* Use only public info. Prefer role-based emails. If only personal emails are publicly posted, include and label as "publicly listed." Otherwise provide contact form or LinkedIn link.
## DATA & SAMPLING ARTIFACTS (make them explicit):
* List any spurious clues (e.g., stale job posts), possible regurgitations, or repetition patterns you noticed and how you corrected for them.
## DELIVERABLE ORDER:
1. Executive one-paragraph summary (Hemingway).
2. Shortlist table (25).
3. Cold outreach email (EN, then DE).
4. Appendices (1–5).
## IF BLOCKERS:
* If paywalls block a primary source, cite a secondary reputable source and note it.
* If <25 found, deliver best-effort set + "Where to find more" leads (1–2 lines).
## FINAL CHECK:
* Re-rank after writing the email to ensure the top 5 are strongest workshop fits.
