What this prompt does

Maps what you know and what the other side knows before a negotiation, launch, or internal call, without inventing what they know.

Every negotiation, market position, and buyer-seller dynamic runs on an information gap. Most people never map it, they just feel confident or nervous and act on the feeling. This prompt maps the gap directly: what you actually know with a source, what you suspect the other side knows, and which of those suspicions you can verify before the decision closes.

It is strict about the difference between confirmed and suspected knowledge. A guess about what a competitor or counterpart "probably knows" never gets treated as evidence; it stays labeled unverified, even when the guess is a good one. The verdict names the single most consequential gap, fixable or structural, and the one move that changes your position this week.

Built for the moment before a negotiation closes, a launch goes live, or a pricing call gets made, when you suspect the other side knows something you do not, or vice versa. You walk away with a clean map and one action, not a pile of speculation dressed as intelligence.
