Clarify First

Before generating, settle the inputs below. When one is missing or vague and would change the result, ask about it; when it wouldn't, use a sensible default and say which one you used.

• Which deliverable is needed: (market scoring, entry-mode recommendation, localization plan, regulatory map, pricing, or launch plan) — each follows a different framework.
• The target market(s) under consideration: regional regulatory, cultural-distance, and pricing guidance is country-specific.
• Existing traction in that market: (inbound demand, current ARR from it) — the entry-mode graduation path is gated on revenue thresholds; pull vs. push changes the go/no-go.
• Product type and home-market model: (B2B SaaS vs. other; PLG vs. sales-led) — the frameworks are tuned for B2B SaaS and the GTM adaptation depends on the current model.

Ask about the two or three inputs that matter most for this request, not the whole list. If the user wants a result straight away, produce it and state your assumptions at the top.
