RESEARCH METHOD
Signals are starting points, not conclusions.
Retail visibility, awards and conversation can place a product in the field notes. Each product fact still needs its own direct check.

INGREDIENT RECORDS
Formula detail belongs to the pack it came from.
Ingredient details appear only when a formula disclosure has been checked. A missing ingredient record is not evidence that an ingredient is absent from a product.

A field note for every signal.
Each channel is a research path. It describes how an item surfaced in the supplied material; it does not measure commercial performance.
