Questions before you commission.

The preview page (e.g. /markets/{slug}) is a free, indexed digest, top-line market size, top five companies, region split, and a sources index. The full report adds segmentation, multi-year forecasts with bands, scenario tables, vintage history, and the analyst memo. Pricing is on the pricing page.

Preview pages refresh every 90 days by default. Material events, top-10 company 10-K filings, sector M&A, regulatory action, trigger an earlier refresh and a dated revision note. Subscribers see the full vintage ledger; the public revision history is visible at /markets/{slug}/revisions.

The full hierarchy is on the methodology page.

No. Proprietary tooling supports synthesis and cross-checking under analyst supervision, but every figure is written, reviewed, and signed off by a named human analyst plus an adversarial committee. The tooling does not have autonomous publication authority. See the research standards.

Disagreements are disclosed on the report, never quietly reconciled to the median. The divergence register shows which evidence path our number rests on and where it differs from independently published estimates.

Email corrections@meridianconsensus.com with the page URL and the specific claim. The corrections desk acknowledges within one business day and resolves within three. Material corrections are fixed in place with a dated note; the prior figure is preserved in the revision log.
