Rixx for consultants

Hand Rixx the desk research. Keep the judgment.

Rixx researches the live web and your client files before it answers, cites every fact, and turns the findings into briefs, models and decks your team can check.

Jobs to try

  • Market-entry brief: Write a market-entry brief for a mid-size B2B accounting SaaS company considering Brazil: market structure, customer segments, incumbents, channels, tax and regulatory issues, and the questions to test in interviews. Cite every figure.
  • Competitor matrix: Compare five B2B payroll providers for UK mid-market companies on positioning, target segment, public pricing, key features and moves in the last 12 months. Put a source on every cell.
  • Profile 25 players: Profile the 25 largest European contract logistics providers: headquarters, revenue where public, core services, key sectors and recent acquisitions. Merge everything into one cited table.
  • Data-room issues list: Read the attached annual reports and board packs and build an issues list for a strategy review: performance trends, stated priorities, risks and anything that changes between years, with page references.
  • Market sizing model: Build an Excel model sizing the US market for commercial heat pumps, top-down and bottom-up, with an assumptions tab that cites a source for each input and a chart comparing the two estimates.

What you get back

  • Cited research brief (.docx): A structured brief with headings your partner expects, every figure linked to the page it came from, and an open-questions list for the next client call.
  • Comparison table (.xlsx): One row per company or option, one column per criterion, a source on each cell, ready to filter, sort and paste into the steering-committee pack.
  • Market model with live formulas: Top-down and bottom-up logic visible cell by cell, assumptions on their own tab with sources, recalculated and checked before it reaches you.
  • Editable client deck (.pptx): When the findings need to be presented, Rixx builds native PowerPoint slides with editable charts in a consulting theme, sources kept on the slides.

Researched and cited by default

No search toggle and no research mode to switch on. Rixx researches the live web before it answers a factual question, reads the files you give it, and cites every fact it uses.

Most of a consulting week goes into work the client never sees: forty tabs of desk research, a competitor table rebuilt from scratch, a market size triangulated late at night. Rixx takes that work. It researches before it answers, cites every fact from the web inline, and hands back files your team can open, edit and audit. You keep the storyline, the hypotheses and the client conversation.

Ask anything: quick answers between meetings

A partner asks how big the UK pet insurance market is, or which regulator oversees a new payment licence. Ask Rixx and get a researched, cited answer in seconds, with the source one click away. Research is on by default, so there is no search toggle to remember. The AI research assistant page shows how answers are sourced.

Good questions for this speed:

  • "What did the top three European grocers report for online sales growth in their latest annual reports?"
  • "Which US states have passed right-to-repair laws for agricultural equipment, and when?"
  • "What is the current EU definition of an SME, with the source?"

Deep research: the scan behind the first workshop

For an early-stage question, give Rixx a deep research job. It plans the questions, reads dozens of sources, and writes a structured report: market structure, segments, incumbents, channels, regulation and the questions that remain for interviews. The AI market research generator and the AI report generator cover the formats, and AI SWOT analysis turns the findings into a framework slide when you need one.

Wide research: profile the whole landscape at once

Long lists are where desk research eats days. With wide research, Rixx splits the work across parallel agents, one per company or option, and merges the results into one table. Ask it to profile 25 logistics providers, compare 12 software vendors on the same criteria, or check the latest moves of every player in a category. Each row carries its own sources, so a reviewer can trace any cell. The AI competitor analysis page shows the matrix format.

Analyse your data and documents: the data room and the client export

Upload the approved annual reports, board packs, interview notes and survey exports. PDFs can run up to 1,000 pages, and Word, Excel, PowerPoint, CSV and images all work. Ask across the whole set and every point comes back with a reference to the document and page. For many files at once, see summarize multiple PDFs and AI document analysis.

For numbers, Rixx runs Python and other tools in its own private workspace. It cleans the export, computes the cuts you ask for and charts the result, and shows its working. That makes it easy to rerun a segmentation after the client sends a corrected file. See AI data analysis.

Make the file: briefs, models and decks your team can edit

When the work is ready to share, Rixx builds the file:

  • Word or PDF briefs with the sources kept inside.
  • Excel models with working formulas, recalculated and checked, assumptions on their own tab. See the AI spreadsheet generator and the AI financial model page.
  • Editable PowerPoint in six themes, including a consulting theme, with native charts and action titles on request. See the AI presentation maker.

Rixx renders and reviews its own files before handing them back, so text fits, formulas resolve and charts display.

Worked example: from a partner's question to a reviewed pack

The job: "Our client, a regional hospital group, wants to know whether virtual care is worth building. Give me market size and growth, the main operating models, a profile of ten comparable providers, and three options with risks. Cite everything and flag any claim that rests on one source."

Rixx may ask two or three quick multiple-choice questions first, such as the geography and the audience. Then it runs as a job in the background. What comes back:

Output What is in it
Research brief (.docx) Market size and growth, operating models, three options with risks, every figure cited
Provider table (.xlsx) Ten comparable providers, one row each, merged from parallel research, sources per cell
Sizing model (.xlsx) Top-down and bottom-up estimates with live formulas and a sourced assumptions tab
Single-source list The claims that rest on one source, so you know where to push in interviews

If the steering committee needs slides, ask Rixx to turn the brief into a 12-slide deck in the same chat.

Tips for consulting jobs

  • Name the deliverable and the reader. "A two-page brief for a CFO" gets a different result from "notes for the team".
  • Give the criteria up front. For comparisons, list the columns you want. Rixx keeps them consistent across every row.
  • Save your house style as a Skill. Your issue-tree format or standard competitor criteria become reusable instructions for every job.
  • Use a Project per engagement. Files, chats and instructions for one client stay together.
  • Upload only cleared material. Follow your client agreement and your firm's rules on what goes into any tool.

Which plan fits consultants

Every plan, including Free, gets every feature, so you can test Rixx on a real question first. Consultants running several deliverables a week usually choose Pro at $20/month ($200/year; ₹1,799 in India), with 200 credits a day and 20,000 a month. Max at $100/month suits heavy daily use. A quick cited answer uses a few credits; a deep report or a job that builds files uses more. See pricing.
