# Does Megido support a claim about a market?

> A verdict on a claim about a niche and the numbers it rests on.

**Who asks:** Data team fact-checking market claims

## Example

**Question:** An article says the AI headshot market is shrinking. Does Megido support that?

**Megido calls:**

- `search_cohorts`: 1 niche
- `get_cohort`: distributions

**Answer:**

```json
{"claim": "the AI headshot market is shrinking", "verdict": "supported", "niche": "AI headshot generators",
 "measured": {"size": "50-199", "share_growing": 32, "share_declining": 39},
 "caveats": ["growth covers the latest month only", "a niche is a sample of sites with observed revenue"]}
```

Real data from the corpus, as of August 2026. Growth compares the latest month with the one before.

## How your agent answers

1. `search_cohorts` matched the claim's topic to a niche.
2. `get_cohort` returned how many of its members are growing and declining.

## Where it stops

Megido measures one month of traffic on sites with observed revenue. It cannot speak to revenue, prices or a longer trend.
