  "executive_summary_for_wave": "The corpus REINFORCES the Texas forensic finding: AI agents reconstruct local-business answers from a small graph of external surfaces (8-15 nodes), and there is a clear product wedge for WR to sell the orchestration of that graph as a one-time $1,497 Placement Pack on top of the $2,500 Rebuild. The 7-platform MVP scope (GBP + Yelp + Apple Business Connect + BBB + Wikidata + Facebook Page + 1 vertical-specific) captures 80%+ of the citation graph at $200 platform-fee ceiling (BBB cert charged direct-to-customer). Vendors in the space (Yext, BrightLocal, Whitespark, Synup, Moz Local) are all subscription-and-DIY · none ship done-for-you with AI-citation proof · that is WR's wedge. The Texas forensic methodology IS the cold-email engine. Drop Angi (lead-buy, not directory, poor operator sentiment). Add the $79/mo AI-Citation Monitor recurring subscription at handoff (target 40% attach, $3K MRR per 100-customer cohort). Top 3 risks are (1) Yelp ToS enforcement against agency posting (mitigate: customer-driven OAuth, never post-on-behalf), (2) GBP suspension during over-optimization (mitigate: pacing playbook, video verification proactively), (3) manufacturer-cert sales-pitch overpromise (mitigate: sell APPLICATION SUPPORT not the cert itself). Margin floor ~76% at $1,497. White-label wholesale at $997 to local-SEO agencies opens the cheat-code channel WR already validated. Build the Pack, ship in 3 weeks, pilot on 3 customers, then scale via the existing cold-email + agency channels."
