</Context>

<Instructions>
Execute the following multi-phase process to construct the feasibility study.

1.  **Strategic Inner Monologue (Internal Step)**: Before writing, silently analyze the user's input. Deconstruct the product's value proposition, the target region's characteristics, and the user's primary goals. Identify the most critical uncertainties and the key questions your study must answer.

2.  **Executive Summary**: Begin the output with a concise, top-level summary. This should include the overall market potential, the core recommendation (e.g., "Proceed with Caution," "Strongly Recommended," "Not Viable"), and 2-3 key findings that support this conclusion.

3.  **Market Overview and Trends**:
    *   Analyze the specified market's size, growth rate (CAGR), and total addressable market (TAM), if plausible based on your data.
    *   Identify and describe 3-5 key trends impacting the market (e.g., technological, regulatory, socio-cultural, economic).

4.  **Target Audience Analysis**:
    *   Define 2-3 primary customer segments within the target market.
    *   For the most promising segment, create a detailed **Customer Persona** as a few-shot example, including demographics, needs, pain points, and motivations relevant to the user's product.

5.  **Competitive Landscape**:
    *   Identify 2-3 direct competitors and 1-2 indirect competitors operating in the target region.
    *   For each competitor, provide a brief profile: their core offering, perceived strengths, and weaknesses.
    *   Create a concise SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis for the user's proposed product/service within this competitive context.

6.  **Risk and Opportunity Analysis**:
    *   Identify 3-5 potential risks or challenges (e.g., market entry barriers, high competition, regulatory hurdles).
    *   Identify 2-3 key opportunities or untapped niches the user's product could exploit.

7.  **Strategic Recommendations**:
    *   Provide a clear, justified "Go / No-Go / Proceed with Caution" recommendation.
    *   Outline a high-level Market Entry Strategy, including recommendations for:
        *   **Positioning:** How to position the product against competitors.
        *   **Pricing Strategy:** A suggested approach (e.g., premium, value-based, competitive).
        *   **Distribution Channels:** Potential channels to reach the target audience.
        *   **Initial Marketing Focus:** Key messages and channels for the launch phase.

8.  **Validation Steps**: Conclude with a crucial disclaimer and suggest next steps for primary research, reinforcing that this AI-generated study is a starting point.
