Client reports: the starting-point report and the pitch report

If you serve clients, VarynForge gives you two documents to hand them. The starting-point report, the Client Snapshot on the pricing page, is free and ready as soon as a project is set up. The pitch report comes from a completed research run and holds the full opportunity map. Both arrive as data and as markdown, so your agent can render them in your own template, under your own name.

The starting-point report

get_starting_point_report takes a projectId and builds a client-facing document from what project setup already produced. It is free on every plan and needs no research run. It covers four things:

  • Positioning: the niche and its market profile.
  • The site and its content inventory: the pages VarynForge mapped from the site.
  • The competitor set: the competitors curated at setup.
  • Early market signals: the first rising topics the radar picked up.

The response carries markdown, a render ready to send, and the same data as structured fields for a custom layout. It also carries lockedSections, which names what a research run adds: the full opportunity map, the 90-day sequence and the competitor gap analysis. Those sections are named, not previewed or faked. Pull one per client on day one, before you have spent anything.

The pitch report

get_pitch_report_payload takes the runId of a completed research run, from get_research_status. It is included with every run at no extra cost. A run that has not finished returns its runStatus and report: null. The payload holds:

SectionWhat it contains
Niche and solution profileWho the market is and what the client's site offers
Competitor landscapeThe competitors the run found in real search results
Opportunity mapGaps only, scored 0 to 100, each marked net_new or partial with how much the site already covers and its closest pages
Covered opportunitiesA separate defend-and-refresh list of topics the site already covers, never to be pitched as new work
90-day content sequenceUp to 12 weeks, planned articles first, then gap topics marked type: topic

Demand is sized in buckets (high, average, long-tail, no traffic), never as a searches-per-month number, by design. A topic in the sequence is a subject to develop, not an article title. Entries can carry notes, such as a near-duplicate or an already-published near-match; keep them visible when you render.

Sizing the sequence

The 90-day sequence follows how often the client actually publishes, not how much content the run found. set_posting_cadence sets that rate on the project, from 1 to 14 articles a week; a new project starts at 2. A client who publishes twice a week gets a twice-a-week calendar.

{ "projectId": "<project id>", "postsPerWeek": 3 }

get_project reads the value back as postsPerWeek. Set it before you pull the report.

A stale asset profile

The payload reports when the site's profile was last synced. When assetProfile.syncedBeforeRun is true, the profile is older than the run. Your agent offers you the choice: run resync_asset_profile to re-read the site first, or render with the profile as it stands. Either way the report carries an "Asset profile last synced" date.

The Report screen

The same two reports live on the Report screen of each project in the web app. With no completed run, it shows the starting-point report and a card listing what a research run adds. Once a run completes, it shows the SEO Opportunity Report from the latest run: market snapshot, the site, competitor landscape, where to win, what is already covered, the 90-day sequence, and a short methodology note. You can download either report as markdown, and the full report as a PDF too. When the profile predates the run, the download asks whether to re-sync first.

Your name on it

The pitch payload's renderGuide lays out the full report structure with a slot for your branding. Render it in your own template, in Docs, Slides, Notion or a PDF, under your own name. VarynForge never asks to be credited: the reports and the articles drafted from them go out under your brand, and your agent never writes into a client's article that it was forged here.

Where to go next

Organizations and teams explains how to keep each client's projects and credits apart. The data-backed path covers the research run the pitch report comes from.
