# Research Methodology with AI
AI has not made research easier — it has made BAD research easier. Anyone can get a generic summary of a topic in 10 seconds. The skill is getting research that is specific, accurate, and actionable.
The SCOPE Framework
Before you start researching, define the SCOPE:
S — Subject: What exactly are you researching? Be specific. C — Context: Why do you need this research? What decision will it inform? O — Output: What format should the final deliverable take? P — Parameters: What are the boundaries? Time period, geography, industry? E — Evidence standard: How will you verify the information?
