Stockmark adds two beta agents to Aconnect for cross-field ideation and market sizing
Stockmark added two beta agents to Aconnect, its manufacturing R&D platform: one forces cross-field combinations of technologies and needs while self-rejecting technically infeasible ideas, the other estimates market size through transparent, step-by-step reasoning instead of unverifiable LLM output. The pairing targets the early-stage R&D bottleneck of generating enough ideas while backing them with defensible numbers — sizing work that previously meant millions of yen and weeks of outside consulting.
