Our Solutions
Investment Narrative Engine for Regions
For IPAs and EDOs competing for investment. Map who shapes investor perception in your target sectors, sharpen your story, and get it in front of the people who move decisions.
- •8–10 week sprint
- •Deliverable: Intelligence dashboard + narrative framework
Clicks-to-Capital Audit & Upgrade
Audit your digital and narrative presence against investor expectations — and fix what's broken. A focused engagement with a concrete output.
- •3–4 weeks
- •Credits apply toward the full Investment Narrative Engine engagement
Portfolio Intelligence Amplification
Development programs generate enormous intelligence — evaluations, outcome data, technical reports, innovations that worked. Almost none of it reaches the investors, companies, or partners who would act on it if they could find it. Portfolio Intelligence Amplification turns static documentation into a living narrative and builds the case for the next round of funding, partnership, or replication.
- •Foundation engagement + monthly subscription
- •For DFIs, bilateral donors, and development programs

How we do the work
Every Discovered Markets engagement is powered by our Economic Narrative Engine.
We built proprietary tooling to do what traditional consulting can't — map in real time who shapes perception in your market, match your content and story to the right voices, and generate the outreach that moves decisions. The Engine is how we deliver results faster and more precisely than a traditional agency.
Semantic Fingerprints
Map the beliefs, interests, and networks of decision-makers shaping investment
Smart Matching
Identify which of your narratives align with each person's priorities
Draft Outreach
Generate personalized outreach approaches for each stakeholder
