<Paste the summary/report from the Deep Research prompt here if you ran it.>
"""

### Goal

Let's brainstorm and define a specific product idea for <briefly describe the initial product concept or area, e.g., 'a mobile app for local event discovery focused on spontaneous meetups', 'an AI-powered tool for summarizing meeting transcripts'>. Using the context provided (if any), guide me in defining:

1.  **Core Problem:** What specific user problem does <the product concept> aim to solve?
2.  **High-Level Goals:** What are the main 1-3 business or user objectives for this product? (e.g., <facilitate spontaneous social connections>, <increase local event attendance>)
3.  **Target Audience:** Briefly describe the primary users (e.g., <young adults new to a city>, <people looking for last-minute plans>).
4.  **Core Concept/Features (High-Level):** Outline the main functionalities envisioned (e.g., <real-time event map>, <"I'm free now" status>, <group chat integration>).

    - **IN SCOPE for MVP:** List the absolute core features needed for the first release (e.g., <view nearby events happening now/soon>, <basic user status sharing>).
    - **OUT OF SCOPE for MVP:** List features explicitly deferred (e.g., <advanced user profiles>, <event creation by users>, <ticketing integration>).
6.  **Initial Technical Leanings (Optional):** Are there any strong preferences or constraints on technology? (e.g., <must be a native mobile app>, <needs real-time database>)
