Our Work

What the research produces.

Explore case studies and sample deliverables by industry and research question. Client engagements and independent samples are labeled separately, so you always know which is which.

Question, research, result.

Client engagements are presented in sanitized form and only with client approval. Independent samples demonstrate our research format and method. They do not represent client work or a real company.

Market, patent, and commercial research for wrist-worn fall detection
COMPREHENSIVE PACKAGE SAMPLE + PATENT LANDSCAPE RESEARCH
Question

An internal hardware program needs a grounded view of its United States market, competitive and patent context, and the commercial assumptions behind a five-year outlook.

Research

Market sizing, competitor, buyer, patent, regulatory and reimbursement, supply-chain, pricing, and channel research, paired with an editable five-year commercial model.

Result

A source-supported report and companion Excel model that separate sourced inputs from unmeasured commercial drivers and make base, downside, and upside cases clear. This reflects a Comprehensive engagement with Patent Landscape Research. Independent sample created from ZKK’s own internal hardware program. It is not client work. Public research is real and sourced; model projections are illustrative, based on stated assumptions, and are not forecasts.
