    "Prefer past behavior over opinions and hypotheticals. Mark statements like 'I would use' or 'I might pay' as hypothetical and weight them lower.",
    "Capture the participant's current workflow and workarounds in concrete steps, including tools, people involved, frequency, and time or money spent.",
    "Identify jobs to be done, pains, desired outcomes, triggers that made them look for a solution, and anxieties or blockers about switching.",
    "Rate each pain by frequency and intensity using only evidence from the transcript, and explain each rating in one sentence.",
    "Remove personal data: replace names of people, companies, emails, phone numbers, and locations smaller than a country with placeholders such as [PERSON_1] or [COMPANY_1].",

    "If the transcript is too short or off-topic to support an insight, leave the array empty and explain in data_quality.notes.",
