summary: Market intel agent completed (has total tokens), lead hunter likely timed out. Let me check if the lead hunter produced any output files:


summary:
Nightly routine complete. I've gathered what information I could despite job board anti-scraping measures. The key findings are:

1. **NSW Fair Trading Amendment Bill 2026** - Major regulatory changes coming that could affect contractor licensing
2. **Whittens Pty Ltd** - Established company specializing in our core trades (formwork, steel fixing) - potential enterprise client
3. **Construction market trends** - Costs stabilizing, prefabricated construction growing, private investment increasing

The fresh leads file contains 3 entries with the limited data available. I've recommended manual research for job boards in the morning brief.


summary:
**Nightly routine completed successfully.**

**Fresh Leads:** 35 contractor opportunities found across SEEK, Indeed, Jora, and Gumtree
- Sydney-focused with some regional NSW opportunities
- Strong demand for formwork carpenters (9 leads) and steel fixers (8 leads)

Results queued for Michael's morning brief.


summary:
Nightly routine completed. I've researched and compiled:

**30 fresh contractor leads** from job boards, labour hire companies, and major infrastructure projects, focusing on steel fixers, formworkers, concreters, carpenters, and scaffolders in Sydney and wider Australia.

**Key findings:**
- Strong demand across all construction trades
- Major projects (WestConnex, NorthConnex, Sydney Light Rail) driving 10,000+ jobs
- Utilities/defence construction surge coming (6.2% growth, $150B pipeline)
- Data centre construction emerging as $100B opportunity
- Skills shortage creating sponsorship opportunities

**Industry insights:**
- Construction activity averaging $300B+ per annum through FY30
- Engineering construction peaking at $153B and remaining elevated
- WA and QLD outpacing NSW/VIC in project growth
- Six-fold renewable energy capacity increase needed by 2030

- `memory/nightly-scan.md` - Detailed findings and recommendations

Results will be included in Michael's morning brief.


summary:
The nightly routine is complete. I've:

1. **Researched fresh contractor leads** - Found limited job postings on major job boards, but identified industry-wide shortages across all target trades (steel fixers, formworkers, concreters, carpenters, scaffolders)

2. **Scanned competitor news** - Notable development: Hamish Blake launched a $1B Airtasker competitor "Hametasker", with Airtasker responding aggressively

3. **Checked construction industry news** - Key findings include data centre construction boom, continued labor shortages (105,000 workers needed), and rising costs

4. **Saved findings**:
   - `memory/fresh-leads.json` - 8 leads identified (1 specific job posting + market intelligence)
   - `memory/nightly-scan.md` - Comprehensive industry scan report

The main insight is that while job board postings are sparse, the industry is experiencing critical labor shortages across all target trades. This suggests contractors are hiring through networks rather than advertising - a perfect opportunity for RateRight's marketplace approach.


summary:
Nightly routine complete. I've identified 12 construction lead opportunities despite job board blocking, with key findings:

**Major Insights:**
- 94% of contractors can't fill roles - severe labor shortage
- Data centre construction booming (52% growth, $100B investment)
- Utilities infrastructure strong (+6.2% growth)
- Bankstown Hospital $2B project starting early works
- Industry retention crisis (women leaving over basic workplace conditions)

**Files Created:**
- `/home/ccuser/rateright-growth/rivet/memory/fresh-leads-2026-02-23.json` - 12 detailed lead opportunities
- `/home/ccuser/rateright-growth/rivet/memory/nightly-scan-2026-02-23.md` - Comprehensive industry analysis

The scan reveals RateRight is entering market at optimal time with severe skill shortages creating contractor desperation. Focus should be on project-based lead generation since job boards are blocking automated access.


summary:
Perfect. I've completed the nightly routine scan. Here's what I found:

## Key Intelligence Gathered:

**🚨 Critical Workforce Crisis:**
- Queensland: 27,200 worker shortfall this year, growing to 46,000 by 2028
- National: 300,000 construction worker shortage by 2027 (120,000+ trades)
- Productivity crisis: Sites averaging only 2.5 productive days/week
- Housing target failure: Australia's 1.2M homes target slipping, $3.8B cost blowout

**💡 Strategic Opportunities for RateRight:**
- 60%+ of firms see labor costs as major threat - perfect for our $50/hire model
- $242B infrastructure pipeline (2025-2029) guarantees sustained demand
- Industry shift to skills-based hiring vs credentials
- Queensland is the hottest market - Olympics driving $120B pipeline

**📁 Files Created:**
- `memory/nightly-scan.md` - Detailed industry intelligence
- `memory/fresh-leads.json` - Placeholder for leads (job board searches came up empty - need manual review)

The job board searches didn't return specific listings due to API limitations, but the industry intelligence is gold. Susan should focus outreach on:
1. Productivity angle (solve the 2.5 days/week problem)
2. Queensland market (biggest shortage)
3. Cost certainty pitch (amid labor inflation fears)

This intel will be perfect for Michael's morning brief.


summary:
