# Turn ecosystem change into focused product research.

Explore a custom SignalTally + Linear workflow. A proposed research issue with evidence and clear acceptance questions.

Give your product team a concrete merchant or ecosystem change to investigate, with the supporting context already assembled.

## Start with the right context

Scope how qualified ecosystem changes become research work. Group related observations so a product team receives one useful investigation, with the affected merchant segment and uncertainty attached.

## Make the next step specific

Ask whether the theme changes the placement or behavior of your app. Draft a test plan before promising compatibility or claiming a defect has been found.

## Scope the connection around your team

This is a proposed custom integration workflow, illustrated with fictional data. We develop connections around your tools, available APIs and account permissions. Provider access, field mapping, usage costs and delivery behavior are agreed before activation.

## Illustrative Linear workflow

Signal: A new premium theme gains adoption across your target merchant segment.

Proposed action: Prepare a compatibility research issue

- Topic: Emerging premium theme
- Signal: Modeled adoption growth
- Scope: Compatibility research
- Owner: Commerce integrations team

Outcome: A proposed research issue with evidence and clear acceptance questions.

Fictional data; a proposed custom integration, not a live connection.

## Does a signal automatically create engineering work?

Only if that behavior is agreed. The proposed workflow can begin with a review queue, then create a scoped research issue after a product owner accepts it.
