## Use Cases

### Vetting an Investment Target
An analyst needs to know if a potential investment partner has any hidden liabilities. They ask their agent to run `list_risks` and `list_shareholders`. The agent reports no critical abnormalities, but flags several historical court cases, allowing the analyst to proceed with caution.

### B2B Lead Qualification
A sales rep gets a lead name. Instead of guessing who to talk to, they prompt their agent using `list_staff` to get the names and titles of the main decision-makers, making the initial outreach highly targeted.

### Competitive IP Audit
A product manager needs to see what patents a competitor holds. They use the MCP's `list_ip` tool via their agent and receive an organized list of registered trademarks, allowing them to assess market protection gaps.

### Understanding Corporate Structure
A legal officer needs to verify ownership for a merger. They use the `get_full_details` tool and then follow up with `list_investments` to map out every subsidiary, ensuring no stake is overlooked.
