  1. Emma 0:00

    Your report structure is clean, but evidence behind claims feels thin.

    Line 1
  2. Tom 0:05

    Which section needs stronger proof, the market trend or conclusions?

    Line 2
  3. Emma 0:10

    Mainly the recommendation section; data sources are too limited.

    Line 3
  4. Tom 0:15

    I used internal stats only because deadline was tight.

    Line 4
  5. Emma 0:18

    I understand pressure, but external validation boosts credibility.

    Line 5
  6. Tom 0:24

    Are you saying the whole report is unreliable?

    Line 6
  7. Emma 0:27

    Not at all. Base logic is solid; we just need stronger support.

    Line 7
  8. Tom 0:33

    Got it. I'll add two external benchmarks and one counterexample.

    Line 8
  9. Emma 0:37

    Great, and cite source dates to show data freshness.

    Line 9
  10. Tom 0:42

    I'll revise tonight and send updated version before noon.

    Line 10
  11. Emma 0:45

    If one source conflicts, note assumptions instead of hiding it.

    Line 11
  12. Tom 0:50

    Thanks, this feedback is strict but genuinely useful.
