Dr. Alfred Ang builds autonomous AI agents that research, analyse and report, the core skills behind agentic market research. He is a full-stack AI developer and Agentic AI solution architect who designs multi-agent systems with frameworks such as n8n, Langflow, Flowise, the OpenAI Agents SDK, Google Gemini Agent SDK, Claude Agent SDK, Microsoft AutoGen and CrewAI, and he is the founder of Tertiary Courses and Managing Director, CIO, CTO and Chief Instructional Designer of Tertiary Infotech Academy Pte Ltd. His credentials combine analytics and AI: Microsoft Certified Power BI Data Analyst (PL-300), Data Scientist (DP-100) and AI Engineer Associate (AI-102), AWS Certified AI Practitioner and a Certificate in AI Ethics and Governance (Senior Professional) from NTU, together with a PhD in Electrical Engineering from NUS. In his GitHub portfolio, n8n-financeadvisor pairs live market charts with a Telegram AI agent that gives Buy, Sell or Hold recommendations with its reasoning; n8n-ragdemo answers questions grounded in uploaded documents; n8n-inventorycontrol audits data and computes replenishment forecasts; and hermes-video-pipeline uses an agent that researches a topic before producing content. He has also built several lead-magnet websites for consultancy and marketing scenarios, as well as ai-cms and ai-pei, Claude Agent SDK platforms with self-improving lead-gen chatbots, so he understands how research findings flow into real marketing decisions and campaigns. He is also an IBM certified instructor for the AI Practitioners course and an ACTA-certified trainer.
WSQ - Agentic AI for Market Research shows marketing, business development and strategy professionals how to run market research with AI agents doing much of the gathering and analysis. The first topic identifies market research data and sources with Claude Cowork, defining research objectives and questions and connecting the agent to documents, datasets and research sources through Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools. Learners then analyse market trends and industry developments, and in the third topic move to customer behaviour analysis, market dynamics and forecasting, using agents to segment customers, interpret signals and test simple forecasts. The final topic evaluates marketing effectiveness with agentic AI models and indicators, connecting campaign data to measurable outcomes. Dr. Ang's work with the Claude Agent SDK and RAG pipelines means he can show learners how to brief an agent precisely, ground its answers in sources they can verify, and catch the confident but unsupported claims that undermine research credibility. His data analytics certifications shape the emphasis on clean data, sensible indicators and charts that decision makers can read at a glance. He also covers responsible use, including protecting confidential data and documenting how conclusions were reached. The course is hands-on throughout, with each learner researching a market of their choice and producing an evidence-backed market research brief by the end. Learners also see how to save their research workflow so that it can be rerun as markets change.
