Analyze Competitors Strategically

Analyzes competitors with strategic rigor so you understand what to copy, avoid, and differentiate on. It moves past surface-level observations to product decisions: how their pricing creates lock-in, why their API-first strategy wins them 400+ integrations, where they intentionally left gaps. It outputs specific, actionable implications rather than competitive theater.

1. Say 'analyze competitor [company]' or 'compare us to [competitor]'. 2. Claude asks which competitor, which product or feature to analyze, and what you're building for comparison. 3. It analyzes what they built, identifies 3 smart decisions with reasoning (pricing strategy, architecture choices, go-to-market moves), identifies 3 weak spots or missed opportunities, then frames implications for your strategy: what to copy, what to avoid, where to differentiate. Output: a competitive brief with specific examples (e.g., 'freemium with usage-based trigger at week 3 yields 8% conversion vs. industry average 3-5%') and clear strategic directions.

Triggered by 'analyze competitor', 'competitive analysis', or 'compare us to [company]'. Requires inputs on competitor product, your product, and what you want analyzed. Works best with access to competitor products, pricing pages, and review data.
