What it does

Generate battle cards and competitive intelligence across 3 dimensions

Best for

Early-stage founders completing Startup Kit Phase 3 to map competitive landscape and validate market opportunity before detailed GTM planning.

Inputs
  • · Product/idea one-sentence description
  • · Problem statement and target customer
  • · Market/category name
  • · Known competitor names and URLs
  • · Geographic market and pricing range
Outputs
  • · Competitor battle cards with positioning and vulnerability mapping
  • · Pricing landscape analysis
  • · Strategic differentiation vs. top 3 competitors
  • · Market complexity assessment and research depth recommendations
  • · Session artifact (03-competitors.md in StartupKit workspace)
Requires
  • · StartupKit session workspace
  • · references/research-scaling.md (complexity scoring matrix)
  • · references/biz/outbound-conversion-baselines.md (if running funnel analysis downstream)
  • · Parallel web research tools (implied)
Preconditions
  • · StartupKit session created or named
  • · Product definition and ICP clear (from prior /slo-gtm or /slo-niche phase)
  • · Known competitors identified (minimum 2-3)
Failure modes
  • · Requires prior session data or answers to intake questions — incomplete context leads to shallow research
  • · Research depth scaling depends on market complexity assessment — may be misjudged by user
  • · Artifact incomplete in shown excerpt (body truncated)
Trust signals
  • · Three-phase workflow (intake, depth assessment, research execution)
  • · Intake questions are focused (product, problem, market, competitors, geography)
  • · Complexity scoring matrix referenced for research scaling
  • · Named output format (03-competitors.md in session workspace)
