Analyze competitor product strengths and gaps
Best for
Deciding what to build next when you want to understand competitor advantage and vulnerability with evidence, not opinions.
Inputs
- · competitor name
- · competitor product/feature
- · your product for comparison
Outputs
- · What They Built (functionality, target, differentiator)
- · What's Smart (3 decisions with evidence)
- · What's Weak (3 gaps with numbers/data)
- · Implications for Us (copy/avoid/differentiate)
Preconditions
Competitor product is public or documented; you can articulate your equivalent product; willing to frame analysis around specific metrics
Failure modes
Analysis is too vague ('great UX' without specifics); missing quantitative data (pricing, conversion rates, review counts); analyzing brand instead of product decisions
Trust signals
- · Demands specific product decisions, not visual design opinions
- · Includes quantitative data (pricing, conversion, review counts)
- · Flags unknowns explicitly ('[NEED: more info on X]')
- · Translates analysis into actionable implications
