SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Founders often know they have competitors but lack a structured, current picture of who they compete with, where they win or lose on the dimensions customers actually value, and what they still need to learn. This Skill turns vague competitive anxiety into an actionable intelligence grid. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Competitive Benchmarking Grid: Maps current and aspirational competitors across general info, market share, and uniqueness, scoring each on customer-valued dimensions (-2 to +2) to compute relative strength and win/parity/loss profiles. - Threat Assessment: Combines competitive strength, momentum, and entry barriers into a High/Medium/Low threat level per competitor, escalating high threats to risk analysis. - Research Plan for Unknowns: Every unknown grid cell becomes a scoped research task with a named method and effort level, never a fabricated guess. - Use Case: A boutique fitness studio losing sign-ups to a big-box gym uses this Skill to benchmark on class quality, flexibility, community, and price, identifying community as a defensible advantage and flagging the closest substitute as a High threat. ## Quick Start Analyze my competitors and show me where my business wins and loses on the dimensions my customers care about most.

FAQPage Schema
How do I analyze my business competitors systematically?▼

Competitive analysis here uses a benchmarking grid: list current and aspirational competitors, populate known data (general info, market share, uniqueness) from public sources, then score each on the dimensions your customers value. Unknowns become research tasks rather than guesses.

How to benchmark competitors on what customers actually value?▼

Start with validated customer-valued dimensions such as price, quality, or service, then score yourself and each competitor from -2 to +2 per dimension. Summing scores yields a relative-strength index and a win/parity/loss profile per competitor.

What data sources can I use for competitor research?▼

Only public, observable, or voluntarily shared sources are permitted: websites, pricing pages, reviews, and marketplace listings. The Skill explicitly prohibits deception, pretexting, or unauthorized access, and unsourced figures must be labeled as inferences.

When should I not run a competitive intelligence analysis?▼

Skip it when the real task is internal capability gaps (use resource-gap-analysis), choosing a growth avenue, or handling a legal/IP threat (route to an attorney). It also requires known customer-valued dimensions first, or the benchmark measures the wrong things.

How often should a competitive analysis be refreshed?▼

The recommended cadence is roughly every six months, plus event-triggered refreshes before entering a new market or when deal-loss patterns shift. Visible competitor moves like price changes or product launches should also trigger an update.
