SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you quickly determine which competitive advantages in a company will survive the LLM era and which are likely to collapse, turning that assessment into actionable disruption opportunities.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • 10 Moats scoring: Evaluates the 10 Moats of Vertical Software (5 LLM-exposed, 5 durable) and produces structured scores with evidence prompts.
  • Disruption risk & durability metrics: Calculates a Disruption Risk Score (0-100) and a Moat Durability Score (0-100) plus a risk tier and timeline.
  • Strategic opportunities: Generates concrete startup ideas to attack the weakest moats and recommends defense/attack actions depending on whether the target is an existing business or a new venture.

Quick Start

Ask your agent to analyze moats for "Salesforce" and return the disruption risk, moat durability, three-question test results, and five disruption opportunities.

FAQPage Schema
How do I analyze a business moat to estimate LLM disruption risk?

To analyze a business moat, you evaluate the target against the 10 Moats of Vertical Software framework. This process produces structured moat scores, calculated disruption risk metrics, and actionable recommendations for attacking weak points.

What is the 10 Moats of Vertical Software framework for competitive intelligence?

The 10 Moats of Vertical Software framework consists of 5 LLM-exposed moats and 5 durable moats. It evaluates competitive advantages to determine which will survive the LLM era and which are likely to collapse.

How do I score disruption risk and moat durability for a specific company?

Scoring disruption risk involves evaluating the target company across the 10 moats to generate a Disruption Risk Score and a Moat Durability Score from 0-100. The output includes a risk tier, disruption timeline, and a three-question test.

Can I use moat analysis to find startup opportunities in vertical software?

Yes, moat analysis generates concrete startup ideas by identifying and attacking the weakest moats of incumbent businesses. It recommends specific defense or attack actions whether you are evaluating an existing business or a new venture.

Does the moat analyzer require web search tools to evaluate competitive intelligence?

Yes, the moat analyzer requires research via web search tools to gather evidence on the target company. This research supports the structured moat scores and calculated disruption risk metrics.

What is the difference between LLM-exposed moats and durable moats?

LLM-exposed moats are competitive advantages likely to collapse in the LLM era, while durable moats are expected to survive. The analyzer scores both types to estimate overall disruption exposure.
