We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

4 rules. 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

    Common

    Most of the 3 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 4

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

    Look for these common gaps:

  2. Distinctive:

    When given a competitor to analyze, respond with:

    line 95
  3. Distinctive:

    When you have web access, pull from:

    line 184
  4. Distinctive:

    When you don't have web access, analyze based on:

    line 192

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 3 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Competitor Analyzer

Analyze a competitor's website, positioning, pricing, and weaknesses. Find the gaps.

Description

Competitor Analyzer takes a competitor's name or URL and produces a structured intelligence report covering their positioning, pricing model, feature set, strengths, weaknesses, and the specific gaps you can exploit. It turns "I think we're different" into "here's exactly where we win and why."

Activation

This skill activates when:

  • The user mentions a competitor and wants analysis
  • The user asks "how do we compare to [company]?"
  • The user wants competitive intelligence or market positioning help
  • The user shares a competitor URL and asks for a breakdown

Trigger phrases: "analyze this competitor", "competitive analysis", "how do they compare", "what are their weaknesses", "competitor research", "market positioning", "who are we competing with"

Analysis Framework

1. Positioning Map

Where do they sit on the value/price matrix?

High Price
    |
    |  Enterprise    Premium
    |  (complex)     (simple + expensive)
    |
    |---------------------------
    |
    |  Budget        Value
    |  (cheap+basic) (affordable + good)
    |
Low Price
    Low Complexity ——— High Complexity

2. Messaging Analysis

ElementWhat to Extract
HeadlineTheir main value proposition (H1 on homepage)
SubheadlineSupporting claim or proof
Target AudienceWho are they speaking to? (look at language, examples, case studies)
ToneCorporate / casual / technical / aspirational
Social ProofLogos, testimonials, case studies, numbers
Primary CTAWhat do they want visitors to do first?
Differentiation ClaimWhat do they say makes them different?

3. Pricing Intelligence

ElementWhat to Extract
ModelPer seat / per usage / flat rate / tiered / custom
Entry PriceLowest tier or starting price
Target TierWhich plan are they pushing? (usually highlighted)
EnterpriseDo they have a "Contact Sales" tier?
Free TierFree trial, freemium, or money-back guarantee?
Hidden CostsOverages, add-ons, implementation fees
Annual DiscountHow much do they incentivize annual billing?

4. Feature Matrix

| Feature | Them | Us | Gap |
|---------|------|----|-----|
| [Feature 1] | Yes/No/Partial | Yes/No/Partial | [who wins] |
| [Feature 2] | Yes/No/Partial | Yes/No/Partial | [who wins] |

5. Weakness Identification

Look for these common gaps:

SignalWhat It Means
No case studiesThey can't prove results
"Contact sales" only pricingThey're expensive and know it
Generic messagingThey don't know their ICP
No recent blog/contentProduct may be stagnant
Trustpilot/G2 below 4.0Customer satisfaction issues
High employee turnover (LinkedIn)Internal problems
No integrations pageClosed ecosystem
Requires demo to see productProduct may not demo well
"We do everything" positioningMaster of none
Recent layoffsFinancial pressure

6. Review Mining

Extract patterns from their reviews (G2, Capterra, Trustpilot, Reddit):

  • Praise clusters: What do happy customers consistently mention?
  • Complaint clusters: What do unhappy customers consistently mention?
  • Switching triggers: Why did people leave? What did they switch to?
  • Missing features: What do reviewers wish existed?

Instructions

When given a competitor to analyze, respond with:

## Competitive Intelligence Report: [Company Name]

### Overview
- **URL**: [website]
- **Founded**: [year, if findable]

- **Positioning**: [one-line summary of their market position]

### Messaging Breakdown

|---------|---------|
| Headline | "[their H1]" |
| Value Prop | [what they promise] |
| Target Audience | [who they're talking to] |
| Tone | [corporate/casual/technical] |
| Primary CTA | [what they want you to do] |
| Social Proof | [logos, numbers, testimonials] |

### Pricing
| Tier | Price | Includes |
|------|-------|----------|
| [Tier 1] | $XX/mo | [features] |
| [Tier 2] | $XX/mo | [features] |
| [Tier 3] | Custom | [features] |

### Strengths (Where They Win)

2. [Strength with evidence]
3. [Strength with evidence]

### Weaknesses (Where They Lose)
1. [Weakness with evidence]
2. [Weakness with evidence]
3. [Weakness with evidence]

### Exploitable Gaps
| Gap | How to Exploit |
|-----|---------------|
| [Gap 1] | [Your counter-positioning] |
| [Gap 2] | [Your counter-positioning] |
| [Gap 3] | [Your counter-positioning] |

### Head-to-Head
| Dimension | Them | Us | Winner |
|-----------|------|----|--------|

### Recommended Counter-Positioning
[2-3 sentences: Given their weaknesses and your strengths, here's exactly how to position against them in sales conversations, landing pages, and proposals.]

### Objection Prep
When a prospect says "We're also looking at [Competitor]":
> "[Scripted response that acknowledges them, then pivots to your advantage]"

Batch Mode

Analyze multiple competitors and output a landscape map:

## Competitive Landscape

| Company | Positioning | Price Range | Strength | Weakness | Threat Level |
|---------|-------------|-------------|----------|----------|-------------|
| [Comp A] | Premium | $$$$ | Brand recognition | Slow, expensive | MEDIUM |
| [Comp B] | Budget | $ | Cheap | No support, limited | LOW |
| [Comp C] | Value | $$ | Good product | Unknown brand | HIGH |

### Where We Win
[The specific positioning that beats all of them simultaneously]

Example

Input

Analyze GoHighLevel as a competitor. We sell agentic automation to service businesses.

Output

(Full report generated with GoHighLevel's pricing tiers, their strength in all-in-one marketing, their weakness in requiring manual setup and marketing knowledge, and the exploitable gap: "GoHighLevel gives you the tools. We give you the outcome. Their customers still need to learn marketing. Ours don't.")

Data Sources

When you have web access, pull from:

  • Their website (homepage, pricing, about, blog)
  • G2/Capterra reviews
  • LinkedIn (company size, growth, employee sentiment)
  • Crunchbase (funding, revenue estimates)
  • Reddit/Twitter (user complaints and praise)
  • BuiltWith/Wappalyzer (tech stack)

When you don't have web access, analyze based on:

  • Information the user provides
  • Known industry positioning
  • Common patterns for their business model

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
