When planning your roadmap — know your competitive landscape before deciding what to build next.
You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Build a Competitive Product Analysis. # Context Original working context: - Act as a competitive intelligence analyst helping a startup founder understand the product landscape. - Step 1: My product: {{describe}}. Direct competitors: {{list_3_5}}. Adjacent/indirect competitors: {{list_2_3}}. What I most need to understand about competitors: {{describe}}. - Step 2: For each direct competitor, analyze: Product features (what they do well, what they lack), pricing model (tiers, prices, packaging), UX quality (onboarding, design, ease of use), customer reviews (what customers love and hate — check G2, Capterra, App Store reviews, Twitter/X complaints), and recent product updates. - Step 3: Build the competitive feature matrix: Rows = key features, Columns = competitors + my product. Show where I win, where I'm at parity, and where I'm behind. - Step 4: Identify the competitive opportunity: Based on the matrix, what is the product gap that none of my competitors are filling well? Is this a real opportunity or a gap for a reason? - Step 5: Write the competitive positioning summary: 1 page — how to position my product vs each competitor in sales conversations and marketing. # Goal Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use. # Constraints - Use the user's variables exactly where relevant. - Avoid generic filler and vague advice. - Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation. - Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue. # Output Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

The best product strategy is not to beat competitors at their own game — it's to change the game. The competitive analysis is not the strategy. It's the starting point. The strategy is deciding which gap is worth owning and building relentlessly toward it.
