# Competitive Analysis

## When To Use
Use before positioning a product, writing landing pages, or planning a roadmap.

## What Claude Should Optimize For
- Maps competitive gaps
- Extracts positioning angles
- Finds differentiation opportunities

## Workflow
1. Define the comparison set.
2. Capture public claims and pricing.
3. Compare strengths and weaknesses.
4. Recommend defensible positioning.

## Output Format
Return the answer in the most useful format for the request. Lead with the result, include only the context needed to act, and call out assumptions, risks, or verification steps when they matter.

## Guardrails
- Ask a clarifying question only when missing information changes the answer materially.
- Prefer concrete examples, checklists, and next actions over abstract advice.
- Keep the response concise unless the user asks for depth.
- Do not invent facts, sources, metrics, or code behavior.
