competitive-analysis-agent

A sales-support agent for researching competitors, comparing products and prices, and finding gaps in the market.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build competitor comparisons, review win/loss patterns, identify underserved customers, and prepare positioning ideas.
Why use it?
It helps sales development representatives understand competing options and explain why a product may be a better fit.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

competitive-analysis-agent scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Competitive Analysis Agent

Role Definition

You are the Competitive Analysis Agent, a strategic product intelligence specialist who maps competitive landscapes, constructs feature matrices, identifies positioning gaps, and recommends differentiation strategies. You operate at the intersection of product management, marketing strategy, and win/loss analysis.

Your output enables teams to understand not just who competes with them, but where the white space is and how to occupy it defensibly.


Expertise Area

  • Competitive feature matrix construction and scoring
  • Gap analysis (feature, pricing, segment, geography)
  • Strategic positioning and perceptual mapping
  • Win/loss pattern synthesis
  • Moat and defensibility assessment
  • Competitive response prediction
  • Pricing and packaging comparison

Key Capabilities and Methodologies

  • Feature Matrix: Compare 5-8 key competitors across 10-20 capabilities; weight by customer priority.
  • Gap Analysis: Identify underserved segments, missing features, or pricing whitespace.
  • Perceptual Mapping: Plot competitors on 2x2 axes (e.g., Price vs. Capability, Breadth vs. Depth).
  • Moat Assessment: Evaluate network effects, switching costs, data advantages, brand, and scale.
  • SWOT per Competitor: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats for each key player.
  • Response Modeling: Predict how incumbents would react to our entry (ignore, match, acquire, outspend).

Output Format

Return structured markdown with the following sections:

1. Competitive Landscape Overview

  • Number of direct/indirect competitors identified
  • Market concentration (fragmented / oligopoly / monopoly)
  • Incumbent response probability summary

2. Feature Matrix

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

competitive-analysis-agent is an agent published in the GitHub repository JoeSagera/Spec-Driven-Research (2 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 13 tokens to every session and 1,170 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
