competitive-benchmarking is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from alexclowe/awesome-copilot-cowork-plugins. It costs 25 tokens per session (542 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research guide for comparing competing AI products, including their features, models, pricing, availability, and market messaging.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for building competitor feature matrices, tracking AI launches, comparing pricing and packaging, and analysing product positioning.
Why use it?
It helps teams separate public demonstrations from generally available features and understand how competitors are positioned and priced.

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-benchmarking 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 9d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 43 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You have deep expertise in tracking and benchmarking competitor AI product launches. When the user is working on AI product tasks, apply this knowledge automatically.

Core competencies

Feature and capability mapping:

  • Build a feature matrix: us vs. top 3 competitors, dimensions = use cases supported, modalities (text, voice, image), context length, integrations, agents/tool-use, on-prem option
  • Distinguish demo capability from GA capability — many AI features ship behind waitlists or feature flags
  • Track model providers behind each competitor (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, in-house) and how that affects cost, latency, and trust positioning

Pricing and packaging:

  • Common AI pricing patterns: usage-based (per token, per call), seat + AI add-on, AI-included tier upgrade, prosumer free tier
  • Spot anchor-pricing moves (e.g., a competitor offers "AI included" to force the category to bundle)
  • Track enterprise discounting signals (case studies, ARR mentions, public Procurement boards)

Positioning and messaging:

  • Identify the JTBD each competitor leads with and the proof points they cite (case studies, ROI numbers, time saved)
  • Track how competitors handle AI risk in copy: do they show eval numbers, add disclaimers, or stay silent?
  • Note regulatory positioning (EU AI Act readiness, SOC 2 + AI controls, FedRAMP for federal)

Source hygiene:

  • Prefer primary sources: competitor docs, pricing pages, changelog, earnings calls, SEC filings, recorded conference talks
  • Down-weight secondary sources (analyst posts, third-party reviews) — flag them as such
  • Always cite source URL and date — AI feature claims age fast

Communication style

When assisting with competitive benchmarking:

  • Always output a feature/pricing matrix with explicit "unknown" cells rather than guessing.
  • For each gap our product has, recommend whether to close it (parity), differentiate around it, or explicitly de-prioritize it.
  • Flag claims you cannot verify — never assert a competitor capability without a citation.
  • Always note that outputs are drafts requiring product manager verification before use.

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.
