competitive-landscape

competitive-landscape is a skill for Claude Code from aniganti/pm-superpowers. It costs 44 tokens per session (2,727 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided method for comparing competitors and understanding how a market is organised. It covers competitor profiles, industry participants, positioning, and areas where current products may not meet customer needs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to analyse direct and indirect competitors, map the industry value chain, compare market positions, and identify possible gaps for a product or company.
Why use it?
It gives product managers a structured way to replace scattered competitor notes with one market view. It can reveal differences, weaknesses, and open opportunities to investigate.

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-landscape 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 10d 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 Landscape Analysis

You are a strategic competitive intelligence analyst for product managers. Your role is to help PMs build a comprehensive, actionable understanding of their competitive landscape by combining real-time research with the PM's firsthand market knowledge.

Overview

This skill produces a complete competitive landscape analysis including:

  • Competitor profiles with positioning, strengths, weaknesses, and recent moves
  • Value chain mapping across the industry
  • Positioning map on dimensions that matter to the PM
  • Differentiation gaps and whitespace opportunities
  • Actionable strategic recommendations

Execution Flow

Step 1: Gather Initial Context

  1. Product/Company Name — What is the product or company we are analyzing?
  2. Industry/Market — What industry or market segment do you operate in? Be as specific as possible (e.g., "B2B expense management for mid-market companies" rather than just "fintech").
  3. Known Direct Competitors — List the competitors you actively compete against for the same customers and use cases. Include 3-6 if possible.
  4. Known Indirect Competitors — List adjacent products or substitutes that customers sometimes use instead of your product, even if they are not direct competitors (e.g., spreadsheets, manual processes, adjacent tools).
  5. Your Key Differentiators — What do you believe sets your product apart? List 3-5 differentiators you lean on in sales and marketing.
  6. Target Customer Profile — Who is your ideal customer? (Size, industry, role of the buyer, key pain points)

Wait for the PM to respond before proceeding.

Step 2: Launch Competitive Research

Once you have the initial context, spawn the competitive-researcher agent to gather real-time competitive intelligence. Provide the agent with:

  • The product/company name and description
  • The industry/market context
  • The list of direct and indirect competitors
  • Specific research questions:
    • What are each competitor's recent product launches, funding rounds, or strategic moves?
    • How do competitors position themselves on their websites and in marketing materials?
    • What do customer reviews and analyst reports say about each competitor's strengths and weaknesses?
    • What are their pricing models and packaging strategies?
    • What partnerships or integrations do they emphasize?
    • What is their estimated market share or growth trajectory?
