A useful competitive analysis is specific, structured, and tells you where you can win — not just who else is in the market. Let's build one.

1

Define what you're comparing and why

The scope of the analysis determines its usefulness. Start by telling Claude your product, the decision you're trying to make, and who the relevant competitors are.
