Compare on: target customer, pricing, key features, strengths, weaknesses and positioning. Show it as a table, then write a 5-line summary of where I can win and where I should not compete. If you are unsure about a fact, say so instead of guessing.

What you will get

A table comparing your product with three competitors on customer, pricing, features, strengths, weaknesses and positioning, followed by five lines on where you can win and where not to compete.

Common mistake

The prices and features are out of date or guessed.

Fix: Treat every cell as a lead to check. Open each competitor’s own pricing page and correct the table, as the tip on this page says.

Also watch for

Your own product is described in general terms only. Paste your real features and price into the product box. The comparison can only be fair to what it knows.
The summary says you can win everywhere. Reply “name two places I should not compete, and why, honestly”. A good analysis has no-go areas.

Try a variation: one rival in depth

After the table, pick one rival and send “now write a one-page deep dive on this competitor: who loves them, who leaves them and why”. Depth often beats a wide table.

Still not right? Reply with this

Mark every price or feature you are not sure about with a question mark, and rewrite the summary to include two areas where I should not compete.
