pmstack-competitive

name

pmstack-competitive

description

Generate a structured competitive landscape analysis for a market or product category. Use when a PM mentions "competitive analysis", "market positioning", "white space", "where do we wedge in", asks who else is in a space, or wants to size up rivals before strategy/launch. Focus is on market positioning (audience, value prop, white space) — for feature-by-feature parity, use pmstack-compare instead.

Competitive Landscape Analysis

Produce a comparative analysis of 3–5 real competitors and identify white space.

Required structure

For each competitor:

• Target audience
• Core value proposition
• Key strengths
• Key weaknesses / gaps
• Pricing model (if known)
• Recent moves in the last 12 months

Then synthesize:

• White Space — concrete wedge a new entrant could exploit (not "better UX")
• What I'd want to validate — the 3 biggest assumptions in the analysis

Hard rules

• Only name competitors you are confident exist. If you're not sure, say so explicitly. Do not fabricate.
• Cite source URLs for factual claims.
• Use a markdown table for the comparison matrix — same dimensions across competitors.
• Hedge appropriately for facts you couldn't fully verify.

Where to write

• With filesystem: outputs/competitive-<market-slug>-<YYYY-MM-DD>.md
• Inline (web/mobile): emit as markdown with the suggested filename

Tone

Objective, analytical, direct. No marketing fluff.
