research-competitors

Run ui-capture on each reachable competitor product and ui-teardown for the flow and feature read, then file one finding block per player citing the captured shots. Changelogs and release notes supply dated evidence of cadence and direction.

Valid sources include captured screens and teardowns, published changelogs, official documentation and pricing pages, filings and funding records, and dated press that names its sources. Unmaintained third-party comparison tables and undated screenshots fail the quality bar.

Competitor research profiles the companies, their capabilities, and how the market moves. Solution-space research inventories the answers customers actually use, including spreadsheets and workarounds, and customer reviews stay with that domain rather than being duplicated.

Yes. A platform that could add the capability as a feature is treated as a competitor even without a product today, and the entry states what would have to be true for them to enter the market.

Unreachable competitors, such as products behind a sales call, are recorded as named gaps in the output. The gap is written down explicitly rather than filled with unattributed claims.
