Competitor Analysis
Structured side-by-side comparison of competing products. Designed for search + scrape; no interact needed for typical marketing/pricing pages.
When to use
- User names 2+ companies or products: "compare Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages"
- User names a category only: "best CDNs for edge functions" — search to discover the top 3–5 players, then analyze
- User asks for alternatives: "what are the alternatives to X?"
- User wants a feature matrix or positioning summary
Do NOT use for single-vendor deep-dives — use deep-research or structured-extraction instead.
Strategy
- Identify competitors.
- If the user listed them, use that list.
- Otherwise search once:
"top <category> providers 2026"or"<product> alternatives". Pick the 3–5 most-cited.
