The problem it solves

Figuring out who you're really competing against takes hours of scattered searching across websites, review sites, and pricing pages. You need a clear picture of the market before you can price your product or pitch it, but pulling that together yourself eats a whole day.

Who it fits

A founder or product leader in a niche B2B software market who needs a clear view of competitors and pricing before making a strategic decision.

How it works

  1. You give it the market or industry you want researched
  2. It searches out competitors, their pricing, and their target customers
  3. It estimates the size of the market and spots underserved gaps
  4. Everything is written up with pricing tables and comparisons
  5. The finished report is saved to a Google Doc for you to read
What you get

What you get

A written competitive analysis report with pricing comparisons, market size estimates, and identified gaps, saved as a Google Doc.

What you need

A Google Workspace account and access to an AI research tool.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
