What it does

Given an RFP and the buying agency, the agent researches probable competitors and their public positioning, then writes a strategy brief mapping each major requirement to a differentiation angle. The brief lands as a structured Notion page the team can pull from while drafting.

When to use it

Use it at proposal kickoff when you want a fast competitive read to shape win themes, rather than commissioning a manual market scan that takes days.

How it works

  1. 1A team member triggers the workflow manually with the agency name and RFP scope.
  2. 2The agent reads the RFP requirements and context from the source Notion page.
  3. 3Exa and Brave Search gather public information on likely competing vendors and their messaging.
  4. 4OpenAI synthesizes competitor strengths, weaknesses, and a per-requirement differentiation angle.
  5. 5The finished positioning brief is created as a new Notion page linked to the RFP workspace.
