What it does
Closes the loop between competitor messaging and your own. After extracting the strategic themes competitors emphasized on their calls, it loads your company's current positioning pillars and runs a gap analysis: which competitor themes have no counterpart in our messaging, where we overlap, and where we are uniquely positioned. The output is a decision-ready gap report rather than a raw theme dump.
When to use it
When marketing or product strategy needs to know whether the category conversation is moving away from your current narrative — and which whitespace or blind spots to address in the next planning cycle.
How it works
- 1An analyst manually starts the run for a chosen quarter.
- 2Firecrawl scrapes the tracked competitors' transcripts.
- 3OpenAI extracts the competitor theme set with supporting quotes.
- 4The flow loads our own positioning pillars from a Coda doc.
- 5A comparison step labels each theme as overlap, competitor-only gap, or our-unique-strength.
- 6The gap report is written back to Coda and a summary is emailed to the strategy distribution list.
