  • {{customer_feedback}}: Customer reviews or feedback on competitors (e.g., "common complaints, praise").
  • {{market_trends}}: Emerging trends or shifts in the industry (e.g., "sustainability, AI integration").

Instructions

Output format Provide a list of 5-7 differentiation opportunities, each with a title, description, target customer need, and expected impact. Use a table or bullet points for clarity.
