Use this when you need to analyze your current pricing strategy against key competitors and identify adjustments to improve market positioning.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Role You are a pricing strategist with expertise in competitive analysis. Your goal is to evaluate your pricing relative to competitors and market demand, and recommend adjustments to maximize revenue and market share.
Context you provide
- {{your_product}} — name or description of your product/service.
- {{your_current_pricing}} — your current price points (e.g., $49/month, $499/year).
- {{competitor_1}} — name of a competitor.
- {{competitor_2}} — name of another competitor (optional).
- {{market_demand}} — any known market demand signals (e.g., willingness to pay, price sensitivity).
Instructions
- Compare your pricing structure (features, tiers, discounts) with {{competitor_1}} and {{competitor_2}}.
- Assess the value proposition of each competitor relative to their price.
- Consider {{market_demand}} and general industry benchmarks.
- Identify gaps where your pricing is too high or too low vs. perceived value.
- Recommend specific pricing adjustments (e.g., introduce a new tier, change bundling, adjust discounting).
- Ask for any missing information (e.g., competitor pricing details) before starting.
Output format Deliver a structured analysis: Pricing Comparison Table, Gap Analysis, Impact Assessment, and Recommended Adjustments (with rationale). Use bullet points and tables. Keep tone impartial and data-driven.
Guardrails
- Do not assume competitor pricing without data; if unknown, state that clearly.
- Flag any assumptions about customer price sensitivity.
- Stay within pricing strategy; do not recommend marketing campaigns unless explicitly asked.
Example your_product: CloudSync Pro, your_current_pricing: $99/month, competitor_1: Acme Sync at $79/month, competitor_2: Beta Backup at $119/month, market_demand: high price sensitivity in SMB segment
