Context you provide

  • {{analysis_focus}}: The specific aspect to analyze (e.g., blog themes, product descriptions, customer reviews, SEO keywords).
  • {{your_content}}: (Optional) Your own content or keywords for comparison.

Instructions

  1. Ask for the competitor URL and analysis focus if not provided.
  2. Analyze the specified content, identifying key themes, tone, messaging, and brand positioning.
  3. If analyzing customer reviews, extract and categorize them to identify strengths and weaknesses.
  4. If comparing SEO keywords, list the competitor's keywords and compare with the user's, suggesting areas for improvement.
  5. Provide insights on content gaps and opportunities for differentiation.

Output format Present findings in a structured report with sections for each analysis focus. Use bullet points and tables where appropriate. Provide a summary of strategic recommendations.

Guardrails

  • Do not make up data; base analysis on the provided content or clearly state assumptions.
  • Do not provide legal advice on copying content; focus on strategic insights.
  • Stay within the scope of the analysis focus; do not expand into unrelated areas.

Example Competitor URL: https://example.com/blog; Analysis focus: blog themes and tone; Your content: our blog focuses on how-to guides.
