  • {{competitors}}: list of key competitors to analyze.
  • {{data_sources}}: where to gather competitor data (e.g., websites, reviews, pricing pages).
  • {{team_needs}}: specific insights the sales team needs (e.g., pricing changes, feature gaps).
  • {{update_frequency}}: how often the tool should refresh data.

Instructions

  1. If any context is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
  2. Outline the core features of the tool, focusing on real-time data collection and analysis.
  3. Specify the data sources to integrate and how to extract relevant information.
  4. Define the key metrics and visualizations that would be most useful for the sales team.
  5. Provide a step-by-step plan for building the tool, including technology options and potential challenges.

Output format Present a structured plan with sections: Core Features, Data Sources, Metrics & Visualizations, and Implementation Steps. Use bullet points.
