When the user needs to evaluate competitors, understand the competitive landscape, or position their product against alternatives.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Competitive Analysis

## When to Use
Activate when a founder needs to analyze the competitive landscape, evaluate specific competitors, find differentiation opportunities, or prepare a competitive brief. Trigger phrases include "who are our competitors," "analyze this competitor," "competitive landscape," "how do we compare to X," "feature comparison," "what's our moat," or "differentiation opportunities." Also activate before fundraising (investors will ask) or when entering a new market segment.

## Context Required
- **From startup-context:** product description, target market, current positioning, key differentiators, pricing model, geographic scope.
- **From the user:** specific competitors to analyze (or request to identify them), market/industry segment to scope, the strategic question driving the analysis (positioning, pricing, feature gaps, market entry).

## Workflow
1. **Scope the market** -- Define the market boundaries, industry segment, and customer type. Precision here determines whether the competitive set is meaningful.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add maudeunfledged834/startup-founder-skills/competitive-analysis@sha256:a885cfef81046f66

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260403.b0c6483, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
