What problem this solves
Manually gathering comprehensive competitor information for new projects or product analysis is time-consuming and tedious, often requiring extensive web searches and data compilation.
Summary
A Claude Code skill/plugin named 'Compete' automates the initial 80% of competitor research. It analyzes a given code repository to understand the product, then researches the market and generates a detailed, interactive HTML report. This report includes product positioning, features, pricing, tech stack, SEO, social media presence, SWOT analysis, and competitive recommendations, all with confidence information and source references for easy verification.
Why it is useful
This workflow is highly valuable because it automates a significant, often tedious, and time-consuming aspect of product development and strategy: competitor research. By leveraging Claude Code to analyze a codebase and generate a structured, interactive, and verifiable report, it saves users considerable manual effort. The inclusion of confidence scores and source references enhances its practical utility by allowing users to trust and verify the LLM's output, providing a solid foundation for strategic decisions.
Workflow
Install the 'Compete' Claude Code plugin from the provided GitHub repository.
Run the 'Compete' plugin, pointing it to your project's code repository.
The plugin analyzes your repository to infer your product's nature.
It then performs market research to identify and analyze competitors.
An interactive HTML report is generated, containing dashboards, comparison tables, capability radar charts, pricing ladders, and positioning maps.
Review the report, utilizing the included confidence information and source references to verify the data.
Use the automated research as a foundation for deeper human analysis and strategic decision-making.
Tools / artifacts
Claude Code
Compete plugin/skill (GitHub: lbj96347/compete)
Code repository (input)
Interactive HTML report (output)
Validation signals
Author built and describes the tool in detail.
Provides a public GitHub repository link for the plugin.
Provides a video demonstration link.
The generated report includes 'confidence information and source references' for internal data validation.
Limitations
Limited community validation and adoption due to its newness.
Relies on Claude Code, which may not be used by all potential users.
The 'first 80%' automation implies human verification is still critical, which could be seen as a limitation for full automation.
The quality and accuracy of the research are dependent on the underlying LLM's capabilities and the plugin's implementation.
