WORKFLOW / RESEARCH COMPETITORS

# AI competitor research. Your own point of view.

A useful competitor brief should help you see what is missing from your explanation, not become a blueprint for duplicating someone else.

STARTING BOUNDARY

## Keep the first step useful.

Keep research bounded and source-linked. Do not infer private performance or copy another company's claims as your own.

START SMALL. BUILD FROM THERE.

## A useful first job. Not a giant transformation.

Tell us what needs doing. We will start with a goal, a boundary, and a way to judge the result.

BEFORE THE FIRST WORKFLOW

## Questions worth asking first.

**What should a competitor research brief contain?**

The proposed brief records the sources, the relevant observations, gaps in the evidence, and a recommendation for an original next step. It should not present guesses as measured demand.

**Will the agent claim it knows a competitor's traffic?**

Not without an identified data source and a clear explanation of its limitations. Estimates should remain labeled as estimates.

CONNECTED WORK

## The next useful connection.
