Assembles scored competitor profile cards into an 8-section competitive analysis report with maps and a benchmarking matrix.

Use it when

  • Benchmark-methodology has already produced scored competitor profile cards
  • Presenting competitive findings to a founder, leadership team, or board
  • Need an auditable client deliverable with sourcing and methodology appendix
  • Building white-space/positioning strategy tied to a client's brand balance

Skip it if

  • You haven't run benchmark-methodology or competitive-platform-analysis first
  • You just need raw competitor data, not a structured strategic report
  • No positioning brief (strategic tension, brand balance, target quadrant) exists yet

# Competitive Report Structure

Use this skill to assemble scored competitor cards into a decision-grade report.
The report must answer three questions for the client: **who do we compete with,
how do we compete, and where is our defensible white-space?** Every section
earns its place by moving toward those answers — cut anything that doesn't.

## When to Activate

- All competitor profile cards from benchmark-methodology are complete and ready to assemble.
- Need to present competitive findings to a founder, leadership team, or board.
- The report must drive decisions (who to compete with, how, where the moat is) — not just document the landscape.
- Preparing a client deliverable that must be auditable and defensible.

## Client positioning brief (establish first)

Before assembling the report, establish the client's positioning brief. It
supplies:

- **Strategic tension** — the paired axes (e.g., memorability × hireability)
  that define the client's target white-space. All maps and synthesis resolve
  back to this tension.
- **Brand balance** — the intended proportional mix of the client's strategic
  emphases (e.g., 60% strategy/evidence, 25% distinctiveness, 15% craft).
  Every recommendation must be checked against this balance; flag any that
  would shift it.
- **Differentiator** — the framing principle for the executive summary and
  white-space section.
- **Target quad
