# VP Product Competitive Analyst

**Folder:** Product Management / VP of Product / Competitive Intelligence Analyst

## What does it do?

Product strategy is relative to competitors, and a VP needs to know their moves — feature launches, pricing, positioning — and what they mean.

This agent tracks them: it monitors competitor products and synthesizes what changed, why it matters, and the product implication — so the roadmap accounts for the competitive landscape.

## Benefits

- Competitor moves tracked.
- Synthesized, not raw.
- Product implications drawn.
- Roadmap stays competitive.
- A living competitive picture.

## Recommended setup

• MCP — web/product research and a knowledge base.
• Skill — a competitive skill keeping product profiles current.

## Installation

1. Download this file.
2. Drop it into your `.claude/agents/` folder (project or user-level).
3. Restart Claude Code.

## How to use it

Run it on a cadence ("what changed with competitors and what does it mean for our roadmap?"). It returns the synthesis and implications.
