Competitive Signal Sweep
Find every mention of competitors or alternatives across your recent communications — before a renewal, pitch, or strategy review.
The prompt
Search my emails and Teams messages from the last 90 days. Find every mention of a competitor, alternative solution, or vendor comparison — including company names, product names, and phrases like "evaluating alternatives", "looking at other options", "comparing with", "also talking to". For each mention: - What was said and by whom - The date and context - Whether it was raised by a customer, colleague, or external party - Whether there is any follow-up or resolution in the thread Do not infer — only surface explicit mentions. Do not send or post anything.
