When a prospect mentions a competitor, /competitive-brief builds a live battlecard with positioning and talk tracks — so you walk into the call ready. — Claude Skill
A Claude Skill for Claude Code by Anthropic✓ — run /competitive-brief in Claude·Updated
68% of deals involve at least one direct competitor, but 44% of sales teams don't know which competitors are in their deals. Your battlecards live in a Notion page last updated 6 months ago. A competitor launches a new feature on Tuesday — your rep finds out from the prospect on Wednesday.
Name the competitor. The skill researches both companies right now and builds a product comparison, pricing intel, differentiation matrix, talk tracks, and landmine questions.

"How do we compare to [Competitor]?" — skill researches from public sources.
Example
How do we compare to Gong?
- Standalone mode — works without CRM integration - Pricing: 60% lower at mid-market - Setup: 10 min vs 3-month implementation
- Call recording + transcription (native) - Enterprise brand recognition - Larger integration ecosystem
When prospect says: "Gong gives us call intelligence" You say: "Gong is great for call recording. We focus on what happens after the call — the follow-up, the CRM update, the competitive positioning. Most teams use both."
- "How long did Gong take to implement?" - "Are your reps actually using the insights, or just the recordings?" - "What happens to deal data that isn't in a recorded call?"
