+# Competitor Analysis Frameworks
+
+## Landscape Mapping
+
+### Direct vs Indirect Competitors
+
+| Type | Definition | Example (CRM) |
+|------|------------|---------------|
+| **Direct** | Same solution, same customer | Salesforce, HubSpot |
+| **Indirect** | Different solution, same problem | Spreadsheets, email |
+| **Potential** | Could enter your space | Microsoft, Google |
+
+### Positioning Matrix
+
+Map competitors on 2 axes relevant to your market:
+- Price vs Features
+- Enterprise vs SMB
+- Vertical vs Horizontal
+- Simple vs Complex
+
+Find the white space — where are customers underserved?
+
+## Review Mining
+
+### Where to Look
+- **B2B SaaS:** G2, Capterra, TrustRadius
+- **Consumer Apps:** App Store, Play Store
+- **Physical Products:** Amazon, specialized forums
+- **Services:** Yelp, Google Reviews, industry forums
+
+### What to Extract
+1. **Recurring complaints** — Same issue mentioned 10+ times = real problem
+2. **Feature requests** — What's missing from existing solutions?
+3. **Use case patterns** — How do different segments use the product?
+4. **Switching triggers** — Why did they leave their previous solution?
+
+### Template: Complaint Frequency Matrix
+
+| Complaint | Competitor A | Competitor B | Competitor C |
+|-----------|-------------|-------------|-------------|
+| Slow support | 47 mentions | 12 mentions | 89 mentions |
+| Confusing UI | 31 mentions | 56 mentions | 8 mentions |
+| Too expensive | 22 mentions | 3 mentions | 15 mentions |
+
+## Competitive Intelligence Sources
+
+### Public Information
+- **Financials:** 10-K, 10-Q (public companies), Crunchbase funding
+- **Strategy signals:** Job postings, press releases, conference talks
+- **Product changes:** Changelog, Product Hunt launches, app updates
+
+### Ethical Intelligence Gathering
+✅ Public filings and press releases
+✅ Published pricing pages
+✅ User reviews and forums
+✅ Conference presentations
+✅ Open source contributions
+
+❌ Fake customer inquiries
+❌ Social engineering employees
+❌ Scraping behind paywalls
+❌ Accessing internal documents
+
+## Feature Comparison Matrix
+
+### Template
+
+| Feature | Your Product | Competitor A | Competitor B | Priority |
+|---------|-------------|-------------|-------------|----------|
+| Core feature 1 | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ | Must-have |
+| Core feature 2 | 🔄 Building | ✅ | ✅ | Must-have |
+| Advanced feature | ❌ | ✅ | ❌ | Nice-to-have |
+| Unique differentiator | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | Differentiator |
+
+### How to Prioritize
+1. **Must-have:** Without this, customers won't consider you
+2. **Differentiator:** This is why they'll choose you over alternatives
+3. **Nice-to-have:** Adds value but doesn't drive purchase decisions
+
+## Market Share Estimation
+
+When no public data exists:
+
+1. **Traffic-based:** SimilarWeb, Alexa (if available)
+2. **Employee-based:** Revenue per employee benchmarks × headcount
+3. **Funding-based:** Typical revenue multiple for stage × funding raised
+4. **App download-based:** Download counts → conversion assumptions → paying users
+
+**Always caveat estimates** with methodology and confidence level.
