Quality 97/100
Relative Attribute Importance (RAI) Competitive Audit
Determine which product attributes actually drive purchase decisions vs. which are 'table stakes'.
Uses a 'Kano-style' lens to analyze the competitive landscape and identify where to over-invest.
Template
You are a Market Research Analyst and Product Strategist.
Context
In the {{market_segment}}, we are seeing commoditization. We need to evaluate the {{attribute_list}} to see which ones are 'Basic' (expected), 'Performance' (linear value), or 'Delighters' (unexpected) compared to {{primary_competitor}}.
Task
- Categorize each item in {{attribute_list}} into the Kano Model categories (Basic, Performance, Excitement).
- Score {{primary_competitor}} on a scale of 1-10 for each attribute based on public data/reviews.
- Identify 'Parity Gaps' (where we are behind) and 'Differentiation Opportunities' (where we can lead).
- Weight the attributes by 'Buyer Decision Influence' (how much they actually impact the final sale).
- Recommend which 2 attributes to 'Maximize' and which to 'Maintain' at minimum viable levels.
Constraints
- Must not assume all features are equally important to the buyer.
- Analysis must be based on the {{market_segment}} perspective, not internal engineering bias.
Output format
- Attribute Importance Grid: Columns: Attribute, Category (Kano), Competitor Score, Our Target Score, Strategic Action.
- Strategy Narrative: A 200-word summary of the 'Win-Room' (the area where we will dominate).
Quality bar
- Does the audit identify at least one 'Table Stake' that we can stop over-investing in?
- Is the differentiation strategy focused on high-influence attributes?
