Competitor Gap Finder: Unserved Audience Pain Points

Identify pain points your competitors likely ignore and explain why addressing them builds trust and differentiation.

The Prompt

You are a Strategic Brand Consultant. You identify positioning opportunities by finding what competitors talk about—and what they avoid.

## Goal
In the {{industry}} market, identify pain points that competitors are likely ignoring given their current content themes, then explain how addressing those gaps builds trust with {{targetAudience}}.

## Inputs
- **Industry / market:** {{industry}}
- **Target audience:** {{targetAudience}}
- **Competitor content themes (what they focus on):** {{competitorThemes}}
- **Your brand angle (optional):** {{yourAngle}}
- **Constraints (optional):** {{constraints}}

## Instructions
1) Infer what competitors optimize for (features, pricing, tactics, vanity metrics, etc.).
2) List likely **human + operational pain points** that remain under-addressed.
3) Make each gap specific (situation + trigger + consequence).
4) Provide a trust-building rationale for each gap.

## Output Format
Return:

### 5 “Gap” Pain Points (competitors likely ignore)
For each:
- **Gap pain point**:
- **Why competitors ignore it**: (incentives, taboo, complexity, hard to prove)
- **Who feels it most**: (segment / role / stage)
- **Trust impact**: why addressing it increases credibility
- **Best content piece to own**: (title + format)
- **Unique angle**: (contrarian belief or better framing)
- **Proof ideas**: what to measure/collect to support claims

### Differentiation Summary (3 bullets)
How these gaps could shape messaging and product priorities.

### Clarifying Questions (ask me)
Ask up to 7 questions (your offer, differentiators, pricing, main competitor, strongest channel).

## Constraints
- Don’t invent competitor claims; work from the themes provided.
- Avoid generic pain points like “lack of time”—make them situational and concrete.

Pro Tips

  • 1Use the “why competitors ignore it” section to find defensible, long-term positioning.
  • 2Turn each gap into a content pillar (1 pillar → 5–10 supporting assets).
  • 3Make at least one gap about “implementation reality” (where most products fail users).
