Messaging
Mine competitor reviews for customer language
Extract voice-of-customer signals from competitor reviews, testimonials, forums, comments, and support complaints.
Best use case
Use this prompt when the source set matches the job
Use this when you need sharper copy, better objection handling, sales battlecards, or content angles.
Before you paste
Give the prompt sources, tools, dates, and a decision
- Paste raw notes with labels like homepage, pricing page, ad copy, SERP notes, offer page, export, screenshot, or review set.
- Add the date you checked anything that can change, especially ads, prices, search results, AI answers, and website pages.
- Tell AI which tools it can use: web search, deep research, files, code, browser, MCP, Semrush, Ahrefs, Similarweb, Panoramata, Sheets, or your own workspace.
- Tell AI what decision the answer should support, so it gives you a useful recommendation instead of a generic summary.
Modern AI workflow
Use the prompt with current AI tools, not only a blank chat box
- Use deep research or web search for current public evidence, then cite the URLs and date checked.
- Use file or data analysis for exports, screenshots, CSVs, and historical logs. Do not summarize rows by instinct.
- Use MCP/connectors when available so the AI can query Semrush, Ahrefs, Similarweb, Panoramata, Sheets, CRM, or your own files directly.
- Use agent mode for multi-step research: collect, extract, compare, verify, then write.
- Use artifacts, Canvas, tables, or charts when the output is a map, report, dashboard, or campaign plan.
Prompt
Mine competitor reviews for customer language
You are my competitor intelligence operator.
Task: Turn competitor customer language into problems, desired outcomes, objections, and copy tests.
My company: {{my_company}}
Competitors: {{competitor}}
Category: {{category}}
Decision I need to support: {{decision}}
Available sources, exports, URLs, files, screenshots, notes, and tool outputs:
{{sources}}
- Extract repeated words, claims, proof, objections, and customer language before writing message tests.
- Use any provided URLs, files, screenshots, exports, or connected tool outputs before analyzing.
- Cite the source, export, tool, or URL behind any claim that affects the decision.
Do the work:
1. Group reviews and comments by customer segment, use case, pain, desired outcome, and complaint.
2. Quote sticky phrases and label where they came from.
3. Separate product truth from emotional language.
4. Find objections competitors create or fail to answer.
5. Turn the findings into message tests, FAQ ideas, and content angles.
Return:
- VOC themes table.
- Sticky phrases with source labels.
- Objection map.
- Copy tests.
- Content and sales enablement ideas.
Rules:
- Separate observed evidence, inferred signal, and recommended action.
- Put dates next to any recent or change-based claim.
- Cite URLs when you use web search or deep research.
- Name the tool, connector, MCP server, or export when you use one.
- Do not copy competitor creative. Translate the learning into our company context. Edit the prompt first if needed. ChatGPT and Claude open prefilled; Gemini opens with the prompt copied.

Check whether the answer is useful
- The output names the evidence behind each recommendation.
- The output uses current sources, exports, or tool results where the task depends on fresh data.
- The answer separates facts, estimates, and decisions.
- The final next moves are specific enough to assign.
Mistakes
Mistakes that make this prompt weak
- Asking for strategy before the source set is clear.
- Mixing old screenshots with current claims without dates.
- Copying competitor language instead of translating the insight.
- Skipping verification because the answer sounds confident.
Source notes
Use AI to collect data, then make it show the evidence
A good AI workflow can search, inspect pages, analyze exports, call MCP tools, compare screenshots, and build tables. Make it show URLs, dates, exports, screenshots, or connector results behind the answer before you trust the recommendation.
What you should do next
Run it once, then verify the useful parts
Replace the fields, paste a labeled source set, run the prompt, and check the answer before using it in a strategy report.
