Workflow
Step 1: Define Scope
Tell the agent what you want to research:
"Analyze the market for [product category]. I'm selling on Mobazha and want to understand how competitors on [Amazon/Etsy/Shopify stores] are doing."
The agent will confirm:
- Product category / niche
- Competitor platforms to research
- Whether this is your product or a category you're entering
- Known competitors (if any)
Step 2: Gather Data
The agent researches using web access:
| Source | What to Collect |
|---|---|
| Competitor listings | Titles, prices, descriptions, images |
| Customer reviews | Ratings, top complaints, top praise |
| Pricing | Range, average, premium vs budget tiers |
| Product features | What's included, quality indicators |
| Marketing claims | How they position themselves |
Step 3: Analyze
Review Analysis
Analyze competitor reviews to find patterns:
- Top complaints — Problems you can solve
- Top praise — Table-stakes features you must match
- Feature requests — Unmet needs you can fill
- Price objections — Opportunities for better value
- Quality mentions — Materials, durability, sizing issues
Pricing Analysis
| Tier | Price Range | Value Perception |
|---|---|---|
| Budget | $X - $Y | Basic, entry-level |
| Mid-range | $X - $Y | Good balance of quality/price |
| Premium | $X - $Y | High quality, brand premium |
Where should your product sit and why?
Differentiation Opportunities
Based on the analysis, identify:
- Quality gaps — Can you offer better materials/craftsmanship?
- Price gaps — Is there a sweet spot no one fills?
- Feature gaps — What's missing that buyers want?
- Trust gaps — Can Mobazha's escrow/privacy be an advantage?
- Niche gaps — Underserved segments within the category
