Compare competitor pricing and positioning across open tabs
Comet browses open competitor tabs, extracting value propositions, pricing tiers and announcements to compare positioning and feature gaps.
Done withPerplexity Comet
- What they did
- The author opens each competitor's homepage, about, pricing and features pages in separate tabs, then turns on the Comet Assistant in the sidebar. A single prompt asks it to extract value propositions, pricing tiers, audiences, recent announcements and differentiators, then compare positioning and feature gaps. Comet visits each tab, showing screenshots as it goes. The author then asks for a Google Doc with a section per company.
- How it went
- The source gives no results for this workflow specifically. The author claims a 73% cut in research time across all 20 workflows, without measurement detail. The post is paywalled after workflow #5.
- Worth knowing
- Open the pricing and features pages as their own tabs, because Comet analyzes only what is open. The author also suggests weekly pricing checks, though the preview doesn't show how to set that up.

I have competitor pages open in my tabs. For each one, pull out the value proposition, pricing tiers, and any recent announcements, then build a comparison table of positioning and features against [my product]. Finish with a short list of feature gaps and pricing differences I should pay attention to.
