I want to know who's shipping competing products in my space

A mapped competitive landscape with company intel, positioning, and whatever prior DOS work already touched the space.

A mapped competitive landscape — who ships, what they ship, how they position it, and whatever prior DOS work already touched the space.

The prompt

Paste this into Claude Code
$ Who's shipping local-first AI operating systems for founders? Map the landscape and flag anyone I should watch closely.

What the Algorithm does

Research runs a multi-agent sweep to find the companies. Investigation's OSINT workflow pulls company intel on each hit — funding, team, recent shipping cadence. ContextSearch checks prior DOS sessions so the Algorithm never re-researches what you already investigated last month.

What you'll see
$ ♻︎ Entering the DOS ALGORITHM… (v0.0.1) ═════════════🗒️ TASK: Map competitive landscape in my space━━━ 👁️ OBSERVE ━━━ 1/7🔎 REVERSE ENGINEERING:• Wants: real shipping competitors, positioning, watchlist• Not wanted: dead projects, generic AI tool lists💪🏼 EFFORT LEVEL: Extended | Multi-source landscape discovery🏹 CAPABILITIES SELECTED:• ContextSearch — recall any prior landscape work• Research (Extensive) — 12-agent parallel sweep• Investigation (OSINT) — company intel on each hit━━━ ⚡ EXECUTE ━━━ 5/7ContextSearch surfaces 2 prior sessions touching adjacent space. Research finds 9 live contenders. Investigation pulls funding, team size, and shipping cadence for each.━━━ ✅ VERIFY ━━━ 6/7Every company has a verified URL, a last-shipping-activity signal, and a positioning one-liner.✓ Done. 9 competitors mapped, 3 tagged as watch-closely.

What you get back

A landscape table: company, one-line positioning, funding stage, last shipping signal, and a watch-closely flag. Underneath the table, a short "what's actually new" section calling out any product primitives you don't currently have. Prior DOS sessions on the topic are linked so you can see what's changed since you last looked.

Variations

  • Deeper investigation on the top 3, pull team backgrounds
  • Focus only on companies funded in the last 12 months
  • Map only the open-source contenders, not commercial ones
  • Save the landscape to MemPalace for future recall
