Know exactly what your competitors are doing.
Lightspace Labs automatically discovers your competitors, analyzes them across five intelligence dimensions, and delivers continuously updated reports to your portal — without any manual research on your part.
From sign-up to intelligence in hours.
The platform runs automatically from the moment you sign up. Here's what happens behind the scenes.
Brand Research
Claude researches your brand — positioning, audience, products, and market context — to understand who your competitors should be.
Query Generation
AI generates search queries representing how your customers actually look for solutions like yours.
Visibility Scan
Queries run against Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Gemini. Every cited domain is logged with its citation frequency.
Competitor Extraction
Claude scores each cited domain for relevance — filtering out news sites, directories, and social platforms — and ranks the remainder.
Your Portal
You log in to a ranked list of competitor candidates. Star the ones you want to track. Full CI analysis begins immediately.
Five dimensions, one portal.
Each starred competitor is analyzed across five modules on a rolling schedule. All intelligence is available in your portal with side-by-side comparison views.
Citation Visibility
How often does each competitor appear in AI-generated search results compared to your own site? The citation visibility module runs your standard query set against Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Gemini daily — counting how often each starred competitor is cited vs. how often you are, broken down by engine and by query.
This is the fastest-moving signal in the CI suite. A competitor launching a content push or restructuring their site for GEO will show up here within days.
What you see
- Your citation rate vs. each competitor
- Breakdown by AI engine (Perplexity, ChatGPT, Gemini)
- Per-query breakdown — which queries favor competitors
- Top competitor domains by citation frequency
- Trend over time
Marketing Strategy
Every week, Claude fetches each competitor's homepage, about page, and blog content and extracts a structured marketing profile. This tells you how they're positioning their product, what audience they're targeting, which channels they're active on, and how their tone and messaging have shifted since last week.
Useful for spotting competitive pivots early — if a competitor shifts from SMB messaging to enterprise, you'll see it in their messaging pillars before it shows up in the press.
What you see
- Market positioning statement
- Tagline (current and historical)
- Messaging pillars — their key value claims
- Content themes and topic focus
- Tone (professional, casual, technical, etc.)
- Active marketing channels
Tech Stack Detection
Claude fetches the competitor's public HTML, response headers, and script sources — then interprets the signals to identify the technologies powering their site. No special access required; everything is decoded from what their site publicly exposes.
Useful for inferring their infrastructure costs, their team's technical choices, and which ad platforms, analytics tools, and chat systems they're investing in.
What you see
- Frontend framework (React, Vue, etc.)
- CMS (WordPress, Webflow, Contentful, etc.)
- Analytics platforms (GA4, Mixpanel, etc.)
- Ad platforms (Google Ads, Meta Pixel, etc.)
- Chat and support tools
- CDN and infrastructure signals
Pricing Intelligence
Claude checks each competitor's pricing and plans pages weekly, extracting a structured breakdown of every plan they offer. Price changes, new plan tiers, and feature adds or removals are all captured in the snapshot timeline.
If a competitor quietly drops their entry price or adds a free tier, you'll know within a week — not when a customer mentions it in a sales call.
What you see
- Whether they publish pricing at all
- Plan names, prices, and billing cadences
- Which plan is marked as 'most popular'
- Feature inclusions per plan
- Historical pricing snapshots for comparison
Product Deep-Dive
Key FeatureOnce a month, Claude runs an in-depth product analysis using vision — fetching product pages, features pages, and solutions pages, then encoding the top product screenshots as images and passing them to Claude Opus alongside the text content.
The result is a full hierarchical product outline: each product, the modules or sub-products within it, and the individual features — each with a name and description. Screenshots are linked inline alongside the relevant product or module.
This is the deepest competitive intelligence available without direct product access. It gives you a clear picture of the full breadth of a competitor's product surface — useful for identifying gaps in your own product, planning roadmap positioning, or preparing for competitive sales situations.
What you see
- Full product list with descriptions
- Module / subproject hierarchy per product
- Individual features with names and descriptions
- Product screenshots linked inline
- Video demos linked (YouTube, Vimeo, Wistia)
- Monthly snapshot timeline for change tracking
Everything in one place.
All CI intelligence surfaces in a clean client portal. Overview, competitor management, intelligence comparison views, and run history are organized into tabs so you can focus on what matters.
The Competitors tab shows pending candidates (auto-discovered) alongside your actively tracked competitors. Star or reject candidates, add competitors manually, and see the analysis status for each tracked competitor.
The Intelligence tab gives side-by-side comparison views for each module — a citation visibility bar chart per engine, a marketing strategy table, a tech stack grid, a pricing matrix, and a product outline accordion with screenshots.
Star to track. Unstar to pause.
Competitor candidates arrive with a Pending status — discovered by our AI but not yet costing you a tracked-competitor slot. You review the list and star the ones you want to follow.
Each plan has a cap on the number of starred competitors. Starring activates the full CI schedule for that competitor and claims one slot. If you hit your limit, you'll see an upgrade prompt.
Un-starring a competitor moves them to Paused — analysis stops but all historical data is retained. Their slot is freed immediately. Dismissed competitors move to Rejected and are hidden from the main view.
Competitor statuses
- PendingAuto-discovered, awaiting your review. Does not count against your plan limit.
- ActiveStarred and being tracked. Full CI analysis schedule runs on this competitor.
- PausedWas active but un-starred. Analysis paused; historical data retained. Slot freed.
- RejectedDismissed from the pending list. Hidden from main view; re-add manually if needed.
