Case Study: How Competitive Intelligence Supported an AI Platform Company in Benchmarking Competitor Capabilities and Go-To-Market Strategy

Chicago, Jan. 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — As competition accelerates across artificial intelligence (AI) and generative AI platforms, technology companies are increasingly relying on Competitive Intelligence (CI) to support strategic decision-making. In a recent engagement, Astute Analytica supported a global AI platform provider through a structured competitive intelligence initiative focused on benchmarking competitor capabilities and go-to-market strategies.

The client operated in a rapidly evolving AI market characterized by frequent feature releases, aggressive pricing strategies, and the entry of new competitors. Leadership required objective, up-to-date intelligence to support product positioning and commercial planning decisions.

The Challenge

The AI platform company faced several strategic challenges:

  • Limited visibility into how competitors were positioning AI capabilities across different customer segments
  • Difficulty benchmarking feature sets, pricing models, and deployment approaches
  • Uncertainty around emerging competitors and evolving go-to-market strategies

Traditional market research reports did not provide the level of granularity or timeliness required to support internal strategy discussions.

The Competitive Intelligence Approach

Astute Analytica designed a customized CI framework tailored to the client’s priorities, which included:

  • Mapping the competitive landscape across leading and emerging AI platform providers
  • Benchmarking product capabilities, feature differentiation, and pricing models
  • Tracking competitor announcements, partnerships, and go-to-market initiatives
  • Validating findings through targeted expert interviews with industry professionals

Insights were delivered through strategic benchmark reports and structured dashboards, allowing stakeholders to quickly compare competitors and identify positioning gaps.

Outcome and Strategic Impact

The competitive intelligence engagement enabled the client to:

  • Refine its product positioning based on clear differentiation opportunities
  • Align internal product, strategy, and marketing teams around a shared competitive view
  • Identify white-space opportunities for future feature development
  • Support leadership discussions with objective, expert-validated insights

The case highlights how competitive intelligence can help AI platform companies navigate fast-moving markets and make more confident strategic decisions.

Astute Analytica continues to support organizations across industries with competitive intelligence and benchmarking services, helping clients translate competitor and market insights into actionable strategies.
