PropSec Scaler
Competitive intelligence engine with strategic scoring — discovers what PropSec should build next
Tech Stack
About
PropSec Scaler is a competitive intelligence engine that answers one question: “What should we build next?” Unlike the Advantage Engine’s website-level analysis, Scaler analyses product capabilities across competitors to discover feature gaps and generate a prioritised backlog with strategic scoring.
The Pipeline
A six-phase methodology: Discover a competitor → Gather intelligence across 6 channels (features, changelogs, reviews, pricing, jobs, social) → Extract capabilities into structured feature cards → Analyse gaps against PropSec’s feature matrix → Generate prioritised backlog items → Strategise via the automated intelligence engine.
Web Dashboard (7 Pages)
| Page | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Dashboard | Pipeline stats, top priorities, coverage charts |
| Analyze | Run competitor analysis via Firecrawl + Gemini AI |
| Competitors | View all analysed competitors |
| Backlog | Full pipeline with 5-factor impact scoring (0-50) |
| Intelligence | Strategic Intelligence — SPS algorithm, Build Next, convergence, moat |
| Matrix | Feature comparison grid (PropSec vs competitors) |
| Brief | Intelligence brief summarising all sessions |
Strategic Priority Score (SPS)
Proprietary algorithm scoring every backlog item on a weighted formula:
- Impact (35%) — market demand × competitive urgency × revenue potential
- Convergence (25%) — pressure from multiple competitors building the same feature
- Effort Efficiency (25%) — implementation feasibility relative to value
- AI Amplification (15%) — how much AI can transform the feature beyond what competitors offer
The Intelligence page surfaces the top 3 “Build Next” recommendations, convergence alerts, AI opportunity windows, and competitive moat analysis.
Dual Interface
Scaler runs both as a web dashboard and as Claude Code skills — analysis can be triggered from the CLI with /scaler:analyze, and results flow into the same Neon Postgres database to appear on both interfaces. 30+ competitors tracked in the registry, prioritised by strategic value.
