Data Analysis

Competitor Analysis

A multi-platform benchmarking tool that leverages NLP to generate actionable insights from competitor reviews and public data.

The Challenge

Businesses often struggle to manually track competitor pricing, feature updates, and customer sentiment across multiple platforms. This fragmented data leads to delayed strategic decisions and missed opportunities in the market. The goal was to build an automated pipeline that ingests messy web data and outputs clean, structured strategic insights.

The Solution

I developed a Python-based scraping engine combined with OpenAI's GPT-4 API to categorize sentiment and extract feature requests from thousands of user reviews. The data is visualized in a real-time Streamlit dashboard, allowing stakeholders to instantly see where they stand against the competition.
