What Competitors To Include In The Competitors List ...

1 pointsby ketanbalmost 15 years ago
I am looking forward to apply in next round of Y-combinator program.<p>The product I am working on doesn’t have any direct competitor but there are many indirect competitors. The product I am working on would drastically reduce app developer's time to bring their products into market. Companies would be able to eliminate 3-4 people's work and would save about 300-500K per year.<p>Indirect competitors don’t have similar product and don’t improve developer’s productivity at all. But developers can still use competitor’s product and add all remaining missing functionality themselves by adding 3-4 more resources.<p>Whenever someone asks about competitors, would you: 1. Name these indirect competitors and explain why we are different and good? 2. Simply say no competitors at all.<p>I would like to get some feedback about how would you go about it?<p>Thanks,
