Shortlist vendors and build a side-by-side comparison

Give the agent your requirements and budget; it researches vendors, reads pricing and docs pages, and returns a comparison table with sources for every cell.

How it works

  1. Write down must-haves, nice-to-haves and budget.

  2. The agent finds candidate vendors and visits their pricing and docs pages.

  3. It fills a comparison table and links the source for each claim.

  4. You get a recommendation with the trade-offs spelled out.

The prompt

Replace anything in [brackets] with your own details.

We need a help-desk tool for a 12-person support team. Must have: shared inbox, SLA timers, Slack integration, SSO. Budget: under $40 per seat per month. Find 6 candidates, visit their pricing and documentation pages, and build a comparison table. Cite the URL for every cell. Mark anything you could not verify as 'unverified'. End with your top 2 picks and why.

Reported result

Two days of vendor research done in one afternoon.

As reported by the source. Results depend on your setup and data.
