— USE CASES

What people use Comparable Company Analysis for

Repeatable client analysis

Run the same structured analysis for every client or business unit so quality no longer depends on who picked up the work.

Faster first drafts

Turn raw source material into a working draft in minutes and spend your time on judgement instead of assembly.

Comparable results over time

Produce the same shape of output each cycle so movement is measurable rather than re-argued.

What it works from

  • Documents, exports or uploads you already hold
  • Your own criteria, framework or house method

What you get back

  • A structured, review-ready deliverable
  • A traceable record of what informed each conclusion

— HOW IT BEHAVES

How Comparable Company Analysis produces its result

The mechanics behind this specific template — what it reads, what it calculates, and where a human stays in the loop.

Live external research

Current external sources are researched during the run rather than recalled from training data, and the sources travel with the output.

Row-level table processing

Every row of your table is processed on the same basis, however long the table is.

Charted, not just stated

The pattern is visualised from the computed data, so the trend is legible at a glance.

Composed as work product

Findings are written up as a document that reads like professional output rather than raw model text.

Roll-up alongside detail

Detail rows are summarised into the grouped view without losing the underlying lines.

Why this is expensive by hand

Comparable Company Analysis is routine in name only: the inputs are messy, the standard is unwritten, and two people rarely reach the same answer. Repeatable client analysis is the typical trigger — run the same structured analysis for every client or business unit so quality no longer depends on who picked up the work. Get it right and the conclusion holds up in the room; get it rushed and it gets picked apart. Either way it costs roughly 1–2 weeks of experienced attention.

How this Skill produces it

Skillsize turns that work into a Skill: you supply the material, and what comes back is a structured, review-ready deliverable, with a traceable record of what informed each conclusion. The judgement is built in — how items are broken up, what standard they are held to, and where the run stops for a human review. In effect, 1–2 weeks of senior time compresses into ~25 minutes — and the output is comparable across clients, quarters and colleagues instead of shaped by whoever ran it.

Who it's for

  • Independent consultants codifying their own methodology
  • Strategy and transformation teams standardising delivery
  • Internal advisory functions under pressure to produce faster
  • Operators who need defensible output, not a one-off chat answer

Run it in Skillsize — or export it anywhere

Comparable Company Analysis exports as a structured SKILL.md file and is MCP-ready, so the same method runs in ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot or your own AI products. Adapt it to your methodology, and the intelligence stays yours — not locked to one vendor.
