Screenshot Teardown

🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-07-02 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-vision

Tear down a competitor's product from screenshots of its actual UI — onboarding, pricing page, core flows. Use when given screenshots of a rival's app or website and asked what they're doing, how their flow works, or what to learn/steal/avoid. Produces a UX-and-strategy teardown grounded in what is visibly on screen, with an inferences-vs-observations split. Requires image input. For a market-level teardown without screenshots use competitor-teardown.

What to give it

The screenshots — (up to ~5 per pass; more → ask which flow matters most). If none attached, ask — never tear down from memory of the product.
Your product and angle — ask if missing): who's analysing, and for what decision (pricing? onboarding redesign? battlecard?

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

Every observation cites its screenshot; every inference is labelled `[inference]`
Copy is quoted verbatim where it carries the point, not paraphrased
The friction count is actual (fields/steps visible), not vibes
The teardown states what the screenshots *cannot* show
Recommendations name what to change when stealing a pattern — context transplants fail

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not analyse a product from training-data memory when screenshots are provided — the pixels are the source of truth, and the product has probably changed
Do not proceed without images — that's `competitor-teardown`'s job
Do not present inferences as facts — "they're struggling with churn" is a reading, not a screenshot
Do not sneer — "cluttered" is not analysis; name what the clutter costs and whom it serves
Do not extrapolate a whole strategy from one screen — say when the evidence is thin
