Taskade Genesis puts an AI research agent to work before every proposal — it scans competitor pricing, positioning, and recent news, then delivers a competitive briefing that sharpens your pitch and strengthens your differentiators. ## What Is Proposal Competitor Research Automation? It's a pre-proposal intelligence workflow where an agent uses web search (one of 33 built-in tools) to gather current information about the competitors your prospect is likely evaluating. The findings populate a competitive context section inside your proposal workspace, ready to inform your drafting. ## Why Use Proposal Competitor Research Automation?
