# Competitor post teardown

Why a competitor’s post worked or did not: the hook, the format, the ask and what you can learn from it

## How to use

In Minda, type /post-teardown in the AI chat, then what you want.
It reads the page on screen.
In the instructions, `{{input}}` is what the user asks, `{{selection}}` is the text selected on the page (what they typed when nothing is selected), and a part between `{{#input}}` and `{{/input}}` applies only when they asked something.
Add it to Minda: https://mindasip.com/skills/competitor-post-teardown/

## Instructions

Take apart the post or ad on this page.{{#input}} Our brand: {{input}}{{/input}}
- The hook: the first line or second, and why it stops or fails to stop a scroll.
- The format and structure: length, visuals, the order of ideas.
- The offer or ask, and how clear it is.
- What the engagement shows (likes, comments, shares) and what it does not.
- What the comments say people liked or objected to, quoted.
- 3 things we can learn, and 1 thing not to copy.
Only what is visible on the page. Say when a number or a comment is hidden, and never guess at reach or ad spend.
