Who owns which function — backed by evidence, not vibes.

Forget the feature-comparison spreadsheet you’d build by hand. ScanGap maps every competitor to the functions they actually own, each verdict linked to the real install and review data behind it.

// the problem

A feature checklist tells you who claims a function — not who owns it.

Hand-built competitor grids are a checkbox per feature: present or absent. But “has the feature” and “owns the market for it” are completely different things.

Checkboxes hide who actually wins

Five apps can all “have” a feature. Only one has the installs, ratings and reviews that make it the default choice. The checkbox doesn’t show that.

Manual research goes stale instantly

A spreadsheet you built last quarter is already wrong. Leaders move, ratings shift, new entrants land — and your map doesn’t.

Marketing copy isn’t evidence

Landing pages claim everything. Without install counts and review volume, you’re comparing promises, not positions.

A competitor map you can actually trust

Every cell is a position, and every position links to the proof.

01

Crawl every competitor in the niche

ScanGap pulls every public app — installs, ratings, review volume, pricing, last-updated — so the field is complete and current, not curated.

02

Attribute each function to an owner

A transparent score decides who actually owns a function vs. who merely lists it. Won, Contested or Open — per function, per competitor.

03

Verify any call against the apps

Every cell links to the listings behind it. Don’t trust the verdict — open the apps and check it. The evidence is one click away.

// what you’ll see

Who owns what — and the one column nobody holds.

The red rows are owned and defended. The contested row is up for grabs. The open row is the function every competitor skipped — and the position you could take.
