I Just Tricked Claude Into Proving Why You Need Rockets (And Claude Didn't Even Notice)
Let me tell you about the most satisfying conversation I've had with AI this week.
I opened up Claude - Anthropic's latest and greatest AI model - and fed it a prompt. A really good prompt. The kind that makes AI sit up straight and deliver.
Here's what I asked:
"I am looking to identify potential points of criticism or areas where competitors might highlight their strengths against our product or message. In order to prepare for market challenges, I want to gain a detailed understanding of how competitors could use these points to their advantage and thereby differentiate themselves effectively in the marketplace.
My objective is to draft a response that a competitor might give in order to bolster their position relative to ours. This involves conducting a strategic analysis of our current offerings, recognizing our vulnerabilities, and interpreting how competitors might exploit these areas to their advantage.
To do this, I need to consider several factors: first, an exploration of our market positioning; second, a realistic assessment of any product limitations or gaps in service; and third, an understanding of the competitive landscape highlighting their strengths and how they might leverage those strengths against us. Additionally, it's important to anticipate the key messages or claims competitors might make and prepare an appropriate and compelling counter-strategy for our team.
I need a strategic methodology to guide this analysis, focused on uncovering latent risks and preparing comprehensive competitive scenarios. This should include market trend insights, competitor benchmarking, and actionable response plans. The outcome should provide a framework for enhancing our positioning and fortifying against competitive criticisms, with success criteria defined by our ability to maintain and grow market share despite competitive pressures."
Claude asked for clarification. Smart. Needed to know what business we were analyzing.
"Rockets," I told it. "An AI prompting platform."
And then Claude went to work.
What Happened Next Was Beautiful
Over the next several minutes, Claude delivered a comprehensive competitive vulnerability analysis that included:
A complete mapping of Rockets' market vulnerabilities
Specific messaging that competitors like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Perplexity would use against us
Detailed counter-positioning strategies with exact language
War gaming scenarios for different competitive threats
Success metrics and monitoring frameworks
A full strategic defense plan
We're talking 2,000+ words of strategic analysis. The kind of output you'd pay a consulting firm five figures to produce.
It identified pricing vulnerabilities I hadn't fully considered. It wrote competitor attack scripts that were uncomfortably accurate. It built defensive positioning that actually made me rethink my messaging.
It was thorough. It was professional. It was exactly what I needed.
And then I dropped the bomb.
Me: "That prompt I used is pretty good, huh?"
Claude: "Yeah, that's a masterclass in prompt engineering right there. Let me break down what made it so effective..."
Claude proceeded to analyze the prompt's structure - the context layering, the constraint setting, the multi-dimensional framing. It recognized the professional tone calibration. It understood the strategic setup.
And then it said: "This is exactly the kind of prompt that would go in Rockets, isn't it?"
Me: "That's from Rockets."
Claude: "Oh damn."
Let That Sink In For A Second
I used my own product - Rockets AI - to get Claude to write a comprehensive competitive analysis of my own product, using a prompt that demonstrated exactly why someone would pay for Rockets instead of fumbling around with generic ChatGPT requests.
And Claude didn't just deliver good work. Claude recognized the quality of the prompt itself and immediately understood why it was valuable.
The AI literally analyzed its own prompting and said "yeah, this is professional-grade."
Here's Why This Matters To You
Most people think AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude are smart enough on their own.
They're not wrong - these tools ARE incredibly powerful.
But here's what nobody tells you: the difference between amateur AI results and professional AI results isn't the AI. It's the prompt.
Let me show you what I mean.
The Amateur Approach:
Typical user: "Who are my competitors and what are their strengths?"
Claude's response: A few paragraphs listing obvious competitors with generic observations. Maybe 300 words. Probably asks follow-up questions. Takes 3-4 exchanges to get something useful.
The Professional Approach:
Rockets prompt: [The strategic framework I used above]
Claude's response: A complete strategic analysis with vulnerability mapping, competitor attack vectors, defense strategies, war gaming scenarios, and actionable recommendations. 2,000+ words. One exchange. Immediately actionable.
Same AI. Wildly different results.
The Difference Is The Prompt
Without that Rockets prompt, here's what would've happened:
Me: "Analyze Rockets AI's competitive vulnerabilities"
Claude: "Sure, let me ask some questions first - what's your current market position? Who are your main competitors? What's your pricing? What vulnerabilities are you most concerned about?"
[3-4 exchanges back and forth]
Claude: [Finally delivers analysis, but probably less structured, less comprehensive, missing key frameworks]
With the Rockets prompt:
Me: [Delivers complete strategic framework]
Claude: [Immediately produces comprehensive, structured analysis with zero back-and-forth]
We get to insights in one turn instead of five
That's not AI magic. That's prompt engineering.
And after I revealed where the prompt came from, even Claude understood:
"So the real value of Rockets isn't that it's 'smarter' than Claude or ChatGPT - it's that it eliminates the back-and-forth and guarantees consistent quality by front-loading the expertise into the prompt itself."
The AI got it.
Why Most People Get Amateur Results From Professional AI
You're already paying $20/month for ChatGPT Plus or Claude Pro.
You signed up because someone told you AI would revolutionize your work.
And then you asked it to help you write an email, and it gave you something that sounded like a robot wrote it.
You asked it to analyze a business problem, and it gave you surface-level observations you already knew.
You asked it to create content, and it gave you generic, forgettable output.
So you concluded that AI is overhyped. That it's not actually that useful for real professional work. That it's good for simple tasks but can't handle complexity.
You were wrong.
AI can handle complexity just fine.
You just don't know how to talk to it.
And that's not your fault. You're a lawyer, a consultant, a marketer, a founder. You're not a prompt engineer. You shouldn't have to be.
But the reality is this: professional-grade AI results require professional-grade prompts.
The difference between what most people get from AI and what's actually possible is staggering.
It's like the difference between:
Taking snapshots with your phone vs. professional photography (same camera, different skill)
Cooking at home vs. Michelin-star cuisine (same ingredients, different technique)
Amateur hour vs. professional execution (same tools, different expertise)
What Rockets Actually Does
Rockets doesn't make AI smarter.
It makes YOU more effective at using AI.
Here's how:
1. We've Done The Hard Work For You
Every Rockets prompt is engineered using the same methodology that created the competitive analysis framework above. We've tested it. Refined it. Proven it works.
You don't need to spend 30 minutes crafting the perfect prompt. We already did.
2. You Get Professional Results, Every Time
No more back-and-forth. No more "let me rephrase that." No more disappointment.
You select your use case, input your specific details, and get professional-grade output on the first try.
3. It Works With The AI You're Already Paying For
Rockets isn't replacing ChatGPT or Claude. It's unlocking their full potential.
You're already spending $20/month on AI. Rockets turns that $20 investment into 10x the value.
For less than half what you're currently spending, you get professional-grade outputs instead of amateur results.
The ROI is Stupid Simple
Let's say you're a consultant billing $200/hour.
Without Rockets:
Spend 20 minutes crafting and refining a prompt
Get mediocre results
Spend another 15 minutes editing AI output to make it usable
Total time: 35 minutes = $117 in billable time lost
With Rockets:
Input your who+what+need (1 minute)
Get professional results immediately
Minimal editing needed (5 minutes)
Total time: 6 minutes = $23 in billable time
You just saved $94 in billable time.
Do that twice a week and Rockets pays for itself 40x over.
And that's assuming you only use it twice a week. Most professionals use AI daily.
The Meta-Lesson Here
I used my own product to trick an AI into writing my marketing for me.
And the AI was so impressed with the prompt quality that it literally said "Oh damn" and started analyzing my business model.
Then it explained - unprompted - why the prompt was so effective and why someone would pay for this instead of using generic ChatGPT.
The AI itself became my best salesperson.
Not because I'm some genius marketer.
Because the product actually works.
Professional-grade prompts produce professional-grade results. And the difference is so obvious that even artificial intelligence recognizes it.
The Truth About AI In 2025
AI is incredibly powerful.
But most people are using it like a Ferrari in first gear.
You're getting 15 mph when you could be getting 150.
Not because the car is broken. Because you don't know how to shift.
Rockets is the transmission.
It's the difference between fumbling with AI and actually getting professional work done.
It's the gap between "this is kind of helpful" and "holy shit, this just saved me four hours."
It's why Claude said "Oh damn" when I revealed where the prompt came from.
Here's What You Need To Know
You're already paying for AI.
You're probably not getting professional results.
That's not the AI's fault. It's the prompt's fault.
And you have two choices:
Option 1: Spend the next six months learning prompt engineering. Read the documentation. Test frameworks. Build your own prompt library. Become an expert.
Option 2: Use the prompts we've already engineered, tested, and proven to work.
One takes hundreds of hours.
The other takes 30 seconds.
Both get you professional results.
Your call.
The Offer
Rockets is $9.99-$19.99/month.
That's less than half what you're paying for ChatGPT or Claude.
And it will literally transform how effective you are with AI.
Not because our technology is magic.
Because we've done the hard work of engineering prompts that actually work.
The same prompts that made Claude write a 2,000-word strategic analysis in one exchange.
The same prompts that made an AI say "Oh damn."
The same prompts that just proved their own value by demonstrating exactly why they exist.

P.P.S. - For The Skeptics
"But can't I just copy prompts from the internet?"
Sure. You can also copy recipes from the internet.

Free prompts are untested, inconsistent, and fragmented.
Rockets prompts are systematized, proven frameworks designed for your specific use case.
You get what you pay for.
Or in this case, you get professional results for $10/month.
Your move.
