# Analyze Competitor Keyword Gaps

Keyword gap analysis compares your keyword footprint against competitors to find terms they rank for that you do not. These gaps represent proven traffic opportunities — if a competitor ranks for a keyword, it means there is real search demand and the topic is monetizable in your niche.

ToolRouter's find_keywords skill discovers the keyword landscape while score_opportunities evaluates each gap by potential traffic value, ranking difficulty, and alignment with your business goals. Together they produce a prioritized list of keyword gaps worth pursuing.

This analysis is the fastest way to expand your organic traffic because you are targeting proven keywords rather than guessing. It is particularly effective when entering a market where competitors have already done the keyword research for you, after a competitor rebrands or changes strategy leaving rankings vulnerable, and when you have plateaued on your existing keyword targets and need new growth vectors.
