## Creation Workflow

### Step 1: Choose Priority Level

Start with P0 items, then move to P1, P2, P3.

### Step 2: Select Template

Use appropriate template from `docs/DOCUMENTATION_TEMPLATES.md`:

- Competitor profiles → Competitor Profile Template
- Product features → Product Feature Template
- Comparison pages → Comparison Page Template
- Product pages → Product Page Template
- Industry pages → Industry Page Template

### Step 3: Gather Information

- **For competitors:** Check comparison page data (`v2/data/competitors.php`)
- **For features:** Check product pages and system documentation
- **For pages:** Check existing PHP files and content

### Step 4: Create Documentation

1. Copy template
2. Fill in all sections
3. Add cross-references
4. Add to inventory files
5. Update "Last Updated" date (use `date +%Y-%m-%d`)

### Step 5: Validate

1. Run validation scripts
2. Check cross-references
3. Verify links
4. Update related documentation

## Estimated Effort

### Competitor Profiles

- **Total:** 18-28 hours

### Grand Total
