Direct peers

• Asana: Public work-management platform offering roadmap, planning, and goal-tracking templates for B2B teams. Directly comparable to New Dawn's SMART ROADMAPS offering, with the difference that Asana is a large, well-funded incumbent with deep enterprise penetration.
• Monday.com: Work OS platform with extensive roadmap, project, and workflow templates sold B2B with white-label-style customization. Highly comparable in product category and target buyer, though at vastly greater scale and with much broader integrations.
• Notion: Workspace platform with template marketplace, AI features, and roadmap views widely used by both SMEs and enterprises. Comparable to New Dawn's curated-template-plus-AI positioning, though Notion's collaboration surface is far broader.
• ClickUp: All-in-one productivity platform with roadmap, docs, goals, and AI assistance, sold B2B. Comparable to SMART ROADMAPS in offering structured planning templates combined with AI, with a more established user base.
• Productboard: Product roadmap and prioritization platform used by product teams. Directly comparable to the roadmap-as-a-service core of SMART ROADMAPS, though Productboard specializes in product management rather than cross-vertical business planning.
• Roadmunk: Roadmap planning and visualization tool for product and strategy teams. Comparable to SMART ROADMAPS in its roadmap-first positioning, though Roadmunk is purpose-built for product roadmaps while New Dawn extends across broader business/sustainability use cases.
• Coda: Docs-plus-platform product with template gallery and AI features, sold B2B. Comparable to New Dawn's template-driven platform approach and curated content model, with Coda's pack/automation ecosystem being notably more mature.

Broad incumbents

• Atlassian (Jira/Confluence): Enterprise incumbent offering Jira (roadmaps, planning) and Confluence (knowledge management), both of which overlap with SMART ROADMAPS. Atlassian represents the scaled, deeply integrated alternative any buyer would evaluate against New Dawn.
• Miro: Visual collaboration platform widely used for roadmap workshops, strategy mapping, and planning. Comparable in being a B2B canvas for structuring complex roadmaps, though Miro emphasizes real-time whiteboarding rather than curated content.

Emerging players

• Quantive (formerly Gtmhub): Strategy execution and OKR/roadmap platform with AI assistance for enterprise planning. Comparable to SMART ROADMAPS in fusing structured planning templates with AI-driven insights, with a sharper focus on the OKR/goals category.
