Thanks for putting this all together! That's really a comprehensive guide.
Still I added some comments and would add the following general tweaks:
- I would not advertise other similar sized products like Doppler or Infisical. Advertising the big ones like Vault, AWS, Azure etc. should be fine as they are way more complex to handle and with this also target other customers or making customers think of using a simpler product like ESC.
- Ensure that there is a reference to ESC (docs) in every section under "Top Features to Look for in Secrets Management Tools" to showcase ESC's capabilities

| Runtime integration capabilities should extend to application frameworks like Spring Boot, Django, and Express.js, enabling developers to access secrets through familiar programming patterns. [Cloud platforms](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/clouds/) including AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, and Google Cloud Run should provide optimized secret injection with minimal performance impact. Monitoring tools, service meshes, and other infrastructure components should integrate seamlessly to provide comprehensive observability and management capabilities. | ||

What does ESC support here? We should underline ESC's capabilities here by adding references to our docs as it is done in the previous sections.
I would also add some words around Bring your own key / customer managed keys here which is on the horizon for ESC: #15284
