A dashboard full of detections decides nothing for you. See how a weekly recommendation engine turns what your competitors did into one prioritized action (high, medium or low), why high priority arrives as an alert, and how to validate each recommendation before spending a cent.
Comparing your store to a single competitor is a sample of 1: if that one is an outlier, the conclusion comes out crooked. See how an aggregated, anonymous benchmark by segment works, how to read the median, P75 and P90, and what to do when the number shows you are below your sector.
A screenshot shows 10,000 followers and 40 active campaigns, but it never tells you whether the rival is growing 5% a month or quietly bleeding out. It is the daily series, collected without gaps, that turns a number into a trend: direction, cross-readings and the exact day your competitor’s strategy shifted.

Reading 5 of a rival’s creatives is easy; 300 a month is impossible by hand. See what a vision AI pulls from each ad (theme, offer, face, on-image text, palette), how the visual playbook turns that into a readable pattern, and what automated analysis still can’t do.
Every Monday someone loses the morning building a competitor slide by hand. See what an executive report needs (moves, promos, trend), how to generate a PDF and briefing straight from monitored data and how to turn the document into a decision agenda.
Comparing competitors in a single isolated week misleads: you capture one at its peak and another in its hangover and call it a pattern. A side by side view puts up to 4 competitors on the same 60 day ruler: cadence, campaign mix, dominant platform and share of voice. What to read in each column and the decision it drives.
The competitor cut its price on Friday night and you found out on Tuesday, from a customer. This guide shows what that delay costs and how to build the flow that fixes it: continuous detection, AI classification and an alert in the dashboard bell, in your inbox and on Slack, Telegram or WhatsApp.
