Competitor briefs on the days you pick · cancel any time
Competitor analysis for small businesses — the market research, done every morning, for less than an hour of your time
Competitor intelligence for small and local businesses: prices, promotions, reviews, hiring and new locations — watched (on a paid plan, up to daily; on the free weekly briefs, weekly) for any business with a Google listing, anywhere in the world. One email each morning on the days you pick — every day, Mon/Wed/Fri, or once a week — about three minutes to read, ending in what to do about it.

Regular price $79.99 per month, currently $39.99 per month.
One lost job or one lost customer is usually worth more than a month of the plan, so it only has to catch one move a month. $39.99/mo, month to month, cancel any time.

One finding from an illustrative sample brief — a med spa in Eagan, Minnesota. 33 complete briefs are published, free to read.
Added medical weight loss and muscle-building body sculpting
Competitor: Aspen Ridge Medspa · signal: website change
Aspen Ridge Medspa now advertises semaglutide-based medical weight loss alongside muscle-building body sculpting, positioned together as a single programme on their services page. This is a category you do not currently advertise, and it is the strongest repositioning signal in the Eagan market this week.
One email, on the mornings you choose, that covers:
- Price & promotion changes — the day a rival drops a price or swaps their homepage banner, it’s in your brief.
- Reviews — new reviews on you and on them, and how your reputation stacks up against every competitor you track.
- Your Gripe Gap™, weekly — for local businesses with Google reviews: what your reviewers praise that competitors’ reviewers complain about, counted and quoted. What it is →
- New competitors before they open — caught from reported leases and permits, “coming soon” signs and local press, checked weekly.
- Openings, hiring & expansion — job posts (on Indeed, LinkedIn and the rival’s own site) and permits show a new location weeks before the storefront does.
- Your map ranking — where you actually show up in Google searches made near your business, checked point by point around your neighborhood.
- Your own Google listing — checked weekly: a warning if it shows closed or your hours, phone or address changed.
- Reviews waiting for your reply — new Google reviews still waiting for your reply, each with a suggested reply to copy (we never post).
- See the change — a small picture of a rival’s page when it changes, with the change highlighted.
- A monthly scorecard — once a month, you beside each rival on rating, reviews and replies.
- What to do about it — every finding comes with a recommended action, ranked by urgency. Actions, not links.
- A monthly summary — on paid plans, once a month: what your competitors changed, counted by kind and dated with sources, plus your new reviews. A quiet month says so in one line.
- Your search standing — on paid plans, a page on your dashboard: where you and your competitors rank on Google for the searches your customers make, the Google ads they run, how fast your site loads on a phone, a website checklist and estimated search traffic. Updated every week.
You don’t have to find the competitors yourself. We seat them from your Google listing on day one — up to 10 on Starter — and you can swap any of them.
Check us, don’t trust us.

One plan covers most small businesses.
Same market research either way — the plan only changes how many businesses you point it at. Each location counts as one: more than one location? Tap “see the other plans” below. A location is its Google listing, so one office with three dentists or stylists is one business.
Annual is paid once a year, up front — Starter is $404.99 a year, $74.89 less than 12 months. Offered on Starter, Owner Pro and Enterprise. Multi-location bills monthly. Client businesses are always billed monthly.
