Use cases / Competitor monitoring

Know what your competitors announce, the hour they announce it

Product launches, pricing changes, hires, and partnerships show up first on company pages and on the accounts of founders and executives. Checking them by hand is slow and easy to forget.

How teams set it up

1. Track the accounts. One tracker per competitor’s LinkedIn company page (company/name) and per executive or product account on X.
2. Choose the cadence by value. A main competitor every hour; a long tail every 6 or 12 hours. Quiet accounts are checked less often on their own, so a long list stays cheap.
3. Route new posts. Point a webhook at a small function that posts to a Slack channel, tags the post with the competitor’s name, and stores it for a weekly summary.

What it costs

A LinkedIn company page checked every 6 hours costs at most 2,400 credits a month in checks, plus 2 per post. Ten such competitors fit in a Pro plan with room left. Use the estimate endpoint or the console to see the figure for each account before you add it.
