Build a Price and Competitor Monitoring System
Stay automatically updated on competitor pricing, product changes, and positioning shifts — without manual checking or paying for expensive intelligence tools.
Time Required
4–6 hrs setup
Expected Result
A weekly automated intelligence report covering competitor pricing changes, new features, and positioning shifts delivered to your inbox.
Recommended Tools
Map Your Competitors and Pages to Monitor
List your top 5–10 competitors and the specific pages that matter: pricing pages, product pages, changelog pages, and job postings (which signal strategic intent).
Set Up Web Monitoring
Use Make or Zapier with a webpage monitoring tool to check each page for changes daily. Route any detected changes to a central Airtable log.
Monitor Social and News
Set up Brand24 to track all competitor brand mentions across social, news, and review sites. Configure daily digest delivery.
Synthesize Weekly Intelligence
Every Monday, route the week's change log and Brand24 digest to Claude with a prompt to synthesize: what changed, why it might matter, and what you should consider doing in response.
Deliver the Intelligence Brief
Format the synthesized report as a Notion page or email and deliver it to the relevant team members every Monday morning.
