Competitor intelligence software

Competitor intelligence software built around product signals

Competitor intelligence software gathers information about competitors and turns it into analysis a team can act on. Most products in the category are built for sales enablement and monitor news, reviews and web pages broadly. RivalMove is competitor intelligence software focused on product signals: it monitors changelogs, release notes, blogs, GitHub releases and public roadmaps, classifies every update into strategic signals, and infers direction with the evidence attached.

What generic CI software gets wrong for product teams

  • It optimises for battlecards and deal support, not for roadmap decisions.
  • It aggregates news and social mentions, where product changes are announced last and least precisely.
  • It alerts on volume, so the loudest competitor looks like the most dangerous one.
  • It is priced and sold for enterprise procurement, out of reach for a small product team.
  • Its AI summaries rarely link back to a specific dated source.

How RivalMove works

  1. 1Watchlist Add competitors from a 700+ company catalog or by URL; limits depend on plan.
  2. 2Source aggregation Every public product source per competitor, scanned every four hours.
  3. 3Update extraction Dated, summarised, deduplicated entries.
  4. 4Signal classification Category, importance and signal level per update.
  5. 5Momentum and shifts Deterministic scoring per area and period; the strongest moves surface as strategic shifts.
  6. 6Intelligence Direction summaries, inferred roadmaps, price changes, analyst insights, reports.

Illustrative example

A founder tracks five direct competitors. Over a quarter RivalMove records 61 updates, 14 strategic signals and two major shifts — a pricing model change and an acquisition. The AI Analyst flags Security as an inactive category across all five: a possible white space. Each claim opens to the updates behind it; the white-space note is explicitly marked as an opportunity hypothesis.

Illustrative scenario. Real output is derived only from a competitor’s public updates and links to each of them.

Who it is for

Change alerts vs strategic intelligence

Alert-based software reports events. Strategic intelligence needs events to be classified, weighted, dated and compared over time before they mean anything.

RivalMove performs those steps consistently and shows its work: deterministic momentum, releases instead of lines, cadence normalisation, and AI inference that is labelled and sourced.

Frequently asked questions

What is competitor intelligence software?

Software that collects information about competitors from public sources and structures it into analysis — from simple change alerts to strategic direction. RivalMove covers the product-signal side of that spectrum.

What is the difference between competitor monitoring and competitive intelligence?

Monitoring is data collection: noticing that something changed. Intelligence is interpretation: classifying, weighting and comparing changes to draw conclusions. RivalMove does both and keeps the raw data visible.

Does RivalMove include battlecards or win/loss analysis?

No. It focuses on product signals and direction. Teams that need sales enablement usually pair it with, or choose, an enterprise CI suite.

How is pricing structured?

Free for one competitor without a card; paid plans from €6,99 per month, billed monthly or yearly through Stripe.

Is my data separated from other customers?

Yes. Each workspace is isolated; only the shared company catalog and public company pages are common, and those contain only public information.
