A share-of-voice number that survives the first hard question.

You and every tracked rival read through the identical engine, across press, social and AI answers. Same methodology on both sides, which is the only way the comparison means anything.

The problem

What this actually looks like today.

01

Two tools, two share-of-voice numbers

Each vendor scores sentiment its own way and counts syndication differently. The comparison was never valid, it just looked like it was.

02

You see that they moved, never why

A rival's share climbs four points. Volume tells you it happened. It doesn't tell you what the coverage argued, which is the part you could act on.

03

The opening closes before you use it

A competitor has a bad week. By the time it surfaces in a monthly report, the window to position against it has shut.

If your number and their number came from different methodologies, the comparison was decoration. One engine is what makes it evidence.

The week a rival slips

A competitor has a bad week. The opening lasts about ten days.

Most brands notice in the monthly report, which is roughly a week after it stopped being useful.

  1. Tue

    Their sentiment moves

    A tracked rival's negative coverage climbs sharply, read on the same engine as yours, so the shift is real rather than a methodology artefact.

  2. Wed

    Share of voice shifts

    Four points of category conversation move across press, social and AI answers, and you can see exactly which channel carried it.

  3. Wed

    The narrative names the cause

    Not only that they dropped, but what the coverage is actually arguing, which tells you whether this is a durable opening or a one-day story.

  4. Thu

    The AI answers follow

    Two engines begin hedging about them on a comparison prompt you both appear in. That shift outlasts the news cycle, because models update slowly.

  5. Thu

    Positioning, drafted

    Content Studio builds a competitive-angle piece from what is actually happening, without ever naming them.

  6. Fri

    Board-ready, with methodology

    The same numbers land in the report with how they were measured attached, so the claim survives the first sceptical question.

What you get

Built for this job specifically.

Share of voice, honestly

What is being argued about each brand, not just how loud each one is.

AI-answer competition

Who the engines recommend when a buyer asks your category's real questions.

Competitive-angle drafts

Positioning built from a rival's actual week, never naming them.

Pitch gaps

Outlets running them and not you, ranked by how winnable they look.

What this deliberately doesn't do

Every monitoring tool's page is wall-to-wall claims. Here is where the honest line sits.

  • We compare tracked rivals, not a vague industry averageYou configure who counts as a competitor. An 'industry benchmark' assembled from whatever was lying around isn't a real comparison.
  • Thin comparisons stay labelled thinBelow a reliability floor, a share-of-voice gap is noise. We say so rather than letting you take it into a board meeting.
Questions

About competitive intelligence.

How many competitors can we track?

It scales with your plan, and each tracked rival gets the full treatment: share of voice, sentiment, narrative and AI-answer comparison.

Can we track a competitor's hashtags too?

Yes. Competitor hashtag and keyword tracking runs on the same basis as your own, which is what makes share of conversation meaningful.

Do you name competitors in drafted content?

No. Competitive-angle drafts use the positioning opening without naming the rival, which is both better practice and safer.
