Competitor Intelligence, Rebuilt from the Ground Up

The new Competitors page answers the market questions teams ask first, then lets them drill into the evidence and forum-level detail they need next.

Your 10-second brief

The new page opens with an Executive Summary strip: four numbers that answer the questions you actually care about before you touch anything else.

Your Share

38%

of all mentions

Market Rank

#1

of 5 tracked brands

Closest Rival

Spider Farmer

28% share, closing

Highest Risk

THC Farmer

competitor leading by 12%

What each number tells you

Everything else on the page is deeper context behind these four numbers.

Your Share

What percentage of the conversation belongs to your brand across all tracked forums.

Market Rank

Where you sit relative to your tracked competitors by total share of voice.

Closest Rival

Who is breathing down your neck right now, and whether they're gaining or losing ground.

Highest Risk

The one forum where a competitor is outpacing you the most. Your most exposed front right now.

You and your nearest threat, side by side

Below the summary, the Competitive Position section separates your brand from the pack and puts your closest rival right next to you, not buried in a table row.

Your brand

Total mentions and share percentage
Sentiment split: positive / neutral / negative
Strongest platform by share
All keyword aliases rolled up into one count

Closest rival

Name and current momentum (up or down)
Their strongest platform
Dominant sentiment: positive or negative
Gaining ground? You'll see it immediately

If their community is frustrated with them, that's an opening. The rival card surfaces it without you having to go looking.

One table instead of three

The old page had three separate sections doing overlapping jobs: a Forum Activity table, a Conversation Share chart per brand, and a Recent Discussions feed. The new Platform Battleground table merges all of that into a single view.

What each column tells you

The Risk column is the one to pay attention to.

Owned Share %

How dominant your brand is on that platform.

Leading Competitor

Who's ahead of you there, or "No clear rival" if you own the conversation.

Gap

Percentage points separating you. Positive means you're ahead.

Movement

Whether volume is trending up or stable.

Risk

One of four statuses: lead (you own it), contested (race is close), risk (competitor outpacing you), or watch (low volume, worth monitoring).

Evidence

Post count backing up the numbers.

Click a row, read the actual conversations

Every platform row has a Mentions button. Click it and the Contextual Evidence panel loads inline with real posts from real growers, including the brand mentioned, sentiment tag, date, and a direct link to the thread.

01

Click Mentions on any platform row

02

The Contextual Evidence panel loads inline, scoped to that forum only

03

Read the post, see the sentiment tag, and click through to the original thread

You're not reading a sentiment percentage anymore. You're reading the post that drove it. If a grower on THC Farmer is comparing your inline controller against a competitor's, you can see exactly what they said and respond directly.

Competitor management is now its own section

In the old page, adding and removing competitors happened through a button tucked into the overview card. In the new page, there's a dedicated Tracked Entities section at the bottom, separated from the analysis so it doesn't clutter your intelligence view.

Owned aliases

See which keywords roll up to your brand with mention counts per alias

Tracked competitors

View all competitors and their current mention counts

Add / remove

Manage aliases and competitors without leaving the page

Time range now lives at the top

The 7D / 14D / 30D / 90D preset selector is now in the top bar on every dashboard page, including Competitors. The whole page updates when you switch the window: your share, rival data, platform breakdown, and evidence. No more hunting for date filters buried inside individual sections.

What's no longer there

A few things from the old page didn't make the cut.

Competitor overview cards

Replaced by the Competitive Position section with more signal and less scrolling.

Decorative illustration and long description

Replaced by the Executive Summary strip.

Conversation Share by Platform donut chart

Replaced by the Platform Battleground table with more context in a scannable format.

Recent Discussions feed with filter tabs

Replaced by the inline Contextual Evidence panel that loads per platform.
