Use Cases

Local Business

Outperform Nearby Competitors

A med spa tracks 3 competitors in their city. Market Intel reveals Competitor A gets 4x engagement on before/after reels but rarely posts carousels. AI suggests filling the carousel gap to capture that audience.

Content Creator

Find Content Format Gaps

A fitness influencer tracks 5 competitors and discovers none post educational carousels on weekends. The Shareability Score confirms carousels drive the most saves — an opportunity to own that format and time slot.

Agency

Client Competitive Reports

A marketing agency uses Market Intel to generate competitive analysis for client strategy meetings. The leaderboard and AI opportunities provide data-backed recommendations instead of gut feelings.

Market Intel Questions

What metrics does Market Intel track for competitors?+

Market Intel tracks follower count, posting frequency, engagement rate (likes + comments / followers), media count, bio changes, and content type distribution (images vs. reels vs. carousels). Data is pulled via Instagram's Business Discovery API across 1-day, 7-day, 30-day, and 90-day comparison windows.

How many competitors can I track?+

It depends on your plan. Free users can track 1 competitor, Creator gets 3, Professional gets 5, and Business gets up to 10 competitors. Each competitor is monitored independently with full engagement metrics and AI insights.

How often does competitor data refresh?+

Data refreshes on demand when you open Market Intel or click the refresh button. The system pulls fresh data from Instagram's Business Discovery API each time. Historical comparison data is stored so you can track trends across 1, 7, 30, and 90-day windows.

What is the Shareability Score?+

Shareability Score is a proprietary metric that evaluates how likely a competitor's content is to be shared based on engagement velocity, comment-to-like ratio, and content format. Higher scores indicate content strategies that drive organic reach beyond the follower base.

How does AI opportunity identification work?+

GPT-5 analyzes the gap between your metrics and your competitors' metrics across all dimensions. It identifies specific opportunities like "Competitor X posts 3x more reels than you but gets lower engagement" or "Competitor Y's engagement drops on weekends — post then for less competition."

Does tracking competitors violate their privacy?+

No. Market Intel uses Instagram's official Business Discovery API, which only accesses publicly available data from business and creator accounts. This is the same data anyone can see by visiting the profile. No private messages, stories analytics, or non-public data is accessed.
