The problem
Relevant market changes reach your desk too late.
Manual monitoring eats time
Product managers spend hours each week checking competitor websites, trade media, and tender portals.
Information is scattered
Relevant signals sit across press releases, patent databases, expert articles, and public industry updates. No one has the full picture.
Important changes get missed
New product announcements, regulatory shifts, or market moves are often noticed only when it is already late.
No system, just ad hoc work
Competitive intelligence usually happens on the side instead of systematically and traceably.

Process
From setup to a productive CI assistant in three steps
01 – Define sources and priorities
Together we clarify which competitors, sources, and topics matter and which open questions product management needs answered first. Typical effort: 1–2 alignment calls of 60 minutes.
02 – Set up and integrate the CI Agent
We build the assistant, connect the sources, and integrate delivery into your existing channels – Teams, Slack, Google Chat, Signal or email. Typical timeline: 4–6 weeks.
03 – Use it in production and expand
The CI Agent delivers structured updates from day one. Over time we expand sources, refine filters, and activate pattern detection.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about the Competitive Intelligence Agent
Which sources can the agent monitor?
In principle, any publicly available source – websites, press sections, trade media, databases, tender portals, regulatory pages, and association sites. We define together what is relevant.
How current is the information?
The agent checks sources daily or in shorter intervals depending on the source type. The digest is typically delivered in the morning.
Can we include internal data as well?
Yes, over time. In the first step we usually work with public sources. Internal data, such as CRM or win/loss analyses, can be added in a later phase.
How much effort does implementation require from us?
Very little. We need 1–2 short alignment calls to define sources, topics, and priorities. We handle the rest. Your team receives the output in a channel it already uses.
Which channels can receive the results?
The CI Agent delivers where your team already works: Microsoft Teams, Slack, Google Chat, Signal or email. You decide which channel fits best.
Is this suitable for regulated industries?
Yes. The agent only works with data you approve and runs in a controlled environment. For regulated companies, hosting and data residency can be aligned accordingly.
Do we have to start with a sprint?
A short alignment conversation on scope is recommended so the agent covers the right sources and topics from day one. If the need is already clear, we can also start directly.
