AI agent for business analysts
Competitor Change Monitor Agent
A weekly verified digest of competitor changes with impact ratings
What it does
Competitors change prices, launch features and shift messaging all the time, and moves are often noticed by chance and reported without checking. Each week this agent checks a set list of competitor sources, such as pricing pages, release notes, press releases and job postings, and compares them with the last snapshot. Each change is logged with source and date. Before reporting, it verifies the change with a second source or a fresh look at the page, and marks anything unverified. A temporary promotion is logged with its end date, not as a price change. It rates likely impact on open deals or products and drafts a short digest. The manager decides which changes need a response.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
